In Tottenham (N17) the split is 57% flats to 43% houses over 18,113 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
The renter-heavy mix here (29% owned, 36% privately rented) means a N17 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Tottenham substrates run to precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in N17, often with surface conduit, the pattern behind 18,113 households inside the N17 neighbourhood. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Tottenham gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, where 29% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the mistake that costs a N17 customer twice.
Tottenham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — stadium district, Hale regeneration and long Victorian terraces on the High Road — which is why a N17 quote is not a Haringey average.
Match-day closures and parking bans, red routes on the High Road and lift booking at Hale Village. Nearest station is Tottenham Hale (Victoria, Greater Anglia), and 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.
