The WC1 stock around Lincoln's Inn Fields is post-war. ONS records 95% flats, 5% houses and 3,090 households in Holborn.
30% of households rent privately and 18% own, which is why furniture disposal demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in WC1, often with surface conduit — and with 30% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, so the fixing that matters in Holborn is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in WC1, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — the pattern behind 3,090 households inside the WC1 neighbourhood.
Two streets can behave very differently in Holborn: legal London — the Inns of Court, Lincoln's Inn Fields and Sicilian Avenue. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Holborn sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
On access, inns of Court gate access, weekday loading windows and listed staircases — one reason two crew and a Luton van; three where a wardrobe or corner sofa has to come down a shared stairwell. Fitters travelling in use Holborn (Central, Piccadilly).
