The NW10 stock around BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir is inter-war. ONS records 51% flats, 49% houses and 3,586 households in Neasden.
Private renting sits at 47% and owner-occupation at 35%; the first group books house and flat clearance at short notice, the second plans it.
Neasden substrates run to with solid brick on the party and external walls, over lath and plaster over timber studs — which is what a 51% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Neasden actually produces. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster; locally that also means which crumbles the key and drops the panel — with 19% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is the mistake that costs a NW10 customer twice.
Two streets can behave very differently in Neasden: the Hindu temple, the North Circular and industrial estates beside 1930s housing. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Neasden is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
North Circular access is difficult; side streets are wide with driveways. Nearest station is Neasden (Jubilee), and a two-person crew and a Luton for flats; three or four crew and two vans for houses with lofts, cellars or garages.
