I can't recommend JKA Damp Proofing highly enough. We had been plagued by the same damp problem recurring for 15 years and had had it 'fixed' no fewer than four times only for it to reappear 12-18 months later (usually after we had just redecorated). Unlike previous companies, Jonathan left no stone unturned finding all the causes and was able to show us why all previous attempts were doomed to failure as they hadn't correctly identified and treated every issue, just patched things up. As well as the damp work, Jonathan does all the plastering himself and gets in his own carpenters to refit skirting etc. This avoids the problem of builders coming in after the damp work is complete and not following the instructions on the correct plaster mix, or nailing skirting instead of gluing, etc. He is incredibly hard-working and professional and, crucially, Jonathan's work is guaranteed by Triton.

You can reach Jonathan on 07713 187226.

  Surely nobody is going to want books in poor condition, unless they are rare and possibly valuable?

  Is that not only true within certain hours? I just did a quick Google and this came up (not specifically Southwark): The Noise Act 1996 defines "night hours" as 11 pm to 7 am, and local councils can take action if noise levels are excessive during this time. This means they can issue warning notices or even investigate for a statutory nuisance if the noise is particularly disruptive, according to Gov.uk. I'm sure it's more complicated than that, and I'm sure it's been discussed on here before, though I can't remember which thread.

  Get on those waiting lists asap if you haven't already. I waited till after the birth and it was very challenging getting a place once our daughter turned 1. She ended up at LEYF Camberwell (we had to accept 2 days to start and gradually got to ramp up 5 days). She absolutely loved it there after an initial shaky start but her key worker and team worked really hard to settle her in. They spent a lot of time giving her cuddles and making her feel safe. Great outdoor space and really caring, enthusiastic staff with low turnover. Would highly recommend.
