Builder recommendations - brickwork stitching, pointing.


KidKruger

Recommended Posts

I've a builder that's disappeared on me, having raked-out brickwork for pointing and prepared a small area for stitching (small area). There's a also a couple of newly-fitted double-glazed windows needing sealing from outside.

There's also a bit of external waste pipe work required (bath/shower/sink outlets).

I've already paid a plasterer to straighten/flatten a stud wall ("you never said you wanted the stud wall vertical").


Any recommendations from EDF members with a posting history would be appreciated.


Reminds me why previously I've done all my own work - might not get a perfect finish, but the job gets done.

    • Large supermarkets, the big shop, not relying on mum getting the bus into town, longer opening hours, end of price controls and other restrictions.  All affected the high street well before the internet.   Rye Lane is still pretty buzzy.  Loads of independent shops.  Modern life is not always rubbish 
    • Don't know about Lordship Lane, but Rye Lane 50 years ago would be four deep on the pavement on a Saturday, not no more then.  Amazon and the supermarket home delivery services have one heck of a lot to answer for. Stop using them, get back to the shops before the choice becomes so limited. In fact, do one thing, ditch using Amazon. 
    • Adding a recommendation for Andy, who just did a job for us hanging heavy mirrors and pictures in our house. He gave a clear and fair price, works very tidily, made sure that I was happy with the work and placement of the pictures and is very pleasant to have around. 
    • In what sense? Be more specific  (and I have worked in retail and hospitality)  nothing I said is in any way anti-retail as far as I can see  Out of interest and for comparison, which country do you think gets it right to a significant degree?
