In Sidcup (DA15) the split is 46% flats to 54% houses over 8,640 households, and the stock is inter-war.
Because 20% of Sidcup is privately rented and 12% socially rented, a lot of DA15 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Sidcup substrates run to cavity brickwork outside — and timber stud partitions inside, where 68% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Sidcup gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, which is what a 46% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Sidcup actually produces is the mistake that costs a DA15 customer twice.
Sidcup 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 — a busy high street, Lamorbey Park and the Rose Bruford campus — which is why a DA15 quote is not a Bexley average.
Driveways throughout; the high street is a red route with short bays. Nearest station is Sidcup (Southeastern), and two crew and a Luton on most garden clearances; three crew and a tipper where the load is mainly soil, turf or rubble and weight rather than volume decides the run.
