The SE6 stock around The Catford Cat is mainly Victorian. ONS records 62% flats, 38% houses and 6,981 households in Catford.
Private renting sits at 33% and owner-occupation at 42%; the first group books rubbish removal at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — where 42% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fixing that matters in Catford is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in SE6, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — measured on the walk in from Catford (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map.
Two streets can behave very differently in Catford: the fibreglass cat, the Broadway theatre and the Rushey Green shops. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Catford is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
South Circular red route, shopping-centre service yards and permit bays behind. Nearest station is Catford (Southeastern), and one person and a car for boot-loads; two crew and a 3.5-tonne Luton for anything from a quarter-load upward.
