Census 2021 puts Earlsfield at 7,243 households with a median age of 33.2. The mainly Victorian stock is mixed-tenure, which is why 39% houses and 61% flats need different handling in SW18.
Private renting sits at 32% and owner-occupation at 51%; the first group books house and flat clearance at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in Earlsfield, with metal stud partitions between rooms — the reality on the streets around King George's Park, so the fixing that matters in Earlsfield is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in SW18, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — which is why London Borough of Wandsworth kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Two streets can behave very differently in Earlsfield: garratt Lane's independents and quiet grids of Victorian terraces. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Earlsfield is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Narrow terraced streets, permit bays and railway-bridge height limits. Nearest station is Earlsfield (South Western), and a two-person crew and a Luton for flats; three or four crew and two vans for houses with lofts, cellars or garages.
