We need to find someone who can strip paint from skirting boards, door frames, window frames etc in our flat in Forest Hill (three large rooms and a hallway).

It's quite a bit of work and we believe there is lead paint in places so it would need to be done carefully using a heat gun and the right mask etc.

My husband has done one room but it's too time consuming with a full-time job! We had some tradesmen on it but they managed to burn the wood and generally make a big mess of it. It's not a difficult job, just time consuming and needs to be done with care on the mouldings etc.

If anyone is able to recommend someone for this kind of work that would be great. We're new to the area and struggling to find good people.

Thanks

  NYE is always like this. If you’re concerned about your pets, please consider seeing a vet as they can help. We give our dog valerian and play calming music, which helps especially after long walks and a big dinner. If it’s for yourself, it’s one night, so also suggest seeing your doctor for advice. It is loud, although more predictable ( kept to evening:to midnight) than Guy Fawkes celebrations which go on for days and are arguably selfish and inconsiderate. Either way, it’s a very difficult time for many.

  Happy New Year all, I sent a request for reimbursement of fines issues during all this …. Lambeth Council issued unjust parking tickets. Got a reference number back from them.. not heard for three months and from memory expires in Jan. Been round Lambeth Council offices and got know no where except being passed round in circles. Does anyone have a contact number or name please? Talking about a couple of hundred quid. Please do delete if not allowed but sure others have been effected as well… Thanks and Happy New Year.
