Aston hung and fixed a kitchen cupboard to the wall for us, including sourcing the wall plates himself and turning up with all the equipment he needed. You can always trust him to do the job to a very high standard. Would echo the comments above, we highly recommend him and would use him again.

Also wanted to add to the great recommendations. We?ve used Aston?s services in the past and recently asked him to come and hang some mirrors / pictures / clocks and he was great as usual - friendly, reasonable and did a great job, getting things exactly as we wanted them.
And another recommendation for Aston! Aston has done jobs for us before, he came round this week and hung pictures / mirrors and mended our fence (among other things). He is really friendly and his work is of a very high standard. We'll definitely use him again.
I'd also like to recommend Aston. I live in Nunhead and he came over at short notice this last week to hang pictures and mirrors, remove our garden gate and fit a few other smaller items. I found Aston via recommendations in this forum and was not disappointed! He was quick and efficient, he cleaned up any mess and was really keen to ensure his work was in line with my expectations. I'd definitely use him again.

I would also like to recommend Aston's services! He did a number of jobs in our house including fixing some large bookcases to a wall, resealing our bath, filling in the grouting in some stone slabs and replacing some rotten decking in our patio. He's fantastic - responsive, professional, friendly. He and his colleague did a brilliant job on everything and I'm already wondering what I can ask him to do next! Would highly recommend.

A big thumbs up for Aston. He has recently put up and painted some fences for me, as well as painted the back of my house, which I?m very pleased with. He is polite, a good communicator, turns up when he says he will, works hard, and tidies up afterwards. Highly recommended.

Aston has just finished a decorating job in our lounge. The finish is to a very high standard and the prep work he did on some walls that need a fair bit of attention was excellent. Highly recommended and would use again.


Also a thoroughly nice guy.

Thanks Aston - Chris & B.

Aston is our go-to for when we need things done. We hired him to fit shelves in our flat a few years ago and when we moved, we hired to Aston again to take the shelves down and also help with disassembling a kitchen table and sofa bed. When we moved into our new house, Aston helped us to fit wardrobes and drawers to the wall and hang a mirror, picture frames and install curtain rods. There's no job he can't handle! Very friendly and reasonably priced, I recommend Aston very highly and you'll be very happy with his service and commitment.

Aston also did some work for me last week in Forest Hill. I needed some pictures hanging and without the necessary tools, I asked him to help. He was really responsive to the query, did a fantastic job, was really friendly, punctual and reasonably priced. I will certainly be asking him to help with other jobs and highly recommend him to others!

We?ve used Aston a number of times now across the two houses we?ve lived in in ED. He is friendly, punctual, competent and has always done a good job with all our random DIY requests! I would, and often do, recommend him to others.

    • Hello,  I feel as though our apartment is damp. I would like to borrow a dehumidifier to ascertain whether it is or not. Does anyone have a dehumidifier that I could borrow for a week?  thank you,    Brigid
    • Post much better this Xmas.  Sue posted about whether they send Xmas cards; how good the post is,  is relevant.  Think I will continue to stay off Instagram!
    • These have reduced over the years, are "perfect" lives Round Robins being replaced by "perfect" lives Instagram posts where we see all year round how people portray their perfect lives ?    The point of this thread is that for the last few years, due to issues at the mail offices, we had delays to post over Christmas. Not really been flagged as an issue this year but I am still betting on the odd card, posted well before Christmas, arriving late January. 
    • Two subjects here.  Xmas cards,  We receive and send less of them.  One reason is that the cost of postage - although interestingly not as much as I thought say compared to 10 years ago (a little more than inflation).  Fun fact when inflation was double digits in the 70s cost of postage almost doubled in one year.  Postage is not a good indication of general inflation fluctuating a fair bit.  The huge rise in international postage that for a 20g Christmas card to Europe (no longer a 20g price, now have to do up to 100g), or a cheapskate 10g card to the 'States (again have to go up to the 100g price) , both around a quid in 2015, and now has more than doubled in real terms.  Cards exchanged with the US last year were arriving in the New Year.  Funnily enough they came much quicker this year.  So all my cards abroad were by email this year. The other reason we send less cards is that it was once a good opportunity to keep in touch with news.  I still personalise many cards with a news and for some a letter, and am a bit grumpy when I get a single line back,  Or worse a round robin about their perfect lives and families.  But most of us now communicate I expect primarily by WhatApp, email, FB etc.  No need for lightweight airmail envelope and paper in one.    The other subject is the mail as a whole. Privitisation appears to have done it no favours and the opening up of competition with restrictions on competing for parcel post with the new entrants.  Clearly unless you do special delivery there is a good chance that first class will not be delivered in a day as was expected in the past.   Should we have kept a public owned service subsidised by the tax payer?  You could also question how much lead on innovation was lost following the hiving off of the national telecommunications and mail network.
