Census 2021 puts Westbourne Park at 3,175 households with a median age of 35.6. The post-war stock is social-housing-led, which is why 6% houses and 94% flats need different handling in W10.
Private renting sits at 16% and owner-occupation at 13%; the first group books cat flap fitting at short notice, the second plans it.
Westbourne Park substrates run to precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Westbourne Park, often with surface conduit — the pattern behind 3,175 households inside the W10 neighbourhood. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because in W10, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — measured on the walk in from Westbourne Park (Circle, Hammersmith & City) rather than assumed from a map is the mistake that costs a W10 customer twice.
Two streets can behave very differently in Westbourne Park: canal-side streets between Notting Hill and Paddington with a strong market culture. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Westbourne Park sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Canal bridges limit turning, resident bays are permit-only and towpath access is on foot. Nearest station is Westbourne Park (Circle, Hammersmith & City), and one fitter for doors and panels; two where a wall tunnel is core-drilled and the debris has to be carried out of a flat.
