Builder needed to turn coal bunker into outside cupboard

Recommended Posts

Hello - I live in Honor Oak in a 50s ex-council flat. I have one of those brick coal bunkers by my front door and want the front knocked out of it and some secure doors fitting so I can use it as an outside store. It also has a concrete 'lid' with a hatch in it that will need covering or replacing.


Can anyone recommend a builder with a large lump hammer?!

Hi Karen,


I'm doing exactly the same thing to mine! I live on Brockley Grove, ex-local, 1950s with coal hole. I've had a builder to quote me for it etc, I want to put my washing machine in mine so I need it wired up for elec and waste water. I've also asked him to fit a secure door to it. His name is Steve Davis, at Rutland Building; he's been recommended on here and I'm considering asking him to do a full kitchen re-fit for me but it's not started yet so I've got no first hand experience of his work. Want me to let me know how it goes?

    • I know people won’t have any sympathy but the SEND challenge was brought up when taxing parents who have opted for independent school to meet a child’s SEND needs. Funding crisis is getting worse and the VAT on Education pushed children out of independent schools, now their SEND needs are to be met by the state.
    • I completely agree with you - and last night was really terrible where I am. Between midnight and 1am was the worst, where it genuinely felt like a war zone. I had to run out of my house to try and stop a grown man setting them off in open space right by our front doors. In response he went to throw a half lit one at me and then seemed to think better of it. I am so sad at how bad the situation has got here and how selfish people are. Fireworks are bad for the environment and for pets and wildlife, as well as just being unnecessary noise for people too. I have sent an email today to Helen Hayes, which I have done previously on this issue. Would advise anyone to write to your MP to do the same, and to ask them to engage with the debates scheduled for 19 Jan.
