Census 2021 puts Lee at 6,151 households with a median age of 37.6. The mainly Victorian stock is owner-occupier-led, which is why 60% houses and 39% flats need different handling in SE12.
22% of households rent privately and 60% own, which is why warehouse clearance demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Walls are solid London stock brick in Lee, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and with 22% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, so the fixing that matters in Lee is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in SE12, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — measured on the walk in from Lee (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map.
Two streets can behave very differently in Lee: manor House library, Lee Green's shops and streets of interwar houses. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Lee is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Driveways on many streets; Lee High Road is a red route with short bays. Nearest station is Lee (Southeastern), and four operatives with a 7.5t tail-lift vehicle on a standard unit, scaling to six with a second vehicle where the handover date is tight.
