Building contractor - Lambeth street properties

Recommended Posts

Hi all,


I live in Camberwell SE5 and am currently in a section 20 consultation for Major Works with our freeholder Lambeth Council.


They have given us the opportunity to nominate contractors for the works, which will include roof, external masonry, windows and guttering repairs over around a dozen street properties. The work is currently scheduled for Q1 2021


Lambeth are trialling a new process to try and get better value for leaseholders and the authority, and also to try and give local businesses a chance to bid.


I would really welcome recommendations from any ED construction businesses who could possibly meet the Lambeth criteria - they do need to be big enough to take on the job. This will mean that the business is almost certainly registered on Constructionline (https://www.constructionline.co.uk/) and will have formal systems in place for H&S, training etc. Minimum capital reserve criteria will also apply.


I would love this big chunk of work to go to a local business who will use local sub-contractors and local suppliers to keep the money in our area - thanks in advance for any suggestions you might have.


Dan

    • Not sure what you mean by "involved with firework enjoyment"? I'm all for others enjoying themselves, and I like fireworks, but if they were limited to public displays then people could still enjoy them? Having said that, I see that tickets for the London New Year fireworks start at £20 (Dawson's Heights it is,  then!) The fireworks in Brockwell Park used to be free. I don't know why those don't happen any more?
    • Really interesting discussion here. It's difficult to respect the views of people who support Farage, Trump, Musk etc. Why should we, when their views are deplorable. But then that exact 'deplorable' label, as we know, is counterproductive and drives people to double down / switch off to more progressive views. How do you actually help change minds? We're currently spiralling into dark places culturally and politically imo. The amount of open racism, even amongst front line politicians here and in the US is astounding to me. Feels like we're going backwards. The influence of social media and the tech billionaires / bros, is a powerful and largely malignant one. There was an enlightening (and frightening) bit of journalism by Sky this week about Musk's influence on British politics. He has a strange obsession with the UK and London in particular (as do many on the US right wing): https://news.sky.com/story/the-x-effect-how-elon-musk-is-boosting-the-british-right-13464487
    • Looking for any tickets to the Dulwich Hamlets game against St Albans today!
    • I'm going to Paris with friends, staying in the 3rd arrondissement. I used to go a lot but that was ages ago so wondered if anyone has any 'insider tips'? We are interested in small art galleries, independent shops, good value cafes and restaurants that may not feature in all the many online articles or guides, thanks!
