Building contractor - Lambeth street properties

Recommended Posts

Hi all,


I live in Camberwell SE5 and am currently in a section 20 consultation for Major Works with our freeholder Lambeth Council.


They have given us the opportunity to nominate contractors for the works, which will include roof, external masonry, windows and guttering repairs over around a dozen street properties. The work is currently scheduled for Q1 2021


Lambeth are trialling a new process to try and get better value for leaseholders and the authority, and also to try and give local businesses a chance to bid.


I would really welcome recommendations from any ED construction businesses who could possibly meet the Lambeth criteria - they do need to be big enough to take on the job. This will mean that the business is almost certainly registered on Constructionline (https://www.constructionline.co.uk/) and will have formal systems in place for H&S, training etc. Minimum capital reserve criteria will also apply.


I would love this big chunk of work to go to a local business who will use local sub-contractors and local suppliers to keep the money in our area - thanks in advance for any suggestions you might have.


Dan

    • Yiddish is written in Hebrew script, traditionally, so any attempt to use 'Roman' script will be transliteration, as noted. Hebrew script does not have vowels as such, so any vowels used will try to copy the Yiddish sound of the word. Bagel and Beigel are both correct transliterations of the Yiddish word. 
    • Have they still not fixed it? that's pretty shabby. I took this picture on New Year's Day and it's been like this at least since before Xmas.     
    • To be fair, if I saw you eating any of the parcels I'd have walked out. I noticed last night that the illuminated sign now describes this place as the POT OFFICE. Presumably THC vapes are more profitable than being a drop-off point for bloody Evri
    • Housebuilding isn't that profitable and housebuilders don't have social responsibilities. The affordable housing component is just a tax on new builds. It's a total failure by government - a fantasy belief that the private sector is going to solve the state's social housing crisis for free. It's like expecting Tesco to solve child humgrr by giving away a percentage of its products. It's not gonna work - it just slows down and disincentivises private sector construction of new housing. The only solution to the housing crisis is a massive increase in the supply of housing, not a couple of "affordable" flats in a new development. The state needs to solve the problem of NIMBYs (one of whom is prominent on this thread), get out of the way of private sector developers building private rentals and homes for sale, and borrow to build a huge amount of social housing.
