Late Victorian and Edwardian terrace
Tooting is street after street of two storey terrace built between about 1880 and 1910, to a pattern and quickly. Solid brick, lath and plaster above, and the same handful of faults recurring: cracked ceilings, blown plaster on external walls and chimney breasts taken out with the making good left half done.
Because the layouts repeat, so does the work. Skimming a whole ground floor after a layout change and boarding a loft room are both routine here.
Houses in multiple occupation
A high proportion of the stock is let by the room, which changes the job more than the building does. There is usually somebody home, a shared entrance, and a landlord or agent who needs telling before anything noisy starts.
The practical answers are the same every time: protect the common parts, keep the loud work to the middle of the day, and take waste out as it is made rather than stacking it in a hallway somebody else has to walk through.
Access off the high road
The streets behind Tooting High Street and Mitcham Road are narrow and permit controlled. Boards get ordered in sizes that will turn on a Victorian staircase, because the alternative is cutting them on the pavement.
Where the rear of a house has to be reached, the route goes through it, so a protected run from front door to garden goes down on day one and stays down.
