The EC2 stock around Finsbury Circus Gardens is recent new-build. ONS records 98% flats, 2% houses and 4,914 households in Moorgate.
Private renting sits at 48% and owner-occupation at 37%; the first group books bath and shower screen fitting at short notice, the second plans it.
Expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — and with 51% one-person households in Moorgate, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site behind the plaster in EC2. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why in EC2, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — with 15% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is the fault we are called back to undo.
Two streets can behave very differently in Moorgate: office core around Finsbury Circus and Liverpool Street, with a small resident population above the shops. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Moorgate sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Congestion Charge, weekday loading windows before 10:00, and building managers who require insurance documents. Nearest station is Moorgate (Northern, Elizabeth line), 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.
