Can anyone recommend a plumber?

Hello,


I was wondering if anyone could recommend a plumber in the area. I have had a bad experience in the past with plumbers and so am really looking for someone who comes highly recommended.


I need 3 radiators reconnected to my heating system and my boiler serviced.


If anyone could help, I would be very grateful.


Thanks,

Natalie

I also really recommend John 07977 909339. Reliable, honest and knows what he's doing - as verified by my brother who is also a plumber by trade. He came over at the time he said he was going to and cares about doing a good job at a good price.


Thumbs up to honest tradesmen!(tu)

Just used Maurice on the strength of the forum's recommendations. What a star. had infinite patience with a blockage in the plumbing from hell in our kitchen. Persevered over the course of 2 days and was extremely reasonable and a true gent.

Just used Maurice who sorted a leaking stop cock, job turned out to more difficult and time consuming than first imagined but he got it sorted with no fuss and stuck by his original quote.


Very fairly priced and a pleasant chap, will use again and can definitely recommend.

Hi


I've lived in east Dulwich for 5 years and I have always used Jeremy at www.greengage.me.UK. His mobile is 07920 045 292.


He has moved radiators, installed a new boiler and even come out on Christmas eve to fix a burst pipe. He also fitted our bathroom. He is approachable and reliable, does high quality work and is always happy to help and advise.


He does a lot of work for new builds so his work is good and he will always try to fit you in.


Whenever we have used others it has been a disaster so he comes highly recommended.

I am afraid I must withdraw my recommendation of Mourad of MK Heating and Plumbing. I discovered the day after his service that I had neither heat nor hot water. After attempting to telephone, text and email Mourad all day, he eventually phoned that night to say he could do nothing about the problem as he was in Nigeria. Although his situation was understandable and perhaps even forgivable, the accusation that he levelled at me was certainly not, and caused me a great deal of distress, particularly as I was not well.


I then telephoned John (07977 909399) who, although booked for the evening, came round at about 11pm and sorted out the problem with no difficulty and at a much more reasonable price. It appeared that Mourad had not finished the job properly and this had caused the problem. The boiler had in fact given me no problems for many years and was working perfectly before Mourad serviced it, except for an unfamiliar noise, which is why I had decided to have the service.


I was really impressed by the professionalism, competence and friendliness of John and his assistant. I shall certainly be using their services in the future.

From the recommendations in this thread, I contacted Maurice. I want to recommend him HIGHLY. I often feel nervous about choosing a tradesman, because I don't feel I know enough about the jobs to be done to feel confident that I'm being charged the right amount, that the job's being done properly etc. Anyway, Maurice was extremely helpful, a lovely manner, reasonably priced, and fixed the leaking toilet brilliantly, as well as sorting out a few little problems with the mechanism in the tank that I hadn't noticed. I will certainly be using him again! Thanks, everyone, for the recommendation.

I also highly recommend John. He went to fix my elderly mother's blocked sink and not only is he very good at his job, he is a very nice man. We will definitely call on his services again. His mobile number is 07977909339

    • This is clearly far from a unique issue. Somebody posted this on Facebook and it is so similar to posts here I asked him if he was with Tessa Jowell - he said "no, Lewisham".  "This morning on the microsecond of 8am I tried to get through to my GP on the phone...it went straight through to Hold. Tried again. Same thing. Tried a third time...Same thing. OK, I thought, I will hold. 32 minutes later, I gave up. The voice said "Did you know you can now book appointments online?" NO YOU CAN'T...I have the Patient Access App & for the past 2 years it has said "This practice is unable to book appointments online." Anyhooooo...on way back from shops I popped into the actual surgery to see if I could book an appointment in advance...that was my second mistake...Receptionist said "No. You will have to ring up on a Monday morning to see if we have any for that week" "Oh, and what time should I ring?" "It's best to ring at 8am" "But i just spent 32 minutes this morning on hold and couldn't even get through" "Yeah, sorry about that, we are short-staffed at the moment...but did you kn ow you can now book appointments in advance online?" "No, you can't" "Well, there are sometimes some appointments available online" "Nope, no there aren't...looked every day for 2 years and not a scintilla of an appointment..." "Well, you could always ring up at 8am" "You do know the whole system is completely falling to pieces?" Receptionist gives rueful look. In case I lost it and set fire to the whole fecking GP Practice there and then, I left. I will try again tomorrow morning at 8am. And see if Dr Godot will see me...We are well and truly f****d, peoples."

    • Brilliant.  This is the right place As we need some support.  I will be in touch. TY
    • Long time cyclist and driver here, (but I cycle much more than drive). Sadly I'm not sure we're ever going to get over this.  The pro- and anti- camps are so polarised that compromise and acceptance seems impossible; it feels like someone has to be the winner. I had a break in Berlin recently and the attitude seems so different.  There were loads and loads of cyclists (most non-electric as far as I could tell) but everyone adhered to the rules.  Motorists and cyclists always stopped at red lights.  Pedestrians only crossed at crossings and only when the green man light was lit.  There were cycle lanes, sometimes borrowed from the road, sometimes from the pavements but always used.  What's needed is a cultural shift in mindset.
