Another 2 thumbs up for Gary Vu. He came over within hours to fix a problem with bathroom and living room lights. Traced the issue and resolved it very efficiently. Reasonable cost and also shared his Sea Bass recipe too :) Top man!

Gary did a brilliant job fixing a long term problem in our last flat, saving us a fortune because otherwise we'd have needed complete rewiring.


Tarnlee and his partner by contrast couldn't fix it despite several attempts and several bills.


I'd strongly suggest you address your own failings before criticising another professional like that, especially one as talented, capable and decent as Gary.

I used to think Gary was great but after using him first time (and being impressed - it was a weekend, he came quickly and did the job for a reasonable price) we used him for some basic jobs and found the price was far higher than expected, with mess left behind.


Perhaps he was having an off day or perhaps he was assuming everyone in ED is loaded - either way won't be using him again.

I would second Jellybeanz comments. We had Gary around to do some work. Agreed a price and then when the work was almost completed the price increased. This was a couple years ago but we had major electrical work done this year and were advised the work that was done by Gary needed to be corrected as it was not up to code. I have now learned all electric work should come with an electrical certificate. I didn't know this at the time but I would ask anyone doing electrical work for you if they can provide this for their work. If not, I would not use them.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
