I need a oak exterior door including frame installed in an back shed. The work is now urgent. Please PM with any recommendations. Thanks

I am looking for someone to install an exterior wood door (similar to this: http://www.doorsworld.co/p/LPD_Norfolk_Oak_Exterior_Door.htm ) to a shed attached to the house. I believe that the door will also need a frame installed.

Hi I am looking for recommendations for a high end wood bike shed. I want something which looks pretty and will last. Due to where it will be I don't want it to just look like a garden tool shed.

Hi, I need recommendations on where to get a solid wood exterior door for a back shed/extension. I also want installation. I am looking for something well built (solid wood) but plain as its for a back shed attached to the house. Thanks

I am looking for a handyman who can take down a brick chimney BBQ which in the garden and a brick post which is out the front of the house. Must be able to clear the rubble away. If you know how to paint that is a bonus as I have one bedroom which needs repainting and a few touchup elsewhere. Thanks

I just went to Belair House on a jazz Wednesday. We had a drink in the bar which was lovely and nicely full. We then ate in the restaurant and were the only ones. However they sat us in front of the fire and the food was really lovely. I really recommend.

I would not recommend Francis under any condition. I hired him on the basis of these reommendations. He came to fix a small problem. He recommended I change the magna clean which I agreed as the old one needed replacing as it was leaking a bit. All this usually requires is to drain the sytem, install and new system and refill the system. So he got a new one and replaced it. He charged me ?300 (?150 for parts). He was in such a rush to leave that when he left he didn't fill up the tank, resulting in my boiler overheating. So we spent the day/night with no heat. When I phoned he said couldn't come that night and would come first thing in the morning. Needless to say he didn't turn up, didn't call to say why and never returned my calls in the morning. This prompted me to have to get another plumber in to reset the boiler and likely I have to get the thermostat replaced now. Francis is a cowboy and should not do anything other than fix a blocked drain.

We used him to fit a new radiotor and fix a toilet. He was very helpful. Currently trying to get a hold of him for a new job though and he is proving difficult to reach.

Hi I need a plumber to fit a new radiator. The new radiator will be a different size so this will involve moving the pipes a bit and lifting the floor boards. I also need a toilet fixed. I have the new parts for the cistern, they just need to be installed. Ideally this is done sometime on 3 to 6 of December. Please PM if you can do the work and an idea as to cost. Kind regards, Cicely

We had an Ikea kitchen in our old house. We didn't install it, but when we left five years later (and seven years after it was installed) it still looked great. Only thing was the taps. Might be worth an upgrade on those. Thinking of putting one in our new house!

You can get a cheaper and bigger houses by going not very far. West Norwood, West Dulwich and Syndenham would be top of my list. ED is lovely but the houses are small and expensive.

GOing rate is net ?10hr and up to ?12+ net if they are in a nanny share with three or more children.

I think it helps to make sure they have basic skills, especially able to hold a pen correctly, use scissors, know numbers and letters etc.

I just want to recommend our furniture maker, Richard Jennings-Bramly. He did a fabulous job and this is the second house we have used him in so he is consistently good. He built us lots of bookshelves, alcove shelves and wardrobe. Attached are pictures of what he just built. They look amazing and we got three quotes and he was not the most expensive. He is also really good with design ideas. www.bramly.co.uk

Richard Jennings-Bramly, www.bramly.co.uk Really nice guy. Just finished fabulous work for us and was by the cheapest quote. Amazing quality. We used him in our last house as well so he is consistently good.
