Clearly there's a split 50/50 those who object and those who think builders should have free reign. I am setting up a register of all those who don't mind builders in front of their home. Just pm me and everyone will be happy.

Imagine how many disintegrating bathrooms, kitchens and everything else are packed into all the crumbling, disintegrating, often neglected victorian houses within, say, a single square mile of your front door? Expect constant building work somewhere near you.


No need to be a dick about it though. Getting your kitchen finished three days earlier is not more important than *not* pissing-off everyone within earshot for weeks on end. Start at a reasonable time. Finish at a reasonable time.


Sometimes people park their own cars further away so the builders can get their stuff right outside their house and therefore just mess-up that bit of street rather than the bit outside someone else's house.

Fucking tractors rolling up at 5am, sections of the fields blocked off by endless bales of fucking hay and cows who think they can roam wherever the fuck they like, nothing worse than a pushy heifer, not to mention the shit they leave everywhere! Thank god for the sanctity of dense early 20th century urban sprawl.

Thanks peckhamgatecrasher, have been debating getting a bay for three years,but felt it unfair that i would be taking up a permanent space.however i am seriously considering it now,like others in this rd (think about myself only).

Also a one off incident 'i wish' this has beeen going on for 2 hlf years.skip outside my house for five weeks last summer.whilst thier car parked on drive,vans blocking any space any where near to me getting in.

Not hundred per cent but think you find that builders,deliveries etc are not suppose to make a nuisance until 8am.

not silly o'clock 6 am.

We all have work done to our homes,all i'm moaning about is the lack of consideration for each other.if your cars parked outside your house 'you move it for your builders' you park in the next street, dont inconvience others when you don't inconvience youselfs.

Seriously? Surely that's a sarcastic comment! I mean like why should someone go park in another street and inconvenience that street just becoz your neighbour can't park right outside their house? That's just ridiculous along with the notion that anyone has a given right to park directly outside their own house.

Thanks e-dealer,


Kalamity.neighbour does park outside their house that's the problem.suggest u read all my post again.

saddens me to think that you found my comments sarcastic,I felt that i was expressing my views and having a nice little debate on here about the annoyance of constant builders in my rd.

I am a psychotherapist i now feel i will have to take time out to reflect and psychoanalysis my comments and attitude in this debate.Hope none of the above you find sarcastic.

    • I have had disappointing deliveries from matoom too, it seems better when I've eaten in. Also they do their own deliveries if you order from their website.
    • Hope you all had a happy Christmas & good New Year  Here are your Gardening Tips  for February . Their not too long, but they need doing if you are to have a good garden this year  1. Pruning.  Before the birds need a nest prune your hedges especially the deciduous ones . Important to still prune Roses . Cut back Rose bushes hard to a bud & creating a rounded plant . Prune your trees before the sap rises especially Buddleja Hydrangeas hardy Fuschias Lavatera Bay Leylandii You can cut back Spring flowering tree’s after they have flowered later in Spring  Prune climbing plants like Virginia creeper & Ivy very hard . Remember they will grow back prolifically  You can prune Wisteria twice a year & February is one of them . Cut back the whips (smaller branches) to 3 buds before the main stems . You can prune a few of the thicker stems to give the plant shape & form. Give it a feed if you want it to flower  Cut back any grasses so they can grow in Spring  Prune Jasmines & winter flowering Jasmines. They will reward you with beautiful smelling flowers during Spring & Summer    2 If it ever gets dry again mow your lawn at top height of your mower. Repair patches & trim all borders with a half moon spade . It’s a good time of year to lay new lawns levelling the ground adding sand feed & topsoil    Power wash your patios paths & wooden structures & furniture. You can then give them an appropriate treatment when they have dried out  That’s it for now. I told you it wasn’t too long, Do these if you can, but if you want someone to carry it out for you, I recommend any of the we’ll recommended gardeners on the forum including myself & my colleagues  Please give me a call on :  07759862191. Well done if you managed to read this. Nigel
    • Hello, I’ve got a 1980’s  one if you’re interested it works fine a bit old school 
    • Another recommendation for Greg.  He provided excellent service - fast response, quote and then fitting the job in.  The inbuilt wardrobes he made are of a very high quality and he was a pleasure to work with.  Helped us with some additional shelving and a broken floorboard too.  Highly recommend!
