I also recommend Keith Burgess for general building work. He has done some air bricks in my cellar and has done the work very neatly and with care. He also inspected the timber work under my floor and given me advice abut pipe lagging etc (not an easy inspection as there is very little headroom in most of the area.) I would also say that his price is extremely competitive.

I wanted to recommend Keith Burgess who's recently done some repointing and brickwork repairs for me. It was a very reasonable price, Keith worked quickly and was very tidy. He even came back a few days later to apply a water-repellent seal to a particularly porous area of the wall at no additional cost. Keith has a load of other recommendations on the forum, which is where I got his details. His number is: 07973 635035.

Happened to find Keith finishing a job on my street - asked him for a quote and he came in, excellent value quotes and kept in touch for start date. 2 days. 2 jobs complete (fixing a long broken gutter, pipe placement and sealing brickwork) He showed me the why, what and how along the way. He?s a great guy and genuinely did a great job with his son in support.

If you need pointing, brickwork, gutter repairs etc get him on 07973 635 035 or DM me if want photos

Another recommendation for Keith, just the nicest and most reliable person. He fixed our bay window sill, explaining the process beforehand and at a very reasonable cost. He even managed to avoid standing on the bulbs that had just started growing in our front garden and added in some repointing free of charge.

Keith has recently done a great job on repointing and refacing some of our brickwork at the front of our house. He was punctual and reliable, keeping us informed about when he was going to start. Did a neat and professional job, always clearing up at the end of the day. We will definitely use him in the future if the need arises

I contacted Keith regarding some brick work required on the exterior of our property. He was super helpful and went round to have a proper look and provided a very thorough and reasonable quote for the work to be done. Communication was excellent, Keith kept me informed as to his approach, the timing and sent photos of progress - really important as I don’t live locally anymore. We were impressed with the finished project and will certainly be using Keith again. Totally recommend!!

I recently had Keith Burgess 07973 635035 do some pointing at my house. Can highly recommend Keith, he does work to a very high standard is a great communicator is very pleasant to deal with and even spotted a problem on our flat roof which has saved the day (and potentially a lot of money).

We also highly recommend Keith Burgess and his son Charlie for all brickwork and pointing issues!

Keith and Charlie are friendly, reliable and honest guys who are masters of their trade.

They rebuilt our chimney stack and parapet wall that were leaning when we moved in - and completely fixed a fracture in the brick work at the front of the house.

The attention to detail, down to sourcing the right colour replacement bricks and matching the original mortal colour, meant that the new straight chimney stack and brick work blended in seamlessly with the rest of the house.

Keith and Charlie are very reasonably priced, and keep you informed all the way through the works with regular chats and daily picture updates.

We need more brickwork and pointing doing next year (classic Victorian house!) and honestly wouldn't choose anyone else over Keith and Charlie!

Keith's number is 07973 635035

    • I'm not in a bubble - if you read my post it says supportive of food bank info and community group info etc on the ED station board, where broad mix pass by when using train/bus/on foot. You're judging me but I can assure you I probably do FAR more for the local community than someone like you who simply posts something unhelpful in response to a conversation piece, asking for more opinions. Of course I know not everyone is middle class, I am working class worked up to middle class etc etc. I support various local groups, raise money for charity, give money to charity, give to foodbanks... the whole shebang. All I am saying is that there are ALSO other people who are interested in looking at the noticeboard for small business info around the area. Small businesses definitely need support and often make low profits and rely on advertising in places like these noticeboards. I'm entitled to an opinion and I am very honest, unlike some who want to say the right thing but if you question yourself what do YOU actually do for the good of others? Yes you may be Mother Teresa but my guess is... you aren't 😉 It is now fixed... 
    • I think there is possibly a “broken windows syndrome” to these kind of boards: you know the idea that a broken window left untouched will give the impression that nobody cares, so encourages more vandalism? If boards are not maintained and the notices are way out of date it gives off that vibe. North Cross Road is a Southwark council licensed market, so does it not have a council employee in charge of it? Someone who arranges pitches and payments etc. If so, surely they would be the person to take responsibility? It only needs somebody to keep it clean and charge the posters regularly. Perhaps this can be suggested to the Goose Green councillors; it’s not my ward.
    • Exactly. I complained about them being broken for around 2 YEARS and they were repaired autumn (?) last year but only today when I emailed the councillor did he say he had "just received keys". I have no objection to a mix of community groups etc using the board but surely it should be open to all? Including local businesses, many of whom rely on word of mouth or boards like this - they don't often make much profit so it's great to support local business owners. It's not really my own interest as I am not a business owner... I am just reflecting what I would like to see - that I admit - as per my original post. p.s. the noticeboards I am talking about are empty - not used by anyone as the councillor has the key! Watch my words. They will be updated yearly if that and the info will go out of date. Last time the Northcross Rd one ended up with local councillor contact details, community centre contacts (useful I agree) and random flyers. Someone broke the glass and that was it for several years until I constantly emailed and James Barber - wonderful former councillor for the area - proactively supported, and we now have it fixed and a new one near ED station...
    • Voluntary organisations are probably not making use of the boards any more because of the state they are in. To the best of my knowledge a small number of people had keys originally, but I have no idea who has them now. I imagine it is going to take a fair amount of time to get all this properly up and running again, and then properly maintained.
