Walk Lewisham from Lewisham Market on the High Street outwards and the mainly Victorian pattern is obvious: 75% of the 3,987 households in SE13 live in flats, 25% in houses.
Private renting sits at 33% and owner-occupation at 32%; the first group books movers near you at short notice, the second plans it.
Walls are precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in Lewisham, often with surface conduit — the reality on the streets around Lewisham Market on the High Street, so the fixing that matters in Lewisham is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in SE13, drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it — which is why London Borough of Lewisham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Two streets can behave very differently in Lewisham: the market, the shopping centre and a cluster of new residential towers. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Lewisham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Roundabout red routes, market-day loading limits and booked lifts in the towers. Nearest station is Lewisham (DLR, Southeastern), and two movers as standard, three where a Victorian stair turn, a heavy item or a tight completion-day schedule makes the extra pair of hands worth the hourly cost.
