The SW19 stock around Wimbledon Park lake and the All England Club next door is mainly Edwardian. ONS records 42% flats, 58% houses and 3,512 households in Wimbledon Park.
30% of households rent privately and 61% own, which is why rubbish removal demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Walls are solid London stock brick in Wimbledon Park, some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — which is what a 42% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Wimbledon Park actually produces, so the fixing that matters in Wimbledon Park is chosen on site — the usual failure here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — and championships fortnight parking bans, steep hill streets and shared side entrances to the maisonettes.
Two streets can behave very differently in Wimbledon Park: the park and lake below the tennis grounds, with Edwardian streets on the slope down to Southfields. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Wimbledon Park is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, championships fortnight parking bans, steep hill streets and shared side entrances to the maisonettes — one reason two crew and a 3.5-tonne Luton as standard; heavy rubble loads run below the legal weight limit rather than filling the space. Fitters travelling in use Wimbledon Park (District).
