When will the building work stop on Ulverscroft road? The street is infested with scaffolding, loud drilling and general banging and disquiet. It's insufferable!

 

You are objecting to building work being done because people want to repair or improve their houses?

You could start with asking the builders, no?

 

Building work is bound to be noisy. That noise obviously can't be helped.


What the builders do have control over is the blaring out of their radios 😡 and to a lesser extent shouting to each other (I can see that the shouting may often be necessary).


When neighbours are working at home, or otherwise at home during the day, constant loud radio noise - on top of the banging and drilling - which you can hear both inside your house and when trying to sit quietly in your garden is a nightmare 😭

What a bizarre post.. why object to building work on just one road in Dulwich? As Sue says it's surely people repairing or improving their houses. Building noise is unfortunately something we all have to deal with as the cost of moving is so high in London.

Obviously.

If the builders are respectful, you should consider yourself lucky.


One of our neighbours is currently having a loft extension. The builders drive up the street in the morning, peep their horn, then shout to whoever is on the roof with no regard to the neighbours. The manager constantly shouts & swears at his workers. It's appalling!

    • I’m in exactly the same position.  They badgered me for ages to have a water meter fitted.  I’d prevaricated simply because it’s so tedious dealing with these people but eventually gave in when the communications became increasingly frequent and aggressive and it was done in March 2023. I just assumed I’d then be charged on actual consumption but I received an email this morning with details of the latest price increase and it said, “Since your property doesn’t have a water meter, your bill is calculated in advance based on fixed rates rather than water usage”.  I’m sure they’ve realised I’d be paying much less if they billed me on actual consumption but have not gone out of their way to inform me.  Trawling through their website, for me anyway, is an unutterably tedious chore, but I think I’ll now have to work up the energy over the weekend to pick up the phone on Monday morning and have a word with them.  
    • Great Service again from Andy.  Contacted him with a couple of issues with toilet cistern and shower.  He came over and sorted it all out quickly. Good advice given, reasonable charge for the jobs.  Highly recommend Andy!   
    • Just seen this.  Your post was a bit unnecessary.  I was simply responding to the previous post that children should be cycling on the pavement. But as you say I know shed loads about transport.  Not to the depths that some go down to the minutia.  Some call me the space cowboy.  Some call me the gangster of love.  I think of myself as the people's poet.  You have to laugh at yourself. Echoing what DKH said, we weren't there, you don't know the parent was making a snide remark, My favourite Dulwich parent story was a few years ago were friends when we were in the Herne garden a few years ago, who let their children run riot.  Bless.  One decided to turn the hose on spraying some poor drinkers.  Now most of us would be mortified, but the friends welcomed their child's creativity.
