Walk Fulham from Craven Cottage and Fulham Palace outwards and the mainly Victorian pattern is obvious: 69% of the 13,172 households in SW6 live in flats, 31% in houses.
Owner-occupation runs at 41% in Fulham, so alongside the 39% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Walls are dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — where 41% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year, so the fixing that matters in Fulham is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in SW6, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — with 20% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.
Two streets can behave very differently in Fulham: rows of two-storey Victorian terraces, the Green's cafés and two football grounds. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Fulham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, match-day closures, very tight CPZ hours and narrow streets parked both sides — one reason two crew travel with the load for a dedicated van; part loads are consolidated at our depot and delivered by the driver running that route. Fitters travelling in use Fulham Broadway (District).
