Hi everyone, I live on Dunstans Road and every weekend (throughout Saturday & Sunday) our neighbours have been doing construction work.


It?s been pretty noisy and disturbing, and today I went over to ask them to stop as it?s a Sunday!


They don?t seem interested in keeping it to more considerate hours - does anyone have any advice? Or is there anyone from Dunstans Road who this has disturbed too?


I miss the days of having a a Sunday not interrupted by drilling or sawing.

If they are using builders who do not live there then it is classified as a construction site. Southwark has rules

8 until 6 Monday to Friday

8 until 1pm on Saturdays

No work on Sundays.

If they are doing it themselves, it is DIY and they should be considerate

Also they are obliged to contain dust

We have the same problem pretty much every summer with construction noise from one neighbour or another every weekend. A couple of weekends ago somebody even had a wedding reception with 30 guests and loud music in their garden on Saturday night. People are very inconsiderate of others. A couple of times we tried to get the council to help with the noise but found them rather ineffective.

    • If you are looking for a trustworthy professional, I highly recommend Niko. He has consistently delivered quality work. No job is too small, and he is always accommodating. He has helped me out on a number of occasions, often at short notice when unexpected issues arose. His number is 07818 607583. 
    • Well, they do turn them away from the A&E route at Kings and rightly so they employ GPs and if after triaging you’re determined to have a GP type problem you are sent to see one of the GPs on site or close to the site. 
    • My bike (a ELOPS 120 step over classic from Decathlon) was stolen from outside The Belham this afternoon. I locked it up while I collected my kids, then the street was so busy that I left it there while I walked them home. Did a few other things at home, came back about 5.30pm and it was gone. Sharing just in case anyone sees it or finds it anywhere - it’s a few years old and the chain is a bit rusty/makes a clicking sound so maybe there’s a slight chance someone would dump it! Really annoying and just a reminder to be really careful with bikes. The picture shows the bike model from the Decathlon website.
    • Thanks, I didn't know that.  People are even more stupid than I thought then, if they are willing to wait hours in A&E for an ingrown toenail. I presume they don't get put at the front of the queue. Why isn't the 111 service more widely advertised? That puts you in touch with a doctor, who will advise on the phone or visit, and if necessary  you will be advised to go to A&E or they will arrange an ambulance to take you.
