Jan of Silver Fern Landscaping  did an excellent job of replacing my worn out garden fence recently. He was efficient, quoted the best price of four estimates and cleaned everything up beautifully.  He also overcame a few unexpected complications with no extra cost. Really first rate job and the fence looks great. Highly recommended.

I live on Upland Road and loads of houses towards the southern end participate, as well as quite a few on Dunstans Road. It's very festive. Trick or treating starts as soon as it gets dark, so don't miss out. 

 

I would add my recommendation for Marven and Sky High . Smallish job of repairing external window seals and painting but undertaken effeciently and reasonably and both he and his painter Dave were a pleasure to deal with. I would definitely use again

You may be able to get a space in a bike hanger.

If it's not an expensive bike and you double lock it though - it should be OK imo. Depends on where you are really.

 

I have just been allocated a bike hangar on Goodrich Road in ED. It only took two and a half years on the waiting list.

Another recommendation for Aria. Excellent job done in a friendly and efficient manner. Really nice and helpful guy.

I would highly recommend Russel Ennis of Smooth Finishes Tel. 07843 824341 for damp work and plastering. Russel and his brother were quick. efficient and good value and extremely nice and polite. Great reviews on Checkatrade.

Another recommendation for Niko who is excellent, efficient and knowledgeable and responds really quickly. Really nice guy too.

Another glowing recommendation for Aston from me. He came and did a small electrical job for me and could not have been nicer, fairer or more efficient. He is able to do a range of work both large and small and I will definitely use him again.

I rarely post, but I wanted to sing the praises of computer repair person Robert Cast, who fixed my laptop and iphone 6s Plus in record time last evening and for a very reasonable price. After suggesting over the phone my Acer Swift laptop might need a new motherboard, Robert came back later to say it didn't and that it just needed a good clean. I appreciate that kind of honesty. I had been thinking of replacing both items until I found him on Facebook. He lives on the Dog Kennel Hill Estate, so is also local. https://www.facebook.com/PhoneRepairSE22 or 07864 901815. I'm just so pleased I wanted to share the info.

Another endorsement for Dave at Norwood Roofing. I Had water coming into my bathroom because of a flat roof problem last week. Dave came out the next day, gave a comprehensive quote and then completed the work within a few days. Good and professional job, guaranteed and at a competitive price. Friendly and easy to do business with, no mess , no fuss. highly recommend.

Please stock Poor Bens and I will become your best customer.

I called Jon Smith after reading about him on this thread. He cleaned our windows, back and front, for ?30 -- we have a smallish two-storey terrace on Upland Road that includes a large glass door and windows at the back. We were impressed by his punctuality, the quality of his work and his general efficiency (he answered texts promptly, reminded us he was coming, etc). Jon takes pride in his work and we will definitely use him again.

Last autumn (2016) Matthew Hanson and his team renovated our seriously outdated kitchen, which entailed closing up a door, creating a new window, building French doors from an old bay window and re-doing all the electrics and plumbing on top of installing new units and a floor. They did a fantastic job, and Matthew and his team leader, Kris, responded promptly whenever we had questions or ran into unexpected problems. The builders arrived on time, were highly skilled as well as courteous and easy to have around the house. We are thrilled with our new kitchen and are about to have Matthew back to re-do our front and back gardens. I recommend his company very highly.

I'd like to add my voice to the chorus of approval for Jo. She recently altered two dresses for me and proved an excellent seamstress and very receptive to my ideas for alterations. She's a fast worker and her prices reasonable. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again.
