Looking for handyman/decorator


Bobbie

Recommended Posts

I am looking for a handyperson/decorator with experience of water proofing bathrooms to do some work on my one-bedroom flat in East Dulwich as follows:


1. Redoing water proofing on bathroom floor and retiling of bathroom/shower floor areas. Currently the bathroom is wetproofed with fibreglass which works but the floor slopes the wrong way, away from the shower so the floor needs to be sorted so it slopes the right way.

2. Replastering of bathroom ceiling and repainting of ceiling

3. General filling in of plaster cracks and repaint of several areas in flat

4. Other small jobs - Putting up metal splashback in kitchen, put down matting in entrance lobby, rehang a couple of cupboard doors, put in a peg to replace missing peg for cupboard shelf, putting up a couple of kitchen shelves


I'd like to get the work done in late August and am looking for a couple of quotes. If there are any handypersons/decorators who can help please contact me on [email protected].


Thank you.

I would recommend Raju (07931735875), he redecorated my flat and refitted and tiled my bathroom. I'm looking to have him back to do the second one. If it helps in any way, my neighbour saw him working in my flat, and he then did her bathroom. He is reliable, super tidy, full of ideas and you can leave keys with him. If you want to ask me anything, just let me know.

We have refurbished our last three houses, but we have never had a building experience where we were 100% happy with every aspect of the work, until HamiltonWalters Carpentry & Building converted our loft and extended our kitchen for us. Their attention to detail, hard work and the fact that once they started the work, they were there every day until it was finished was really impressive and everyone was so nice too! I would (and already have) advise anyone thinking of converting their loft or doing other building works that there is really only one company they should talk to ?

    • Well that is good news… alternative would have been homeless or private.
    • I was lucky that I received a student grant from 1990-1995 first 3 years for degree and 2 years post graduate bursary. Both were based on my income and I did not have to pay back. Eldest daughter got student loan and after 20 years managed to pay it off, Youngest daughter still paying hers 18 years later. Granddaughter - still paying after 6 years. Grandson decided against FE and secured an apprentenship. I am glad that I am an old codger and not young anymore !

    • It is not only Southwark - our grandson, partner and 7 year old had a one bed council flat for years in Harlow Essex and all the properties offered were in poor condition. They eventually took a property as if they refused another one they would drop to the bottom of the Housing List. It was damp and in need of a level of renovation. Having lived in these conditions for a while they were offered better council accommodation recently, but further away from child's school. They had to pay 2 lots of rent for a few weeks as council had to undertake work in the new premises before they could move in,
