Building help required for ED resident

Hello EDF


I am posting on behalf of a friend. She had a stroke last year and has been in hospital since. She is due to go home soon for the first time since last November but some essential work needs to be carried out before she can return. We are looking for local companies who can help with the following and ideally turn it around in 4 to 6 weeks. It does not need to be one company, we are happy to manage multiple business/tradespeople. I suspect this is going to be tricky to find at the moment, but the EDF is also great for recommendations, so you never know. Here are the jobs we need help with


1 ? Knock together an existing bathroom and WC to create a single tiled bathroom. Approx finished size 2.5m x 2.5m

2 ? Reposition one door (block and make good the old position) and make another door frame wider ? hang two new doors

3 ? Make good an existing kitchen. Change worktops, cupboard doors, box a few things in, maybe add new sink. Plumb in new Washer Dryer and Dishwasher

4 ? Redecoration ? Clean and prep walls then re-paint Hall, Living/Dining room, Kitchen, Stairs, Landing, 2 x bedrooms, Small Office

5 - Some additional carpentry/handy-person jobs (about 2 days worth)


Very keen to see if anyone has any recommendations

Many thanks


Robin

    • What can be done? How about reporting it to the police? 
    • I can also strongly recommend Lukasz after he completed some floorboard repairs and some complex repairs to skirting damaged through dog chews. He is responsive, punctual, reasonably priced, detail-oriented and his work is to a very high standard. 
    • Really? Yes you are probably right as I know from personal experience with Guys… as I claiming travel costs back, that no one told me I could claim! Left hand does not know what right hand is doing regarding admin..  If they charged people for wasting overstretched staff in A& E as in not urgent just might deter people from wasting precious time…. But then you need interpreters, to explain if language is a barrier and admin staff to administer..  Correct me if I am wrong but is there not a train from Denmark Hill or East Dulwich which goes to London Bridge? Would be faster than 2 buses I would have thought.    Oh, forgot about Tessa Jowell but thought you needed GP referral in which case, that would be the place to go rather than a bigger hospital. Know there is one in Beckenham and you can call and they will give you an idea as to wait time…..same I hope at TJ…assuming they answer phone.. If one really things about it…too many  people in London for example and to few hospitals…    
    • I don’t think it’s licensed for Sundays. It is licences for Fridays, but there hasn’t been anyone there on a Friday for years. So I doubt it. i think there’s a market at the Horniman on Sundays. Also pretty sure there’s one outside Herve Hill station on a Sunday.
