Recommend rubbish removal

If you want any rubbish removed I can recommend John. He is very quick to get back to you and come and do the job. I have used him twice to remove garden rubbish. His prices are very reasonable, nothing is too much and he is happy to help. John is a very pleasant and polite guy. 07904038332

Hi,

I used John after seeing the post on this forum (and signed up now to leave a recommendation). I send him an email on Thursday and he came straight back to me and then drove by in the evening to give me a quote. The price was extremely reasonable and he came two days after to clear the rubbish which was a mixture of all sorts of waste.


Very friendly guy and would use him anytime in the future without a doubt

I would say to avoid John. He may be cheap but only if he doesn't have other work on. As I've just found out in a very rude manner!


He originally quoted me ?150. I had some trouble getting neighbours permission to use side gate as they were worried about mess and damage. So had to ask a neighbour who's drive backs onto our garden.


I got back in touch with John after a couple of weeks. Who then quoted ?300. Even though the job was now easier 6/8 bags had already been moved to the front of the house by my other half. 10 were bagged up in the back garden. So the pile was a lot smaller. We had also proposed that we put the rubble at the back end of the garden to pass through a removed back garden fence directly into his truck (avoiding the need to barrow the rubble 100ft to the front of the house).


John was awful and rude to me on the phone. Told me he could do it if we were ready right NOW. Which we said would be fine if he wanted to help move the rubble to the back of the garden. But if we moved it as suggested by us (in an attempt to make his job easier) then it would need to be later this afternoon. He then said "the thing is love I have work coming out of my earholes" if you can't do it right now then I don't want to do it! He was pretty much shouting at me on the phone. Very aggressive.


The thing is had he said I'm snowed under this weekend. Can I do one day next week. We would have been fine. I don't understand his manner if her likes recommendations and work to continue "coming out of his earholes"


I've used a lot of people off the back of recommendations on this forum. It's disappointing to come across such an awful tradesman.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
