Walk Bellingham and Downham from Beckenham Place Park nearby outwards and the post-war pattern is obvious: 32% of the 3,351 households in SE6 live in flats, 68% in houses.
Private renting sits at 22% and owner-occupation at 45%; the first group books TV mounting at short notice, the second plans it.
Bellingham and Downham substrates run to precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in SE6, often with surface conduit — with 33% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because in SE6, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — the pattern behind 3,351 households inside the SE6 neighbourhood is the mistake that costs a SE6 customer twice.
Two streets can behave very differently in Bellingham and Downham: two large interwar cottage estates built by the LCC, with wide green verges. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Bellingham and Downham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Wide estate roads with kerbside parking and level access — easy for a Luton. Nearest station is Bellingham (Southeastern), and one fitter up to 43 inches, two for anything larger or where the screen has to go up a stairwell.
