South London Lofts

Recommended Posts

Loft extensions are quite the thing in East Dulwich but beware South London Lofts. They told us how much local experience they had, how focused they were etc but once the contract was signed they handed over to a company called Build London who we had never heard of and didn't know we were about to employ. 18 months after they began work we are still waiting for them to finish the snagging. It is impossible to get hold of them, they never turn up when they say and the frustrations of the build mean we wish we had never heard of them. Make sure you don't just get a start date for the work but an anticipated completion date with penalties for failure to comply. It would be quicker to train as a builder and do it yourself than use this company. You have a choice. Do NOT use South London Lofts.

We used South London lofts too. We went to it with our eyes open as there was some negative comments about their lack of communication etc. They were however substantially cheaper than other companies. We were on a tight budget. We were aware they sub contracted to Build London. I don't think this is that unusal. They were a bit painful with the snagging but I found dealing with Neringa in the admin team much easier. This is the email for her if you don't originally have it - [email protected]. Don't bother with Craig or your PM go straight to her team. She'll sort it all out. She did for us.


Although it was painful we were happy with the end results so hopefully you will get it sorted asap

    • Received this response from TFL today (15 October)   Thank you for contacting us on 1 October regarding the ongoing diversion of the P13 bus route between Rye Lane and Sainsbury’s, Dog Kennel Hill, since 29 September. You’re absolutely right that the diversion is due to Thames Water works in the area. While other traffic may appear to be flowing freely along Avondale Rise into Ivanhoe Road, our local Service Delivery Manager has confirmed that buses are unable to safely make the turn from Avondale Rise into Ivanhoe Road in either direction. This is due to the size and turning radius of the vehicles, which differs significantly from that of smaller vehicles. We understand that diversions can be inconvenient and appreciate your patience while this work is ongoing. We’re continuing to monitor the situation closely and will restore the usual route as soon as it is safe and operationally feasible to do so. Thanks again for contacting us. If there is anything else we can help you with, please reply to this email. Alternatively, you can call us on 0343 222 1234 and we'll be happy to help you.
    • If anyone is looking for a tree surgeon, I recommend Hamish and Cut Above Tree Management. He was very helpful and personable, quick to respond and did an excellent job of removing a wonky tree in my garden with a minimum of hassle. A fantastic service!
