Walk Mayfair from Berkeley Square outwards and the mixed-era pattern is obvious: 88% of the 3,555 households in W1 live in flats, 12% in houses.
57% of households rent privately and 32% own, which is why blinds and curtain fitting demand here peaks around tenancy changeovers and completion dates.
Walls are dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in W1, with metal stud partitions between rooms — and with 57% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does, so the fixing that matters in Mayfair is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in W1, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — and with 47% one-person households in Mayfair, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site.
Two streets can behave very differently in Mayfair: grosvenor and Berkeley squares, private members' clubs and the flagship stores of Bond Street. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Mayfair sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Extremely tight kerbside, mews arches under 2.1m and listed interiors needing floor and stair protection. Nearest station is Bond Street (Central, Jubilee, Elizabeth line), and one fitter for standard windows; two for bent bay tracks or full-height stairwell blinds.
