O'BRIEN Building Services HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Recommended Posts

We are expat Aussies and bought a lovely old - but very dilapidated - Georgian house in Camberwell two and a half years ago. Since then, we have worked in stages, slowly bringing the place back to life, starting from a dark and dingy basement (now a light and airy one bedroom flat) right up to the fourth floor Victorian manse (now with revitalised bathroom and two bedrooms and the three floors in between, from electrics and wooden floors to painting and decorating the stairs. In all this time, we have worked with just one builder, Paul O'Brien, who has been in the local building business for four decades. Paul works with his son, Charlie, and together they provide all building services, from carpentry and specialist restoration of laven plaster to painting and decorating. They work closely with trade colleagues when electrics or specialist plumbing are needed. For these two men, nothing is too difficult, no problem insurmountable. They work creatively, honestly, punctually and are meticulous cleaning up during works. Most importantly, every time we have embarked on another round of works, their bills have been fair and always on budget. We are still working on our lovely old house - and they are still with us when we need them, step by step, bit by bit. We cannot recommend their work highly enough and would like to thank them publicly too for their work. Paul O'Brien 07836597890

I have a folder full of before and after shots of our house and would happily upload them or provide them as references.

    • Local councillors,  over the many years that the boards have been installed, have rarely updated them. Details of councillors surgeries were posted by party supporters.    
    • If you speak to the reception you should be able to get a free gym induction as part of your membership. Not enough people actually get guidence on how to use the equipment properly and therefore either don't get the best out of it or injure themselves. After the refurb I booked an induction so I learnt how to adjust the new equipment because despite attending there for about 10years I was used to the old machines and equipment and at my age (64) I really did'nt want to faff around not knowing how adjust things correctly. As regards advance booking classes I know for sure you used to be able to book a class 10days in advance but not sure about 2 weeks. Good luck in the gym!
    • Wtf. The word in Greek is the “n” word for Black women. Why would someone open a business under this name? People should boycott instead of commenting on food. 
    • Good on you for doing something rather than some who would prefer to complain about what others are doing.  Enjoyed the read and look forward to seeing more of the meals from the area.   There's are some great substack newsletters out there for local news and exploration. Love to see it.
