They will take up to 15 items free a month. !


So I put in a request to take a Fridge Freezer, Heater and Carpet.


Funny question came back. How many carpets?


I replied 1 12ft by 12ft. They rang me. Our vans wont take objects taller than 10ft.


I took a deep breath and said ITS ROLLED UP. "oh" said the relieved waste man then I think we can take it.

I don't understand why you posted this, as it seems you are making fun of someone at Southwark who wasn't perhaps very good at maths, and you appeared to have got one over on him. Why not say that you will fold it in half and then it will be approximately 6 ft.

Yep T-E-D, carpet I am familiar with, your logic not so much, still don't get your point:

Where does, "it's rolled up its 12 inches tall nothing to do with maths" make that statement make sense?

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
