Hi, erstwhile resident of ED now abiding in Hackney and looking for peoples recommendations for extensive exterior work(New flat roof, rendering etc)and fitting of new bathroom and other sundry tasks internally. The whole process of getting reputable builders is fraught with difficulty and having just had an expensive and time-wasting run-in with your common or garden cowboys- "...erm, have you ever done any roofing work before?", "Sure, sure!" we really need to get it right this time. So, any advice and recommendations would be welcome. Thanks in advance, Mike.

Hi Mike.


I can totally understand about your cowboy issues having experienced the same.


I am having a side extension done on my flat in Camberwell and Mike and team are doing the work: 07507 629625


I am extremely pleased with what they have done and they are incredibly good value.


Good luck with it all.


Feel free to PM me for more info.

Hi I posted a recommendation earlier for our builders, the title is: recommendations following our house renovations...


The builders we used were: Valdex; very good, came in on budget and early even tho we added more jobs along the way; happy to show the work they've done for us (gutted and redid 2 bathrooms; replaced water pipes from street all through the house; new boiler; new electrics; underfloor heating on ground floor; moved kitchen from one end of the house to the other.



Feel free to message me if you'd like more details.

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
