Walk Isle of Dogs from Island Gardens and the Greenwich foot tunnel outwards and the post-war pattern is obvious: 84% of the 12,491 households in E14 live in flats, 16% in houses.
Owner-occupation runs at 27% in Isle of Dogs, so alongside the 45% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Walls are with metal stud partitions between rooms, over dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork — which is what a 84% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Isle of Dogs actually produces, so the fixing that matters in Isle of Dogs is chosen on site — the usual failure here is in E14, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — which is why London Borough of Tower Hamlets kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Two streets can behave very differently in Isle of Dogs: dock basins ringed by apartment blocks, with Island Gardens facing Greenwich. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Isle of Dogs sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Single access roads onto the island, dock-side loading bays and lift booking in every block. Nearest station is Crossharbour (DLR), 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.
