Walk Bexleyheath from Red House, William Morris's home outwards and the inter-war pattern is obvious: 33% of the 3,586 households in DA6 live in flats, 67% in houses.
21% of households rent privately and 74% own, which is why bath and shower screen fitting demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Walls are solid London stock brick; locally that also means some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment — where 74% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fixing that matters in Bexleyheath is chosen on site — the usual failure here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body on these streets — and broadway timed loading and pedestrian zones; driveways elsewhere.
Two streets can behave very differently in Bexleyheath: the Broadway shopping centre, the clock tower and William Morris's Red House. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Bexleyheath is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Broadway timed loading and pedestrian zones; driveways elsewhere. Nearest station is Bexleyheath (Southeastern), and one fitter for a pivot or fixed screen; two for sliding and bi-fold enclosures and any wet-room panel over 190cm, which is awkward to hold plumb alone.
