10,311 households sit inside the E13 neighbourhood covering Plaistow. The build is mainly Victorian, the tenure profile social-housing-led, and 43% of those homes are flats.
Because 33% of Plaistow is privately rented and 33% socially rented, a lot of E13 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Walls are often with surface conduit — and precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, with 33% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first, so the fixing that matters in Plaistow is chosen on site — the usual failure here is Plaistow gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, which is what a 43% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Plaistow actually produces.
Dense terraced housing, Balaam Street's shops and a strong community feel. That character decides the practical detail of shed clearance and removal here far more than the borough boundary does. Plaistow 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: very narrow streets, no off-street parking and permit bays throughout. Plaistow (District, Hammersmith & City) is the nearest station, and two crew and a Luton on a standard timber shed; three crew where the shed is a workshop size, the base is concrete or the only route out is through the house.
