Recommended: brilliant builder for Victorian tiled path - Bujar Doda


Recommended Posts

We?ve just had a black and white tiled path laid at our Victorian terrace by Doda, a brilliant builder who I wouldn?t hesitate to recommend. He also re-rendered our walls, fitted railings and a new gate, and laid slate slabs to the side.


Doda was diligent, polite, honest and a pleasure to have around. His rates were very reasonable too. Let me know if you?d like to see photos of our path - happy to send.

Hi Kittenheels - thank you so much for this recommendation. I rang Doda after reading your message and he came round straight away to give me a quote and we went ahead with it. The job is almost finished and I am so happy with it, I wanted to share too!


Nik & Doda completely renovated the front of our Victorian terraced house. They worked to our brief and built new walls, piers and laid a tiled path and resin surface, as well as prepping and painting the front of the house and door. Much of the detail on the front of the house had been lost due to years of just painting over it, but Nik took great care to bring back the sharp edges and detail before painting. It was all done for a good price and with a smile. We are fussy but have been so pleased with this company and would definitely use them again and highly recommend them.


Edited to include photos! And again to take off the duplicate photo!!

A further recommendation for Doda and his colleague.


Doda attended my property and provided a quote within an hour and completed the works the following day. The job was a relatively small one, taking up old tiles and replacing with new on my front door step. Doda provided expert knowledge, was a tidy worker and was very punctual. His quote was also very competitive. I wouldn't hesitate to use him again.

Hello - Just wanted to add my recommendation for Doda and his team who have just finished a Victorian tiled path at my house as well as painting a wall and digging and taking away a dead hedge. Very neat and tidy job and to a high standard.

Adding my recommendation to this thread, which is where I came across Bujar Doda.


What a brilliant find! Bujar is an excellent builder and a great person to deal with.


We got him to do various repairs to our long boundary wall in Camberwell, including


- removing and reinstating a tree damaged section of brick wall

- repointing and refacing brickwork

- repairing and painting sections

- repairs to victorian tiled path


He was quick to come round, produced a reasonable quote and was great on site - good communicator, tidy and really nice to have around. We were really pleased with the end result and very much hope to work with him again on other projects, but happy to recommend him in the meantime!

Hello,


I just wanted to reiterate how good Bujjar Doda is. He has just completed some work to both our front and back gardens in Camberwell; porcelain slabs at the front and back and replacement fencing with concrete posts and gravel boards. We got lucky and managed to catch him while he was between big jobs and he managed to fit us in last minute. We did have to panic buy the slabs and fencing on Monday evening for him to start on the Tuesday but the panic was worth it. He?s an excellent builder and I would wholeheartedly recommend him. He?s clean and polite, as is his worker and they go like the clappers with only a short break for lunch. None of the messing around you get with other builders/workers who promise to turn up and then they don?t.


I?m so glad I found his details on the EDF. We need a replacement shower as well and I would rather wait the 4 months to get him to do it than have someone come around to quote and then never get back to us. So sick of tradesmen doing that over the last year.

    • I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.
    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
    • This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.
