Building and handiman services


Recommended Posts

I cannot recommend highly enough Aston. With 24 hours notice he rescued are home from a plumbing nightmare. It required that is significant part of the kitchen was dismantled to allow access to drainage. He completed the initial part of the work, moving cabinets and ovens with a days notice. He returned immediately after the quite simple plumbing matter was resolved and rebuilt the kitchen. The quality of work was exceptional. I am already planning more projects for Aston to undertake.

I would like to add to the already extensive thread on Aston. I found him through EDF and having read such positive feedback, asked him to come and fix some roman blinds to my Victorian bay windows. I am really glad I did. He arrived on time and set about hanging my blinds. They were made to measure and unfortunately, I hadn't done a good job as they were a little out. However, Aston did a great job to make sure they fit and also that they hung straight. Given how old the building is, the window were a little crooked but he did a very neat job and they look absolutely wonderful. He made sure that I was happy with each blind he hung before moving on to the next one. He was also kind enough to help fix a door handle which required a bit of extra effort. He did a great job overall, was competitively priced and I would have no hesitation in asking him to help with other jobs. I do have a few more planned so will definitely be reaching out him!

    • Hi - Have you seen the photo in nivag's post 'Lost cat at Dulwich Hamlet FC'? It looks as if it could be Gigi (assuming she's still missing).
    • Could that be Gigi?   See post of 8 Nov below.
    • As I may have said before those that knew him  at DC who I have met sat similar, but not sure if they are quoting the above contacts or first hand experience.  And of course that he has changed the pronunciation of his surname
    • A detailed account of Nigel Farage's alleged racist and neofascist behaviour while he attended Dulwich College appears in the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-interactive/2025/nov/18/deeply-shocking-nigel-farage-faces-fresh-claims-of-racism-and-antisemitism-at-school Obviously for most the relevant question is if these allegations are true, then is Farage a suitable person for public office? But for Dulwich local yokels (and tbh anyone that's already formed a firm opinion about Farage), the more interesting question might be whether Dulwich College incubated and tolerated pupils' racist and bigoted behaviour at the time? After all, the allegations include that NF and a number of other boys sang songs about gassing Jews and engaged in other bigoted behaviour, that teachers were either present or aware of that behaviour, and that nothing was done. It's remarkable that pieces of the reporting abour 40 years ago mirror some of the allegations about Dulwich College's reaction to some pupils' alleged sexist and predatory behaviour 4 years ago. Minimisation, dismissal, wilful blindness... https://www.thetimes.com/uk/crime/article/i-warned-head-of-dulwich-college-about-abusive-boys-five-years-ago-xkxgjftk8 https://www.theguardian.com/education/2021/mar/26/dulwich-college-head-warns-pupils-over-culture-protest
