RELIABLE BATHROOM FITTER / TILER REQUIRED - WARNING


RPK073

Recommended Posts

Seems noone wants any work in Dulwich anymore!


Ive been badly let down by 2 bathroom fitters now; the first I got off here who bascially destroyed my flat and left the place in a complete mess to the point where I had to take evidence. The second was a recommendation who made promises he had no intentaion of keeping.


I am pretty shcoked and disapointed at the quality of traders in the area who are actually prepared to actually have some respect for their clients and do as they said they would. My request was quite simple and to actually see how some of these guys work is shocking; how they remian in business is anyones guess.


My request:

Main requirements:

Finish floor - grouting, may need some levelling.

Seal and skim one wall.

Tiling on 2 full walls; 2 half walls

Rad fitted

Bath and toilet linked up.


Is this really a big job?? Just after someone who has a few days to come in a complete the work I have been so badly let down with


Thanks

Richard.

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
