I have had an awful experience with these landscapers which I took from a recommendation on the forum. Do NOT use D and L Landscaping. They have taken a large deposit and done a terrible job. If anyone else want to report them please get in touch as they need to be stopped before they rip anyone else off.

We feel that it is necessary to reply to this ridiculous slating from a very difficult former client. From the start of this job he has been strange; changing decisions already agreed on numerous occasions,and then not transferring funds needed to continue with the work as specified in the original quote and agreed by him. Instead of discussing this with us he has chosen to try to slander us on this forum and has made threats to" chase us down" and comments such as scumbags etc etc. We were warned by his current tennants that he is very difficult as a landlord and tried to avoid paying a previous tradesman which was worrying to hear. After not agreeing to further funding and suddenly becoming very rude and aggressive instead of calmly negotiating with us we decided to reluctantly stop the work and remove our tools. We have provided him with a breakdown of all costs/works and we are out of pocket. However, 2 days ago he was happy that we had "cracked the back of it" and what a complicated job it is.He is holding back over ?2000 pounds owed oabdn completion of 3 more days work. We were suspicious that as a property developer he doesn't appear to have a team working regularly for him. Finally he conducts himself in a highly unprofessional manner and we absolutely implore any local tradespeople to have nothing whatsoever to do with him. I would just like to add that he was uncontactable on far too many occasions when important decision needed to be made

      Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x

      Be careful in local shops

      By Sue · Posted

      People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.

      Bitey Fox.

      Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o

      Excellent Christmas meal at Franklins!

      By Jenijenjen · Posted

      My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
