Recommendation for plumber: Francis

So a touch confused by the conflicting recommendations on here for Francis.


I first needed urgent help about a year ago when my u bend under the sink came away and I checked the ED Forum for reliable recommends and came across Francis's details. He came out within the hour on a Friday night for me and fixed the issue quickly and efficiently. Fast forward to last night and I came home to my water isolation taps under the sink frantically dripping. One call to Francis and, once again, he was with me within the hour to put a temp fix on the issue and returned this morning with the necessary parts to fix the issue.


I can only put my own seal of approval on Francis and will have no hesitation in calling him again as he has been, for me, fast, efficient and relatively reasonably priced.

This is about the fourth time that i've had Francis come around to help with plumbing issues....he came over quickly whn I called him and sorted me out with the minimum of expense and fuss...he's really the best plumber I've come across. I recommend him highly..If you would like to contact him..here's his number: 07552347157

just called Francis this morning about a blocked kitchen sink.

He came round within the hour explaind the problem and also explaind how to stop this from happening in the future and fixed the problem.

Will be using him again.

Thanks Ed forum and Francis.

Called Francis this morning as I tried to unblock my sink waste but couldn't put it back together.

He came out within the hour was vet polite and very well priced,

Fixed the sink waste and showed me how to do it in future.

Thanks Francis

Hi im new to the forum but was told by a friend to look for recommendations for a plumber on here.

I found Francis who I can say I'm very happy with.

I had a leak in my bathroom basin I called Francis and he got one of his team out to fix the problem.

Very happy customer.

And thanks john.

Found recommendations for Francis on the ED Forum shortly after moving to ED.


We are gradually going through a programme of renovating our flat. The first thing we needed to do was remove some old water piping which was sitting on the outside of the walls, running from the radiators, vertically up through the ceiling and into the system. This wasn't strictly a plumbing issue (leaks, etc), but was more to do with upgrading the 'look and feel' of the place.


Francis offered an extremely friendly and polite service. He came round within a day or two to scope the work, and then returned a day or two later (with a colleague) to complete the work. The plaster was drilled into and the previously externally visible pipes were recessed into a channel behind the surface of the wall. Once replastered, the pipes will no longer be visible. The job was well done and took a single day.


Furthermore, as a first-time buyer, I was a little concerned by stories of London Tradesman charging high prices. Francis certainly helped to allay these fears, as he did a fair job at a fair price. We will definitely be using Francis again as we continue to renovate our flat.


For those wanting to use Francis, his number is 07552 347 157.


Thanks again,


Nathan

Hi I'm new to the ed forum.

I'm finding IT very useful.

I found Francis on here and called him as I needed to get my washing machine installed.

He sent Castro round who was very professional and worked very quickly.

The job is done and I can wash my clothes.

Thanks Francis.

I very rarely post on this site but I do use it.. I found Francis the plumber on here. He came and done the job, and charged me reasonably. Very nice chap and done a great job. He asked if I found out about his services from the forum and if so to put up a recommendation. So here it is!

Great job Francis! I would recommend using his services.

    • Surprise, surprise. It didn't take them long, did it. This will be something of a test as to how much the council really care about parks and the environment. A footfall of 60,000. Are they mad? There is no way this park is designed for or can sustain that sort of use. Just had a look at the schedule. If allowed to go ahead, this will involve a large slice of the park (not the common) sectioned off and out of use for three weeks of May and the first week of June. Here's an idea, why not trial the festival in one of the other Southwark Parks, so the 'goodness' can be shared around the borough?
    • There was another unprovoked attack on Monday this week on a young woman nearby (Anstey Road) at 6.45pm. Don't have any other details, it was posted on a Facebook group by her flatmate. Pretty worrying  https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1EGfDrCAST/
    • OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.
    • Licensing application for 2026 has gone in and they want to extend the event from 4 to 7 days accross two weekends.  There are some proposed significant changes to be aware of:   Event proposal moves to two separate weekends Number of days of the festival moves from 4 to 7 meaning also a change in the original licence is required Expected footfall in the park over the two weekends around 60,000.    Dear Peckham Rye Park Stakeholder,   Re: STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION – event application: ‘GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’ – ref: SWKEVE000935   We are writing to you because you have previously identified yourself as someone who wishes to be informed about event applications for Peckham Rye Park, or we think that you might have an interest in knowing about this particular event application.   Please be aware that the council are in receipt of an event application for: GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’   In line with the council’s Outdoor Events Policy and events application process we are carrying out consultation regarding this application.   The following reference documents are attached to this email:   Consultation information APPENDIX A – site plan weekend 1 APPENDIX B – site plan weekend 2 APPENDIX C – Production Schedule APPENDIX D – 2025 Noise Management Plan   The consultation is open from Tuesday 4 November and will close at midnight on Tuesday 2 December 2025   Community engagement sessions will take place on Wednesday 19 November.   If you would like to comment on application: SWKEVE000935 and take part in the online consultation, please visit:   www.southwark.gov.uk/GALA2026   If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.     Kind Regards, Southwark Events Team Environment and Leisure PO Box 64529 London SE1P 5LX 020 7525 3639 @SouthwarkEvents APPENDIX A - SITE PLAN weekend 1.pdf APPENDIX B - SITE PLAN weekend 2.pdf APPENDIX C - PRODUCTION SCHEDULE.pdf And just to add that councillor Renata Hamvas chairs the licensing committee.
