Walls are with metal stud partitions between rooms — and dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork, which is why London Borough of Hounslow kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded, so the fixing that matters in Chiswick is chosen on site — the usual failure here is Chiswick gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, the reality on the streets around Chiswick House and Gardens.
Chiswick is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
