4,593 households sit inside the E8 neighbourhood covering London Fields. The build is mainly Victorian, the tenure profile renter-heavy, and 81% of those homes are flats.
Because 37% of London Fields is privately rented and 35% socially rented, a lot of E8 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
London Fields substrates run to often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, the pattern behind 4,593 households inside the E8 neighbourhood. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, as the London Fields stock goes, the reality on the streets around London Fields Lido is the mistake that costs a E8 customer twice.
London Fields 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 — broadway Market, the lido and the most photographed terraces in east London — which is why a E8 quote is not a Hackney average.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: market-day closures on Saturdays, modal filters and no off-street parking. London Fields (Overground) is the nearest station, and two crew and a Luton for a studio or one-bed; three crew and a second van on two- and three-bedroom apartments or any duplex.
