Strip-out through services, kitchens, bathrooms, joinery and decoration under one written programme.

Deptford's High Street and Deptford Broadway form the commercial core, with the covered Deptford Market operating Wednesday to Saturday. The former Royal Naval Dockyard site at Convoys Wharf is being redeveloped into a major mixed-use quarter. Applied to full refurbishment around Deptford, that evidence shapes phased strip-out, services, wet rooms and occupation — it does not invent a method for an unseen property.
