Builder recommendation and idea of costs please?

Recommended Posts

Hello!


We'd love to do some work on our kitchen and wondered if anyone could recommend an affordable/competitive local builder who could pop round and have a look/give us a quote?


I also wondered if anyone had done something similar to what we'd like to do and has any idea of price we would be looking at? We can't afford to do a side return extension but basically we'd like to do the following:


Remove old kitchen range chimney breast taking up space in kitchen.

Remove old outside toilet and make that part of the kitchen.

Build up by about the level of 5 bricks on the back of the kitchen where the roof slopes and remove a very low big RSJ.

Add a bifolding door onto the garden.

Move around current kitchen units so there's room for our dining table next to the bifolding windows.

Maybe put in 3 small double glazed windows and remove bay window but not sure on this.


Thanks so much for this, any help or suggestions much appreciated!!!!

Hey - we had our kitchen redone last year by Dennis who was very good, here's his email address...

Also, I've found a great builder recently who's helped with the garden and other bits and bobs around the house, so he might also be interested and it's always good to get a couple of quotes. His name is Richard, mobile: 07719 098350


Hope this helps,

Hi there


I would happily recommend David O'Brien, I've put a review of him on this thread including the work he did for us.

Since I posted last time we have used his team to fit a new back door and lead flashing and guttering. We have been very happy with all the work his guys have done and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

Dulwich Multitrade, 296 Lordship Lane, tel: 02084807162 are terrific and can do absolutely everything - no need to bring in any outside contractors. We have used them several times and have found them to be reliable, efficient, pleasant and also reasonable pricewise.

    • I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?
    • Always preferred Grace and Favour to the BMC, commented in the past on this and sadly long since gone   
    • If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.
    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
