Thank you both. That's really helpful. Will see if we have the budget left next year when we've finished some other work on the house, but would love to do this.

Has anybody on here got any experience of covering a flat roof with sedum trays? We have a GRP (fibreglass) flat roof above our ground floor rear extension that would be suitable for this, but it's immediately below our rear bedroom window, so wondering if we might end being plagued with insects when the window is open in the summer. Also worried it might get damaged by pigeon poo and/or turn into a cat toilet, since there's lots of passing traffic!

We could not be happier. Brian and Malachi were wonderful to have around the house while they were working. The result is 5 star and with Brian's direction the route we took was better than what we had planned. We love the look of our house it has totally changed the feel of the property and transformed it into a house we are proud of. Thank you so much for your great work. Not one hitch and felt really taken care of from start to finish. I cannot recommend them enough.

Kyjah helped us transform our outdoor area last year and we're really happy with the results. He was friendly and hard-working and we would gladly recommend him.

Haha. Yes. Thanks for the Cats Protection info though.

We saw those but were a little skeptical because our own (rescue) cat removed a permanent one in under 10 minutes when tried so wasn't sure how much to trust these!

Thanks for your help everyone, particularly the recommendation of Celia Hammond, who were very helpful. I think we'll start with a few posters just to be absolutely sure we're not about to abduct anyone's cat, although he needs neutering in any case. Thanks, Tom

There's an unneutered black and white cat who often comes into our garden on Hindmans Road. He sprays a lot which annoys our own cat, and recently attacked a neighbour's cat who was visiting our garden. He seems pretty healthy and content, but we were wondering if it's worth trying to get him neutered. We would need to establish that he's definitely stray or feral first, which I gather you can do with a temporary collar. Does anyone have any relevant advice or experience with this?

We have just submitted our objections to the revised proposal. Fewer issues in this application that affect anyone beyond the immediate neighbours, but it is worth noting that the proposal removes off-street parking and adds multiple apartments with no parking provision. This is an increasing concern with the nearby developments such as the old police station due to increase demand further.

Thanks to everyone who assisted us with objecting to the first application. We were very glad to see it withdrawn. Just a heads up that a revised application has been submitted: http://planningonline.southwark.gov.uk/AcolNetCGI.exe?ACTION=UNWRAP&RIPNAME=Root.PgeResultDetail&TheSystemkey=9558767 Thankfully the garden development has been removed, although as an immediate neighbour the proposed basement excavations are more than a little scary. We have several objections to the design that we will articulate in another objection letter, although it does appear to be moving in the right direction.
