Recommendation for a Carpenter (already rated on edf)


Recommended Posts

He's been mentioned on this forum - Nerris bucius on 07875 046753 - and has recently built two large cupboards and floating shelves around a chimney breast. I'd like to add my name to those who recommend him,


I've used this site to get quotes from various tradespeople as well as the website of the federation of master builders. I got five quotes for my carpentry work all of them through recommendations on edf.


nerris stands out for the following reasons:


- he answers his phone, replies to voicemails and texts promptly

- he turns up when he says he will (& when u are waiting in the house with a baby, this really matters)

- he provides a detailed quote broken down by labour costs and materials (btw, I'm still waiting for a quote for some other work from an fmb rated bromley based big builder since APRIL. Even the office lady is becoming a bit embarrassed. ..)

- he is keen to work and quotes just as promptly for further work. (I wish the bromley builder would just be honest and tell me the work is not their bag, instead of spending an hour measuring things...If any tradespeople are reading this, why don't you ask more questions before saying yes to coming out and providing a quote? Surely it's a massive opportunity cost to you guys?)

- he wants payment at end of the job.

- he's competitively priced

- motivated and quick (stops for glasses of water only!)

- does a good job, a really good job

Another recommendation for Nerris, he fixed my French doors for me over the weekend. Very reliable, turned up on time (early on Saturday morning), even phoned me to check that the price of the new locks he was picking up were OK with me. And he did a very neat job.

I would also like to recommend Nerris. A realy friendly guy who's standard of work is unquestionable.

He has just layed loft boards down in my loft aswell as adding extra support to the water tank up there.

First name I will consider next time I need a carpenter. Would also put his name forward to family and friends!

I used Nerris to fit my kitchen but would definitely NOT recommend him. He rushed the job and left us with kitchen cupboards that were uneven on one side. He blamed this on old Victorian kitchen walls but having spoken to various other kitchen suppliers and installers since, this was just an excuse.


He may be fine to make a cupboard but I wouldn't trust him for anything more complex.

    • Plenty for sale online from various ticket vendors but you'll need to part with £250 and upwards by the looks of it. Out of interest i kept an eye on the prices for the England and Italy Euro final. At one point they were on offer for a couple of grand each. On the day sellers were obviously getting itchy feet and prices dropped somewhat but never went any lower than £400. That was a few hours before kick off. There was plenty still available half an hour before kick off.   Having been to Wembley a couple of times for play off finals i found it to be not a great place to watch football. Sat three rows back from the pitch side advertising hoardings for one game and way way up in the gods for the other. We felt to far away from the pitch on both occasions. Up in the goods was just stupid because we felt cut off as well.  I don't think it was rebuilt with acoustics in mind either. Even with most of our 25k fans singing it never sounded loud because it's pretty much uncovered and too open.   Happy hunting!
    • It doesn't work as a commercial venture.  Bit churlish to say I told you so.  I told you so.  I'll send less greetings cards.  What pees me off is international postage where you can no longer send light letters at 10 grammes, normal ones up to 20g, now all at the much more expensive 100 g  Didn't we vote to take back control and price everything according to irrational units like ounces? That's some obscure humour btw   
    • Available from Monday April 8th 2024, 2on2Walkies take pride in doggie care and only walk 2 furry friends at a time. I make sure that they get plenty of doggie interaction and socialisation in the park as well as making friends. Back home happy and tired I always check that the water bowl has fresh water and always make sure the doggie is left comfortable before I leave. I'm fully insured and have a couple of slots available for local walks to either Peckham Rye Park or Dulwich Park.  Thank you!  
    • Why would they only send them recorded delivery? I used the signed for option yesterday.
