3,519 households sit inside the N20 neighbourhood covering Totteridge. The build is mixed-era, the tenure profile owner-occupier-led, and 12% of those homes are flats.
Because 14% of Totteridge is privately rented and 11% socially rented, a lot of N20 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect cavity brickwork outside — and timber stud partitions inside, which is why London Borough of Barnet kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded behind the plaster in N20. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, as the Totteridge stock goes, and with 14% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is the fault we are called back to undo.
Totteridge 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 — green-belt lane of large houses, paddocks and a village pond — which is why a N20 quote is not a Barnet average.
Long gravel drives, narrow lanes without passing places and gated entrances. Nearest station is Totteridge & Whetstone (Northern), at the foot of Totteridge Lane, and four crew and a supervisor on a standard floor clearance, scaled up for phased overnight work.
