Reliable and affordable builder recommendations please

Hello all,


We have just been informed by our builder that he can no longer do our project so are now looking for a new team. We need to completely refurbish a Victorian terraced house in North Dulwich - wiring, central heating, plastering, all rooms and bathrooms, kitchen, roof and other bits and bobs. We are looking for someone who can take on the entire project rather than individual tradesmen. We were looking to start in September if that's relevant.


Thank you in advance!

We used Emerald & Clay and they did a great job.


We had to completely rebuild the back of the house which was subsiding. We put in a new kitchen and opened up the back of the house to the garden. We also put in a new bathroom, re-wired, re-plumbed and re-plastered the house, put in a new boiler and outside they landscaped the garden for us.


They project managed the build very well and stuck to budgets.


Will is the contact. His email address is [email protected] and his mobile is 075 8864 8868.

I've also used Emerald & Clay recently and they were great. I had an old cement patio that was badly cracked and didn't drain properly. E&C dug the whole lot out, installed a new drainage system and layed a new patio using stone i'd chosen (which they then sourced).


They even painted my fence and jet-washed the decking to make the job have a quality finish in the end.


I didn't have to do anything and the whole job was completed in 5 days. The guys were great - very friendly and it came in under budget.


Will was the same contact I'd found from a previous recomendation on here...

Hi,


Another recommendation from Emerald and Clay (Will, Mark and team) here. I'm based in Peckham/Camberwell SE5 and have just had my ground floor flat completely renovated by them - new internal configuration, extension, new bathroom, new kitchen, ceilings raised, floors lowered, new plumbing, electrics, the works. Extremely high quality work, which they take pride in. Always kept me informed. I completely trusted them. Would highly recommend talking to them.


Mark. PM me if any questions.

    • While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude. 
    • I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.   
    • I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.
    • I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided.
