You made the right choice - ED has all the gentle elegance of Tooting combined with the edginess of Hampstead.

Good answer!


You'll do well on this forum, friend.


Welcome.

Welcome to ED! IMO one of the nice things about ED is that you have lots of diverse neighbourhoods on your doorstep, each with its own gems in terms of things to see/eat/drink.


Dulwich Village for a genteel environment, world class gallery, nice old pub

Peckham for bars, good places to eat, cheap cinema, nightlife, and the best patisserie for miles around

Camberwell for several excellent restaurants, plus a pub with a crazy cider selection

Plus good places to eat and drink in Herne Hill, Forest Hill... hell, even Nunhead.

Not to mention Lordship Lane of course.

Hi there! My boyfriend and I have also just moved to the area from Scotland! Going really well so far, people are lovely and East Dulwich is just a beautiful place with a real sense of community. We are still finding our feet but a great pub we have discovered is the Lions Head, great food, lovely beers and really nice people. Good luck with the move and anything we can help with, just ask!

    • 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!
