The SW6 stock around Craven Cottage and Fulham Palace is mainly Victorian. ONS records 69% flats, 31% houses and 13,172 households in Fulham.
Owner-occupation runs at 41% in Fulham, so alongside the 39% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year behind the plaster in SW6. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why in SW6, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — and with 34% one-person households in Fulham, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is the fault we are called back to undo.
Two streets can behave very differently in Fulham: rows of two-storey Victorian terraces, the Green's cafés and two football grounds. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Fulham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, match-day closures, very tight CPZ hours and narrow streets parked both sides — one reason two operatives with a 3.5t tipper as standard, scaling to four operatives and a 7.5t vehicle on strip-outs or where the waste has to be barrowed a long way to the frontage. Fitters travelling in use Parsons Green (District).
