Census 2021 puts Nunhead at 7,127 households with a median age of 35.1. The mainly Victorian stock is social-housing-led, which is why 42% houses and 58% flats need different handling in SE15.
Owner-occupation runs at 41% in Nunhead, so alongside the 20% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Nunhead, often with surface conduit — measured on the walk in from Nunhead (Southeastern) rather than assumed from a map, so the fixing that matters in Nunhead is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in SE15, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — the reality on the streets around Nunhead Cemetery.

Steep hill streets, narrow railway bridges and permit bays near the station. Nearest station is Nunhead (Southeastern), and one fitter for a typical multi-item visit; two where anything crosses 30kg or has to be carried up a shared stairwell.
