Walk Kingsbury from Fryent Country Park outwards and the inter-war pattern is obvious: 34% of the 9,689 households in NW9 live in flats, 66% in houses.
Private renting sits at 32% and owner-occupation at 56%; the first group books wardrobe assembly at short notice, the second plans it.
Kingsbury substrates run to some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick — which is what a 34% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Kingsbury actually produces. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because in NW9, fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body — and with 20% one-person households in Kingsbury, one adult is usually the only pair of hands on site is the mistake that costs a NW9 customer twice.
Two streets can behave very differently in Kingsbury: metroland semis, a diverse high road and Fryent Country Park's hills. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Kingsbury is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, driveway parking throughout; the high road has short loading bays only — one reason one fitter for a single wardrobe; two for fitted bay systems, sliding-door units and anything carried up a shared stairwell. Fitters travelling in use Kingsbury (Jubilee).
