5,741 households sit inside the IG6 neighbourhood covering Hainault. The build is post-war, the tenure profile owner-occupier-led, and 25% of those homes are flats.
Because 17% of Hainault is privately rented and 25% socially rented, a lot of IG6 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Hainault substrates run to some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — and solid London stock brick, measured on the walk in from Hainault (Central) rather than assumed from a map. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Hainault gives us fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, where 58% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the mistake that costs a IG6 customer twice.
Post-war LCC estate housing beside Hainault Forest Country Park. That character decides the practical detail of shed clearance and removal here far more than the borough boundary does. Hainault is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, wide estate roads with easy parking and level access to most homes — one reason 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. Fitters travelling in use Hainault (Central).
