Census 2021 puts Peckham at 24,172 households with a median age of 33.2. The Georgian and early Victorian stock is social-housing-led, which is why 28% houses and 72% flats need different handling in SE15.
23% of households rent privately and 31% own, which is why warehouse clearance demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Peckham substrates run to often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork — the reality on the streets around Peckham Rye Park and the Bussey Building. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because in SE15, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — measured on the walk in from Peckham Rye (Overground, Thameslink) rather than assumed from a map is the mistake that costs a SE15 customer twice.
Two streets can behave very differently in Peckham: rye Lane's markets, rooftop bars and Georgian terraces around Peckham Rye. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Peckham sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Rye Lane bus gates, LTN filters and terraced streets with permit bays. Nearest station is Peckham Rye (Overground, Thameslink), 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.
