In Sands End (SW6) the split is 89% flats to 11% houses over 4,346 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
The renter-heavy mix here (37% owned, 36% privately rented) means a SW6 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Sands End substrates run to with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, measured on the walk in from Imperial Wharf (Overground) rather than assumed from a map. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Sands End gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, which is what a 89% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Sands End actually produces is the mistake that costs a SW6 customer twice.
Sands End 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 — riverside Fulham — old gasworks land rebuilt as apartment quarters beside Victorian terraces — which is why a SW6 quote is not a Hammersmith and Fulham average.
On access, concierge sign-in, booked goods lifts and estate loading bays on the riverside blocks — one reason two to four operatives depending on room count, scaling to a second team on a full-floor or full-closure clearance where the schedule is set by a redevelopment date. Fitters travelling in use Imperial Wharf (Overground).
