On the evening of the Dulwich Festivals Artists open house the ground floor toilet cistern decided to leak - badly - and we were expecting and received many visitors over the next weekends! Who was on hand the following afternoon to solve the problem 'East Dulwich Plumber run by Jon Jaques. (A local fully qualified Plumber and Gas Engineer with over 10 years experience.) He was brilliant and really saved the day for us - we can't recommend Jon highly enough! PandG JON's CONTACT DETAILS: Email: [email protected] Office 07590316924 Emergency 07484647204

Called Steve, the spin doctor, on Monday morning - not about the washing machine this time but a fan oven that had conked out.

We took our friends from Cambridge on Saturday evening,who came down for the artists open house, and we had a fabulous meal 4 sharing plates and two John dories, With sides,dessert and wine a wonderful meal and will definitely be going back!

I can vouch for Wayne and his car valeting service as excellent! This is the second time I have used his service and my 1994 Mercedes convertible came back a few hours later looking like new! A brilliant service. Phil

Does anyone know of anyone in the area that does sand blasting - we have some cast iron radiators that need cleaning as the original coating is bubbling off?

I think most professional quality stone companies are not cheap but you get what you pay for! They were without fault, helpful advice and we chose to use them and, as said earlier, would use them again! P

We stumbled across Diespeker a couple of years ago when we were looking for a piece of marble. This was after a google search looking for suppliers in the area! They are experts, have a wonderful selection of stone and have been in business for years. We would use them again and gave them a review on here at the time. I don?t know the other company though!

Called Jon this morning about a leaking radiator and he was here by lunchtime, two new valves - job done! Nice guy brilliant service so thoroughly recommended! Contact him on 07590316924 PandG
