Walk Crayford from Crayford Greyhound Stadium outwards and the mainly Victorian pattern is obvious: 28% of the 9,135 households in DA1 live in flats, 72% in houses.
16% of households rent privately and 57% own, which is why fridge and freezer disposal demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Expect solid London stock brick; locally that also means some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — the reality on the streets around Crayford Greyhound Stadium behind the plaster in DA1. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — and with 26% one-person households in Crayford, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is the fault we are called back to undo.
Two streets can behave very differently in Crayford: the Cray river, the greyhound stadium and retail parks on the Dartford border. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Crayford is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Wide roads, driveways and retail-park service access; the town centre is one-way. Nearest station is Crayford (Southeastern), and one or two crew depending on access; American-style and full-height units on an upper floor with no lift are booked as a two-person job as standard.
