Walk Harringay from Green Lanes and Finsbury Park's northern edge outwards and the period conversion pattern is obvious: 66% of the 12,105 households in N4 live in flats, 34% in houses.
Owner-occupation runs at 35% in Harringay, so alongside the 45% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Harringay substrates run to lath and plaster over timber studs in Harringay, with solid brick on the party and external walls — which is what a 66% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Harringay actually produces. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster; locally that also means which crumbles the key and drops the panel — which is why London Borough of Haringey kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the mistake that costs a N4 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Harringay knows the pattern near Green Lanes and Finsbury Park's northern edge: green Lanes' ocakbasi grills and the Harringay Ladder of parallel terraces. We plan the N4 visit around it. Harringay is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
The Ladder streets are narrow and fully permit-controlled; Green Lanes has short loading bays. Nearest station is Harringay Green Lanes (Overground), and 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.
