North London
Islington, Camden, Haringey, Barnet and out towards Finchley and Muswell Hill. Tall Victorian and Edwardian terraces, a great many loft conversions, and streets where the suspension matters more than the vehicle.
Coverage
We work wherever London's housing stock is houses. And a good share of our work is the move out — a London terrace traded for more space beyond the M25.
In London
Every borough is covered. These are the ones where whole-house moves are concentrated — the parts of the city built as terraces and semis rather than as blocks.
By cluster
Islington, Camden, Haringey, Barnet and out towards Finchley and Muswell Hill. Tall Victorian and Edwardian terraces, a great many loft conversions, and streets where the suspension matters more than the vehicle.
Hackney, Walthamstow, Leyton and the Docklands fringe. Terraces being extended and converted constantly, which means more awkward internal layouts than the age of the stock suggests.
Southwark, Lewisham, Greenwich and Bromley. Wider streets further out, steeper ones nearer the river, and a lot of families trading upward within the same few postcodes.
Wandsworth, Lambeth, Merton and Richmond. The heartland of the four-bed family terrace and of the move out to Surrey, which we do a great deal of.
Hammersmith & Fulham, Kensington & Chelsea, Ealing. Stucco-fronted houses with basements and deep lightwells, plus the tightest parking restrictions in the city.
Surrey, Kent, Hertfordshire, Essex, Sussex, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, and further west to Bristol and south to Brighton. A London loading problem at one end, a country access problem at the other.
Leaving London
The London end is the hard end — no driveway, a controlled zone, a narrow terrace street. The destination brings its own questions, and we check them before choosing the vehicle.
Not on the list? It is a list of the common ones, not a boundary. Tell us the postcode and we will tell you how it is best run.
Where you are moving from and to, how many bedrooms, and whether you have a date yet. Even an uncertain date is worth telling us about.
