3,586 households sit inside the NW10 neighbourhood covering Neasden. The build is inter-war, the tenure profile renter-heavy, and 51% of those homes are flats.
With 47% private renting against 35% owner-occupied, most NW10 bookings land on a move-in day rather than a weekend.
Walls are lath and plaster over timber studs in Neasden, with solid brick on the party and external walls, with 19% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first, so the fixing that matters in Neasden is chosen on site — the usual failure here is which crumbles the key and drops the panel — and a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster, the reality on the streets around BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir.
The Hindu temple, the North Circular and industrial estates beside 1930s housing. That character decides the practical detail of rubbish removal here far more than the borough boundary does. Neasden is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: north Circular access is difficult; side streets are wide with driveways. Neasden (Jubilee) is the nearest station, and one person and a car for boot-loads; two crew and a 3.5-tonne Luton for anything from a quarter-load upward.
