Aria helped us out this week. He replaced ballcocks in our loft tanks. These had caused a leak whilst we were away on holiday. He also installed a new radiator. Responsive to our requirements. Communication was really good, costs reasonable.  Nice guy. Very happy to recommend.

Aria came to do a handful of jobs at very short notice for me (removing two radiators, installing a new one, installing a dishwasher and installing a washing machine). Aria did a visit on the day I reached out to him to understand exactly what I was asking for. He followed up with a detailed plan of what needed to be done and a quote for the work. He then completed all tasks in a day (coming back to check all was well a few days later). I would absolutely recommend Aria and will definitely work with him again.

Aria came to help us out with a leaking water valve before Christmas. He was extremely helpful, and sorted out the problem very quickly. His charge was very reasonable, and I wouldn’t hesitate to use him again. Highly recommended. Thanks, Aria! 

Aria was fantastic when renovating our bathroom just before Christmas. Incredibly helpful and flexible with his time when the suppliers repeatedly sent us damaged goods. He was responsive, kind, tidy and his fees very reasonable. I'll definitely use him in future.

 I've noticed that Aria has lots of recommendations from forumites who have only ever have made a single post and that first and only post is about A.F.E. and Aria!   Strange, no?

You can always check when they registered on the forum, if you are suspicious.

But I recommended Aria, and it certainly wasn't my only post on here, and it was a genuine recommendation.

ETA: And he didn't ask me to make it, to the best of my recollection. But even if he had, many local tradespeople ask people to post on here if they are happy with the work that has been done.

Another recommendation for Aria - he came over on short notice before Christmas (so a bit of a delayed review) to help fix a pipe when some DIY went wrong. He was very helpful, quick to respond and sorted the problem efficiently. We’ll definitely use him again if needed!

Aria - what a journey!

He visited me and my partner on a low after a set of traders had scammed us via MyBuilder. We had no bath or shower and a broken bathroom in disarray. His calm and positive attitude set us straight and gave us hope as we started to build a bathroom from scratch with him. 

His expertise, knowledge and help was always there. Communication was excellent as he project managed the job bringing talented members of his team through for each part of the process (shout out to Dave, Leon, Barry and Mush). We are first-time owners and had never built a room before but he gave us confidence and reassurance whilst allowing us creative freedom to create our dream bathroom. There is so much choice out there for appliances, we'd have crammed safari tabs pages open on our sofa at night and send him countless bathroom fittings and he'd be able to help us make decisions on the right things within our budget.  

Building a bathroom in an old Victorian house you soon realise you encounter difficulties. Along the way we discovered exterior and interior pipes that were leaking causing the initial damp in the bathroom we knew we needed investigating. Aria fixed these for us and was patient in the fact the timeline became elongated and stuck with us all the way.

The final job has come out so well. The bathroom is no longer the room we would dread to show people but rather the new jewel of the flat! Aria is a local trader looking after his community and I couldn't recommend him more highly. 

From myself, my partner and our 3-legged cat Ziggy (who got lots of treats from Aria) thank you for your work.

Great work from Aria - he replaced a shower for me. He was prompt to reply to me and communicated well to make sure i was happy with what he planned to do. His work was good and he was able to do the job in a good time scale. 

Aria provided a brilliant service repair a leak in my bathroom. The repairs were efficient and well done. I have to give a big shout out to Aria who was communicative and gave advice throughout the whole process. If you want reliable and trustworthy tradesmen, he is your man!

Aria came to my rescue! I had to turn my water off due to a leak and had called a number of plumbers who couldn’t help. But then spoke to Aria who came round within the hour and got my leak fixed and water back on! Very communicative and kept me updated on what and how he was completing the job. Definitely would recommend and use again. Thank you!

    • "Mysterious owners" 😆  If only there was a powerful search engine at our fingertips to find out such deep secrets.        
    • It's the "due to commercial reasons" line again that is vexing. Last year it seemed, although there was a similar level of objection, that the reasons were commercial - Gala didn't appear entirely prepared to run 3 more events, or more likely didn't have sufficient interest from other promoters / organisers who could 'sub-let' the site as with Brockwell Park (I believe?). This year they appeared more organised, had another year to plan & prepare, to the extent they actually had names for two of the three new events which indicated to me that they had third party promoters / organisers in place.  So yes, it does make you wonder whether the repeated level of objection, combined with the impending elections, led to the council 'advising' that maybe they shelve it again? I'm afraid I can't see the whole extension application just being a ruse to guarantee permission for the 'regular' event. Gala are a commercial venture with ambition - every festival's business plan is to expand, expand, expand, year on year on year. Gala won't give up until they have taken over the whole park for a Summer of Raves, and the mysterious owners are on their yachts counting their ££££
    • Thanks for that. Maybe forthcoming elections have stymied the 7 day request? If Labour get back in, do we think GALA will try with greater success in 2027?
    • Better late than never, same obscure reason as previously for not going ahead with the extended plan... "Due to commercial reasons, the event organisers have withdrawn their application to hold a 7- day event over two weekends. The application has been revised to request the use of Peckham Rye Park to hold a 4-day event over one bank holiday weekend with the following schedule: • Onsite: Monday 11 May 2026 • GALA: Friday 22 – Sunday 24 May • On the Rye Festival: BH Monday 25 May • Off-site Sunday 31 May 2026 This is the same event programme that was delivered in 2025."  GALA 2026 consultation findings report 1519.pdf
