In Roehampton (SW15) the split is 75% flats to 25% houses over 9,539 households, and the stock is inter-war.
Because 25% of Roehampton is privately rented and 40% socially rented, a lot of SW15 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Roehampton substrates run to precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SW15, often with surface conduit, measured on the walk in from Barnes (South Western) rather than assumed from a map. 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 Roehampton stock goes, the reality on the streets around The Alton Estate and Richmond Park is the mistake that costs a SW15 customer twice.
The Alton Estate's modernist slabs beside Richmond Park's Roehampton Gate. That character decides the practical detail of flat and apartment clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. Roehampton is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, slab blocks with limited lifts, long walkway carries and steep estate approaches — one reason 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. Fitters travelling in use Barnes (South Western).
