Covering Streatham
SW16 · London Borough of Lambeth
Streatham is where our patch changes character. It is more suburban, with a much higher proportion of 1930s semi-detached and detached houses than anywhere else we cover, alongside the large Edwardian houses of Telford Park and a belt of interwar mansion blocks along Streatham Hill. The 1930s stock brings a very specific electrical problem with it: installations that were partially modernised in the 1970s and 80s and have been left alone ever since.
The housing stock in Streatham, and what it means
The 1930s semis around Streatham Vale and Furzedown are the defining stock — bay-fronted, cavity-walled, with generous loft space and accessible floor voids, which makes them the easiest properties on our patch to work in. Their weakness is the vintage of their last upgrade: a great many were partially rewired in the 1970s or early 80s, which means PVC cable that is genuinely old, wall-mounted fuse boxes of that era, and lighting circuits with no earth. Telford Park is larger Edwardian housing, much of it still whole houses. Streatham Hill has interwar mansion blocks with communal risers and, in several cases, original 1930s intake positions still in service.
Getting to you
Streatham is the furthest south we go and the response time reflects the run down the A23. Parking is markedly easier than the rest of the patch — much of SW16 is uncontrolled or lightly controlled, and most 1930s houses have a driveway, which makes van access simple and keeps costs down. The Streatham Hill mansion blocks need porter access for intake cupboards.
