Recommendation for builder - London Remodelling


Polly Aubrey

Recommended Posts

Hi


We have just had an extensive flat refurbishment carried out and I would highly recommend our builder Alex who's company is www.londonremodelling.co.uk.


Alex and his team completely refurbished our flat including; Structural works - chimney removal, window opening enlargement, extensive floor joist replacement, ceiling replacement, roof strengthening. Architectural works ? new toilet, kitchen, new electrics, new gas and plumbing, new gutters, plastering and painting etc.

During the works Alex uncovered a unstable floor and we ended up having to replace most of the floor joists in a section which was quite complex. Alex?s team worked through the weekend to minimise disruption and only added one week to the programme which was exceptional considering the increased scope of works.


The quality of workmanship is very good. I added extras in as the works progressed and they were priced very fairly and the work carried out efficiently. They closed out all snags immediately, were tidy during the works and minimised disruption to the neighbours. I would not normally post but I know how difficult it can be to find a good builder.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
