macutd Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 There is a builder (Active East) in a house in Tarbert road. Who has been swearing at the top of his voice over the last two weeks or so. But what's worse it is directed at his builders.With " You are one f***ing idiot, one Romanian idiot" "you f***ing idiot" repeatedly directed at these poor guys.Has anybody had any dealings with this company?

singalto Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 I was thinking that you could ring the number and complain, particularly as racism is very much in the news at the moment.

Ruskin Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Surely they should be reported anyway, not because it's 'in the news at the moment', but because it's plain wrong.

singalto Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Ruskin, I agree that it is playing n wrong which is why I added the word 'particularly.' It is wrong to use foul language and be abusive to anyone regardless of race.

uncleglen Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Comment of the Year ...actually it has been happening with disgusting monotonous regularity in the locale- but then I get the distinct impression that some EDFers don't get out much these days.

Toffee Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Builders are notorious for banter, but this is disgusting. I have heard the worst swearing from builders who are completely unfazed by the fa t a child might be within earshot. Also, the sexism, homophobic, racist so called "jokes" seriously need reporting. At the moment my whole day is littered with f*--. Charming when my grandson asks me what the words mean!!

sillywoman Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Toffee, are you hearing the same builders as macutd? They are very loud indeed, not to mention foul-mouthed and crude, and as they are working in a garden block enclosed all round by houses the noise travels. I'm very very glad I don't have little children playing in our garden any more. I've not heard anything quite so loud and offensive in the two decades we've lived here. :( Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/112822-foul-mouthed-builder/#findComment-1018146 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toffee Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 I think it is the same lot of builders. What's the best way to report it? I was thinking of contacting southwark council to report it.

SLad Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Have you tried speaking to the foreman or the owners? We had this last year in a house 5 doors up which my daughter and I regularly walked passed. I stopped one day when I'd heard the C word about 5 times in 3 days and spoke to the foreman. Everything went quiet after that and, on those few occasions that voices were raised again, I just popped round and told the particular people concerned that I would report it to the foreman and the owners of the property if I heard it again. Surprisingly enough, they paid heed and the rest of the build completed without any problems.

Toffee Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Thank you. Yes, i'll try and locate the foreman. Although, God forbid, I hope foul mouth isnt the foreman!!!

???? Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 I think there's a potential strong brand in here "Sweary Builder" , think "Aussie Man with a van"; I also think there's some right precious W*nkers in SE22 nowadays Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/112822-foul-mouthed-builder/#findComment-1018542 Share on other sites More sharing options...
