If the blocked drain is outside and running into the main drainage system I would first call Thames Water. They will send out an engineer quickly who will ascertain if it's their problem - ie caused by a blockage in the main system that's outside the boundaries of your own property. If this is the case they will sort it out free of charge. If it turns out to be your problem they will quote to complete the work or let you call in a plumber. I have found them to be highly competent.

Another recommendation for Dave from Down the Drain. Unblocked the drains at my Mum's house within a day of me calling him, called me to let me kow he was going to be slightly late (as my Mum is elderly and he didn't want her to worry), charged very little, called me afterwards to let me know what the issue was and gave some sound advice about how to tackle the issue should it happen in the future. I'm delighted. http://down-the-drain.co.uk/

      Plumber recommendation – Mark at Pure Plumbers

      By JessicaCT · Posted

      A shout out for Mark, owner of Pure Plumbers. 07970 971510 They're well established in the Sevenoaks area, but have recently started doing more work in SE London.  Did some v quick and efficient bathroom and boiler fixes for me; have also seen some of the bathrooms he's built, which have a nice attention to detail.

      New Empanada Place on LL

      Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?

      Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain.

      Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
