Walk Dagenham East and Rush Green from Eastbrookend Country Park outwards and the post-war pattern is obvious: 26% of the 2,353 households in RM10 live in flats, 74% in houses.
29% of households rent privately and 56% own, which is why blinds and curtain fitting demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Dagenham East and Rush Green substrates run to timber stud partitions inside; locally that also means cavity brickwork outside — and with 23% one-person households in Dagenham East and Rush Green, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because in RM10, a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air — which is why London Borough of Barking and Dagenham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the mistake that costs a RM10 customer twice.
