Another recommendation for Aston. Aston came and repaired several areas of wallpaper that had been scratched and torn by my cats. He did a really good repair job and I would highly recommend him. His mobile:- 07490 947355

Looking for an electrician? I can strongly recommend Dominic Murphy from A1 electrics. Mob: 07970 800120. Our fuse isolators were in such a bad way we were told by the utility company that if left could black out the whole street. Dominic came round to replace them and has done a fantastic job. He's reliable, pro-active and very efficient.

I live in a Victorian property, which is divided into 3 flats and are privately owned. Our gas, electricity and water metres (9 x metres in total) are located in a type of cellar underneath the external concrete steps. We are having problems with rain water coming through external brick work, cracks in the concrete etc. plus damp and condensation. The damp is corroding the metres and pipework, and a small amount of rain water has recently been found in the fuse box. We really want to resolve the problem but not sure how to go about it. Even if we resolved the external problems we still have issues with damp and condensation. I've made enquiries about getting the cellar tanked to make it watertight/damp free. However, I've been informed that this can be a real hassle as Utility companies need to be involved. Apparently, they have to temporarily extract the metres and our supply, relocate elsewhere until the work is done, and the utility company can charge up to ?5K per metre to do this. The three flats have different utility service providers from each other so this could come to a vast amount of money. I was wondering if anybody else has had the same problem; what they did about it and whether I've been given the correct information. Any advice is much appreciated.

Hi Can anybody recommend an electrical heating engineer to carry out an electrical equipment safety check within a residential property but also to advise on dual-immersion cylinder installation and slimline storage heaters. Many thanks

I can strongly recommend the new hairdressing shop that's just opened on Forest Hill Road. The owner, Mark cut my hair on Saturday and I'm so pleased with way it's been cut. The Galleon Modern Hairdressing, 20 Forest Hill Road. Tel: 020 8613 1593

Chris at Aerials Installed has also just helped me. He was great, he came round at very short notice. Diagnosed the problem as involving more than just the aerial. He climbed up on to the roof several times and left me with a fully working TV, excellent picture and channels I didn't know I had. He was very straightforward with me about the problems and is very reasonably priced. Tel: 020 8659 3772.

I'd also like to add a recommendation for Greg. He's just completed building some floating shelves and fitted a new front door with locks. He's done a good job and I found him reliable and reasonably priced. Greg's mobile number is: 07949640999.
