Walk Hornsey from Hornsey Town Hall outwards and the mainly Victorian pattern is obvious: 67% of the 9,110 households in N8 live in flats, 33% in houses.
Private renting sits at 28% and owner-occupation at 48%; the first group books fridge and freezer disposal at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are lath and plaster over timber studs in N8, with solid brick on the party and external walls — measured on the walk in from Hornsey (Great Northern) rather than assumed from a map, so the fixing that matters in Hornsey is chosen on site — the usual failure here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster in Hornsey, which crumbles the key and drops the panel — the pattern behind 9,110 households inside the N8 neighbourhood.
Two streets can behave very differently in Hornsey: station streets and the old town hall between Crouch End and Wood Green. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Hornsey is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Railway bridges with height limits, narrow terraced streets and permit bays. Nearest station is Hornsey (Great Northern), 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.
