Walk Euston from Euston Station and the Regent's Park Estate outwards and the Georgian and early Victorian pattern is obvious: 96% of the 2,719 households in NW1 live in flats, 4% in houses.
Private renting sits at 20% and owner-occupation at 12%; the first group books business clearance at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Euston, often with surface conduit — a median age of 30 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here, so the fixing that matters in Euston is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in NW1, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — and with 35% one-person households in Euston, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Two streets can behave very differently in Euston: station forecourt, HS2 works and the Regent's Park Estate behind. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Euston sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
HS2 construction diversions, red routes on Euston Road and estate blocks with single small lifts. Nearest station is Euston (Northern, Victoria, National Rail), and two crew and a Luton on a small office or shop unit; three to four crew with a 7.5-tonne vehicle on retail strip-outs, warehouses and racking removals.
