What gets worked on here
Wandsworth is largely Victorian and Edwardian terrace with pockets of later building, and a high proportion of it is in family occupation rather than split into flats. That shows in the work: whole house projects, layout changes, and extensions rather than one room at a time.
The plastering that follows is mostly new work meeting old. Fresh blockwork and stud on one side of a junction, hundred year old brick on the other, and a finish that has to read flat across both.
Rear extensions and the render that follows
Rear and side return extensions are common across the borough, and once the structure is finished there is usually a rear elevation to render and a set of internal walls to board and skim. The render is the part most often rushed, because it comes at the end of a long build when everyone wants to be off site.
It is worth not rushing. New blockwork and old brick move differently, so the basecoat and the mesh across that junction are what stop a crack appearing along the line where the extension meets the house within the first winter.
Access, and how the job actually runs
Wandsworth operates controlled parking over most of the borough and the terraced streets fill up early. Where a scaffold or a delivery is needed, a bay suspension gets arranged in advance and the cost is in the estimate rather than added later.
Getting to the back of a terrace almost always means going through the house. A protected route from the front door to the garden goes down on day one and stays down, and the garden itself gets sheeted where materials are being mixed.
