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

  There were three vans marked “External Cleaning Contractors” (or words to that effect) outside the Grove Tavern this morning, with blokes who seemed to be looking the place over. Anyone know if it’s going to be scrubbed up? Would this be an end of lease requirement, to hand it back without graffiti and fly posting?

  the companies issue a phone click on qr code to give you guide price - however, they seem to work more on an algorithim of what works for them, so after a few books, they suddenly go 'no' until they get one they absolutely want - they buy for pence - so you need a lot of books, then they go through them and subjectively tell you the ones which are not up to scratch, but having bought also from the same company, they do not necessarily send out 'good' stock - you must pack them, they give the labels and then they collect. I think there is room for a more honest competitor, but I am sure it is a difficult business, built on inventory and algorithims rather than buying 'books'. Would be interested in hearing in more detail about the venture.

  ecde, what do you mean by outdoor water? An outside tap? If so, where's it being fed from? Presumably from somewhere within the building; maybe somewhere you don't have control of or access to? Is it meant to be for drinking?
