The SW18 stock around The Southfields Grid and the AELTC entrance is mainly Edwardian. ONS records 44% flats, 56% houses and 3,815 households in Southfields.
33% of households rent privately and 61% own, which is why clearance services demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Walls are some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick — and with 33% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, so the fixing that matters in Southfields is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in SW18, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — which is why London Borough of Wandsworth kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Two streets can behave very differently in Southfields: the Grid — a planned Edwardian estate that becomes the Wimbledon gateway each June. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Southfields is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Championship-fortnight parking bans, narrow Grid streets and permit bays. Nearest station is Southfields (District), 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.
