In Upton Park (E13) the split is 36% flats to 64% houses over 2,564 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
Because 43% of Upton Park is privately rented and 15% socially rented, a lot of E13 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick, measured on the walk in from Upton Park (District, Hammersmith & City) rather than assumed from a map behind the plaster in E13. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Upton Park gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, where 42% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the fault we are called back to undo.
Upton Park 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 — green Street's sari shops and jewellers — one of London's great shopping streets — which is why a E13 quote is not a Newham average.
Green Street loading is tightly timed; side streets are permit-only and narrow. Nearest station is Upton Park (District, Hammersmith & City), and one person and a car for boot-loads; two crew and a 3.5-tonne Luton for anything from a quarter-load upward.
