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!

    • Our camera caught two folks doing this. One of them led me to believe the delivery driver was in on it as he left the package in a very odd place that the thief (who arrived about 10 minutes after from a direction where he could not have seen where the driver left it) went straight to it and took it - but he then dumped it halfway down the next road as clearly packets of freeze-dried food for a DofE award wasn't to his liking (karma sucks!). The second time a guy pulled his bike up in broad daylight, walked down to our door, opened the box, threw the empty box down and stuffed what he had found in his backpack and brazenly waved at the camera and then cycled off. Police asked us to upload his picture but we never heard anything back.
    • I hear that Landells Road has had a spate of parcels being taken,
    • In the 1960s my husband went to a private day school, Although he was a bright child having won a couple of scholarships to other private schools, his father chose this particular one. He went from 11 - 14 years and left as unhappy with the set up which was based on ethnicity. All boys with both parents English were placed in the A stream regardless of academic ability, Boys with an Irish background were placed in B stream. All others were C streamed - this included boys with a Black or Asian  background, mixed race or mixed European background. His schooldays came to an end when he wished to learn Latin and he was told that no boy in C stream could participate in this subject. His father (not English) was very upset at this and withdrew him from the school and sent him  to a country boarding school.  The experiences he had with his schooling culminated in a breakdown of his mental health and several months in Maudsley. He had low self esteem and it took several decades for him to understand that it was the school system and not his ability which had failed him
    • Actually, one of the reasons Sylvester Road was closed was that the space available as more and more parcels were part of the mix was insufficient (and the facilities were primitive). And that was before Covid when parcel delivery numbers soared. Sylvester Road as it existed then would not have coped, probably (and the move to Peckham, when Covid arrived, showed that that wasn't sufficient either!).
