We are currently buying a flat in Sydenham but the home buyer's survey has come back recommending that we get someone to take a more thorough look at the loft as the vendor had sheeting up, concealing the timbers and they might need remedial work. I am hoping 'might' is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence.


I have tried contacting various roofing people recommended on the forum - including Russel Perring - but not had a single reply as yet to my messages (except from Norwood Roofing who are too busy) and was wondering if anyone had any recent recommendations for people prepared to come and quote for work?


It also suddenly occurred to me that perhaps roofing people aren't the people we need to assess internal loft and ventilation and that I perhaps should be trying someone else? There are some small roofing issues (flashing and gutters) I was hoping to get them to quote for at the same time.

Norwood Roofing Specialists are excellent. I called David just before Christmas because our roof was leaking. Within 1 day he had arranged for scaffolding to be put up, and within 2 days the previous supposedly waterproof paint was removed and an underfelt and charcoal cap-sheet torched down using gas burners.

They were quick, efficient and highly professional and the price was fair. A day later it was bucketing down and not a drop of water came through. I would highly recommend Norwood Roofing specialists.

      Decision 2 April - Proposed Development - The Sidings, Railway Rise, SE22

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      The private sector is not going to build a significant amount of social housing. Everyone is very keen for *everyone else* to subsidise construction of social housing. I take it none of the objectors to this scheme was suggesting putting up council tax so Southwark could build more social housing...? Social housing isn't going to appear in serious numbers if the state doesn't borrow money and build it.

      Tesla at Belair House

      They must be really desperate to collab with Tesla. Honestly, it's not even the worst thing they've done. I've noticed these sex events happening in the last few months at a place that's supposed to be a restaurant and venue. I was planning my wedding there and was appalled by the setup for those events. When I discovered what was going on, I was disgusted by how they were using the same rooms as 'playrooms' where families are supposed to eat. The hygiene and safety concerns are just unacceptable. We really need to come together as a community to put a stop to this! They're destroying a sacred, Grade II listed building, and it's just not right. The owners need to be held accountable for their actions. It's time for us to stand up and protect our heritage and ensure that these spaces are used appropriately, especially when they should be serving families and the community.   sex events vid.mp4 sex events videe.mp4 Literally promoting it on their Instagram! Only just taken down after scrutiny.

      Anyone experiencing even greater issues securing a GP appointment with Tessa Jowell GP practice?

      By trinidad · Posted

      yes, which properly explains why they responded to me on this occassion, as i included the CQC in my response. I have spoken to the Health Ombudsman, and they feel the regulator is more suited to the issues I have raise for more than a year now. welcome aboard. its great to have you on the thread. so sorry you are also experiencing issues. has this been addressed as yet?

      Tbh most Tesla owners are people who are concerned about the environment and have purchased accordingly- but mr nut job has soured their purchasing- so I actually sympathise with them being associated with such an awful man. But to actively promote the company given the knowledge we now know about him makes utterly unacceptable.
