Highly recommendable Builders

Recommended Posts

George my builder and his team have done a fantastic job building me a double story extension, re routing sewers/drains, and re configuring the current layout, steel box frames fitted, windows, plumbing, plastering, decorating...the works. They have payed attention to detail so the finish is great, are willing to listen and respond to your requests and want you to be happy with the finished job. They have worked relentlessly and reliably and are always happy to be there.....no winging and complaining like so many builders I have used in the past. They have made the process a pleasure. George's mobile is 07570 924915. Or contact myself. Tim

Please please please do not use George the builder. I have had the most terrible and stressful experience with him. The job was for a loft conversion and reconfiguration.


I don't really want to write a whole long story here but only to say that I now have an ensuite bathroom that has no very vital outgoing pipe connection rendering the bathroom unusable and to put one in means ripping up walls and tiles. The kitchen is incomplete - oven, stovetop and worktop not installed. Electrical wiring and lights not complete with wires hanging out the walls. He has not shown building control a large portion of the work, which means that they now need to open up walls to inspect. To top it all the staircase is not compliant. I can't even begin to comprehend the cost to fix everything, the disruption and stress. Further to this I also now need to redo the roof as well as all the electrics in the house.


George has now 'disappeared'. He will not return calls. I have scaffolding all around my property with no numbers of who to contact to take it down.


My process has been anything but a pleasure.

    • Anywhere near the Overground/Windrush due to its excellent transport links.  You will get larger place in SE23 for example that will give you enough spare cash for private school if that's what you really want but states schools generally good, reflecting the demographic  Easy to get to the bustling streets of East Dulwich but in ten years see what happens to Forest Hill centre.  The whole of the area is full of green spaces. Access to East Croydon for days out in the South Coast   
    • Could East Dulwich or Forest Hill work? Some properties on Underhill Road and Wood Vale have large gardens e.g.  https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/161079866#/?channel=RES_BUY  You'd be close to the Horniman, Dulwich Park and Peckham Rye. Transport might not be what you're looking for though e.g. a 15 minute walk to Forest Hill station for the East London line or mainline into London Bridge.
    • I would leave London, or at a push move back to north London. In SE London if you want to get away in a car you are trapped, always an hour to go the first 10 miles, chugging up to the M4 or round the south circular, which is really just a line someone drew connecting a load of roads. and I know there are trains but first you have to get to those mainline stations, unless you only want to leave London to go to Kent. which I don't. 
    • It was you who  made it personal in the first place,  Jazzer. You said you didn't feel safe in the streets,  and you said you didn't go to Central London because you didn't feel safe there. So are you now saying that wasn't "personal"? "Fire from the hip." Another interesting choice of words 🙄 I'm not "demanding" anything! I asked you some perfectly reasonable questions in  response to your own statements. None of which you have answered. Never mind. It seems to be pointless having a discussion with you. It's long past my bedtime. I'm going to turn on my sleep app  and go to sleep 😴💤
