The SE10 stock around The O2 Arena is recent new-build. ONS records 78% flats, 22% houses and 3,769 households in Greenwich Peninsula.
Owner-occupation runs at 44% in Greenwich Peninsula, so alongside the 25% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SE10, often with surface conduit — where 44% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fixing that matters in Greenwich Peninsula is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in SE10, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — the pattern behind 3,769 households inside the SE10 neighbourhood.
Two streets can behave very differently in Greenwich Peninsula: the O2, the cable car and a new district of towers on the old gasworks. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Greenwich Peninsula is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: event-day congestion, estate permits and strict lift-booking windows in every block. North Greenwich (Jubilee) is the nearest station, and standard crews are two people with a 3.5-tonne Luton; bigger clears run two vans or return the same day rather than overfilling.
