Came home from work yesterday on Underhill road to find a big stack of what looks like Tar for a driveway on our front path in our front garden ... A/ we don't have a drive and B/ we didn't order it.

I have attached a photo of what it looks like, I don't think its been dumped as its been neatly stacked, and its new and still wrapped in plastic.

Would appreciate if anyone can help as its a bit tricky manoeuvring past it in the morning :/

If is Afghan black my reply would be the same as if it was Liquorice.

I am Keen to find out who's placed it here still and find its rightful owners... (also keen as who ever left it here can repair any damage to the path too they might have caused)

emu> That looks like Tar used for a flat roof, so best off

emu> looking for someone that's got some roofing work happening.


Just in case someone searches online for the stuff, let's throw a few more keywords into the mix:


Misdelivered Underhill East Dulwich SE22 5663 CROMAR Oxidised bitumen slab grade 9525 23kg keg 5 September 2017

All sorted, just as I was leaving for work this morning two guys asked me to move my car, I asked why to which they said they needed to get equipment around the back to resurface a balcony and flat roof at my flat ... I pointed out I was on the ground floor and had neither. So one of the guys phoned his builder mate and said he thought he told him to deliver to (my) address... to which after a few expletives to said mate on the phone, I was sheepishly informed they were meant to be at a property the other end of Underhill.. the address no where near similar to mine apart from road name.

Hoping its all been shifted by the time I get home :)

Thanks for all the suggestions anyway.

    • Another review for Iain and Paul who came again, this time to refurbish the back of my front door. A wonderful job, and such lovely people too!  
    • To add, Ultimately the problems and remedial action go back to the landlord and the agents (Foxtons in this case) have to refer everything back to the landlord and get the landlord's consent to act, including instructing trades to undertake repairs. The landlord may be the underlying problem. Suggest use the above links and escalate, including sending written notices to both the agents and landlord direct. The landlord details should be stated in the tenancy agreement. For complaints / faults, make sure you have a written record including follow up in writing / email on all calls.
    • Absolutely mental what Labour have become/are doing  because I’m me - I am going to say, it was the denial of reality that was the 2016 referendum, the genuflection of it ever since and the aggressive behaviour of the right wing press ever since that have cowed weak, spineless politicians  Until them at shibboleth is defeated, we can replace governments and leaders as much as we want - won’t make a tack of difference  we are in bizarro world since 2016 - only the electorate recognising that vocally will we see improvements  without that, every government, party and leader will be in hock to fantasists  (there are things govts can do regardless of Brexit. Of course there are. But the root - the root problem - will continue to infect)
