Any shops operating a limited customer policy?
Awkward Knee replied to siousxiesue's topic in Request a Tradesperson
M&S are counting people in but once they are in the shop there's no social distancing being observed. The same is happening in Village Organic. -

Archie and Blue - Design and Build
Awkward Knee replied to archie&blue's topic in Request a Tradesperson
We've just used Archie and Blue for a few small jobs around the house - replacing silicone in a shower, tiling a basin splashback plus fitting a new piece of plasterboard and skimming. Prompt, tidy, great workers and a keen price. -
Recommended Heating Engineer/plumber
Awkward Knee replied to CityMum's topic in Request a Tradesperson
A further recommendation for John and his plumbers. First rate work on a leaking shower. -
Old Spike Roastery on Peckham Rye is pretty decent

Heber Road - dangerous wall - please avoid
Awkward Knee posted a topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Please avoid walking on the pavement at the Lordship Lane end of Heber Road. The high double brick wall that is part of 263 Lordship Lane and runs along Heber Road has huge cracks in it and is bowing considerably. I've spoken with the foreman in charge of the building works at 263 and he told me that it couldn't be taken down until next week due to Southwark not having issued a licence of some kind. I've also reported to Southwark(dangerous structures dept) and left a message with Heber School. MYN Properties has no answerphone and no one picks up. The wall has become incredibly unstable with more cracks opening up over the last 4 days. -

We used Rob at www.stonerejuvenation.co.uk for cleaning and re-pointing the front of our house. Highly recommended. -

Buildteam - negative reviews thread removals
Awkward Knee replied to bobbsy's topic in Request a Tradesperson
As an East Dulwich resident that used Build Team and had a less than satisfactory experience with them I find it concerning that the negative reviews are being removed. The company seemed happy to use the forum for exposure in the past: http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?30,1166564,1166564#msg-1166564 -
We had the unfortunate experience of using Build Team for our side return. There used to be another thread about Buid Team but it seems to have been removed.

Stonemason recommendation - Rob Payne

Rob has just cleaned our brickwork and re-pointed in lime mortar - a super transformation. Thoroughly recommended.
