Recommendation for a good Electrician

Recommended Posts

We've used Gary Vu for 2 jobs. The first time we were very grateful for his prompt help when our consumer unit kept tripping and we were without electricity. I have no doubt that he is a qualified electrician. On this basis we chose to use him again for a much bigger job over several days. Although his work was OK in the end, he made a couple of mistakes - which, per se, we were fine with. However, he then tried to blame and charge us for putting one of them right and we felt deeply disappointed about that. One of his mistakes also meant we had to fork out for the additional services of a plasterer. For these reasons alone, we would not use him again. Having said that, the end result is that our new lighting looks good and functions as it should.
Very happy to recommend Gary Vu for electrical work - we've used him for big and small jobs over the last few years and he always steps in at short notice reliably and with good humour even when the jobs have been minor. You can reach him on 07872 178044

    • That Neal Street veggie cafe was great. Food For Thought ❤️
    • Hi Dogkennelhillbilly, You won't be aware that i proposed infill sites for housing in East Dulwich - the garages on Bassano Street and Henslowe that respectively became 1-4 Dill Terrace family houses and the 78, 80, 80A Henslowe Street family houses. These were council owned garages and it was frustrating how slow the council was to go from my idea to completion (roughly eight years). East Dulwich has some other vacant WW2 bomb sites I'm guessing that the private land owners have been sitting on.Owe for a land tax for vacant land.  WRT to the builders yard by East dulwich station. Southwark Council has an agreed policy the area should remain suburban 2/3 storeys maximum. But the approved scheme is 9 storeys of student accommodation. Very hard to put this genie back in the bottle. The council has recently publicly stated lower ratios of social housing will be required. I will be amazed if the developer doesn't submit another application now they have the 9 storeys approved but with significantly less social housing. The less social housing the higher the land values. The higher the land values the less social housing viability reports state are possible.  If we really want to increase home supply - Southwark have over 6,000 empty homes. Vancouver charges a low % of the value of empty homes and rapidly eased this problem. Parts of Wales have introduced under Article 4 planning permission is required for second homes seeing within 12 months a dramatic decrease in property prices. Southwark Council have Article 4 requirements - why not add this one? It takes National political will to solve this AND regional and local authorities such as the second home council tax premium and these being used promptly. 
    • https://www.letslinkuk.net/ I'm interested to know why the OP didn't find this sort of scheme to work, as I would have thought it was much harder to find someone to do a direct exchange with? Does anybody else have experience of a scheme like this? Happy to be persuaded! 
    • I personally think is a great idea Bobbly and would love if there was a section for it. I wouldn't offer free gardening under the "for sale" section as I would expect something in exchange and wouldn't expect our cat being looked after for free under the "wanted" section, as an example.
