Recommended Posts

Hi,

I was about to have my garden levelled out and astro laid, I had a quote and work arranged but the person has suddenly left the country for 2 months and can no longer do the works. Can you help? Need to have experience of doing the below works please as I have had bad experience with an inexperienced fence fitter before:


THE BRIEF: Create a 2 -tier garden using sleepers as soil retention and lay with an artificial grass, resetting some of the fence panels.


THE WORK:

*supply and fit approx 12x 2.4m sleepers along LH boundary and across centre of lawn to delineate the 2 tier. Sleepers to be fixed with steel stakes drilled through the centre


*skim off grass from the lawn and dispose of. Level the soil to create the 2 tiers, removing any excess soil.


*supply and lay approx 8 tonnes of ballast over the soil. Beat the ballast with wacker plate to flatten and compact


*supply and lay approx 4 tonnes of sand over ballast to provide drainage, beat sand with wacker plate to flatten.


*supply and lay approx 50m2 of artificial grass to the 2 areas. Supply and fit joining tape to make up the 5m width of the garden, stretch and fix with metal staples


*supply and fit approx 8x new gravel boards to the base of fence on LH side of garden to cover up holes made by change of level


*detatch 4x fence panels from 2x posts, dig out 2x posts and create holes for new posts. Supply and fit 2x new 75x75mm posts set it postcrete. Reattach fence panels.


Works to take approx 9-10 working days based on 8am-5pm.


If you can help please can you dm me quotes and availability. Looking to get the work done yesterday!

    • I can thoroughly recommend Aria. He came at very short notice to carry out urgent repairs on a leaking pipe, did an excellent job and his was extremely patient and polite. I wouldn't hesitate to turn to him again. 
    • I have had two separate incidents of moped drivers deliberately crashing into our car which I believe is part of a wider insurance scam. From what I can gather, they target female drivers who are alone or with kids in high value vehicles (of which I was one). On both occasions for me this involved a moped driver signalling to me to cross a junction and when I pulled away driving deliberately and at speed into the car. Then Jumping up and immediately taking photographs and videos of the car. I’m expecting a bogus insurance claim to follow. i’m posting this in part for awareness and also out of interest to see if it’s happening to other people. One of my friends has also been targeted in a similar way.   If this does happen, please report it to the police and your insurance company. Unfortunately, the police haven’t pursued, my cases and to be honest it doesn’t matter as no one was hurt and there was minimal damage, but this is dangerous practice and the more people that report it the more likely it is the action will be taken.   Has anybody witnessed this or had a similar thing happened to them? 
    • Getting married in a month in a 'festival/country' style wedding and looking for old wheelbarrows that people might be throwing away to create a 'ice bucket'/drinks feature! Happy to pick up from the Dulwich/south London area. Ideally looking for free or very very low cost. Would need to pick up before May 11th. Thanks!
