Walk Teddington from Teddington Lock and Bushy Park outwards and the mainly Victorian pattern is obvious: 46% of the 10,821 households in TW11 live in flats, 54% in houses.
Private renting sits at 25% and owner-occupation at 65%; the first group books clearance services at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs — measured on the walk in from Teddington (South Western) rather than assumed from a map, so the fixing that matters in Teddington is chosen on site — the usual failure here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster in Teddington, which crumbles the key and drops the panel — which is why London Borough of Richmond upon Thames kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Two streets can behave very differently in Teddington: the lock, a village high street and Bushy Park on the doorstep. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Teddington 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: narrow high street with timed loading; residential roads mostly have driveways. Teddington (South Western) 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.
