Hi everyone, I live on Dunstans Road and every weekend (throughout Saturday & Sunday) our neighbours have been doing construction work.


It?s been pretty noisy and disturbing, and today I went over to ask them to stop as it?s a Sunday!


They don?t seem interested in keeping it to more considerate hours - does anyone have any advice? Or is there anyone from Dunstans Road who this has disturbed too?


I miss the days of having a a Sunday not interrupted by drilling or sawing.

If they are using builders who do not live there then it is classified as a construction site. Southwark has rules

8 until 6 Monday to Friday

8 until 1pm on Saturdays

No work on Sundays.

If they are doing it themselves, it is DIY and they should be considerate

Also they are obliged to contain dust

We have the same problem pretty much every summer with construction noise from one neighbour or another every weekend. A couple of weekends ago somebody even had a wedding reception with 30 guests and loud music in their garden on Saturday night. People are very inconsiderate of others. A couple of times we tried to get the council to help with the noise but found them rather ineffective.

    • For the North Cross Rd one, other than this post on the day,  the only sign I saw was a few papers on lampposts saying no parking due to an event.  It didn't say what the event was. On the day at around 1.45pm all the parked cars were still there and there was just 1 unusual stall (an info stand about a children's activity group).
    • Hope all the ‘high streets for people’ events went well! Very short notice probably for people living in the area and on a very hot day!  James McAsh just doesn’t know what to do next with Southwark Council Tax payers money. He advocates the few streets in the area that has a bus service and then shuts the routes down! Very annoying for people who want to go about their daily business and have already had restrictions brought in by McAsh. 
    • Thank goodness for Greg. I had an awful situation whereby I was notified that water was leaking from my flat into the flat below me. I was 150 miles away at the time and had a panicked journey home not knowing what I was going to face.   I called Greg (after seeing reviews on the forum) as soon as I arrived home in the evening and he arrived just after 10pm and was able to shut off the problem. He had to come back to finalise the job which turned out to be caused in a communal area whereby there was a blockage in the stack pipe.   Greg worked quickly, efficiently and informed me every step of the way as to what he was doing and why. He also cleaned up really well afterwards.  Greg's charges are very reasonable and he will definitely be my "go-to" if I have any other plumbing issues in the future.
