In Putney (SW15) the split is 72% flats to 28% houses over 20,613 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
Because 38% of Putney is privately rented and 14% socially rented, a lot of SW15 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Walls are dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in SW15, with metal stud partitions between rooms, and boat race day closures, putney high street bus gate and mansion blocks with small lifts, so the fixing that matters in Putney is chosen on site — the usual failure here is Putney gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, where 47% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Putney is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — the Boat Race start, the embankment rowing clubs and the high street shops — which is why a SW15 quote is not a Wandsworth average.
On access, boat Race day closures, Putney High Street bus gate and mansion blocks with small lifts — one reason a two-person crew and a Luton for flats; three or four crew and two vans for houses with lofts, cellars or garages. Fitters travelling in use Putney (South Western).
