Brixton tradesmen recommendations: plumbers, electricians, locksmiths, van drivers etc

I can tell you exactly how long it is - it's 2.4m (the removal men were very unimpressed and I still remember the zenie/crispy triumph at getting the bloody thing through the front door) :D

PM me your phone number. My lovely neighbour has sons and grandsons who do that. They may be able to do the floorboards too, I wouldn't be at all surprised.
 
Looking for an electrician to do some work in Camberwell in the next week or 2. Any recommendations?
 
Not sure if right place but recently used this car mechanic - AM Motors at the top of Railton Road (HH end) to fix the clutch on my ford focus.

Chatted to Peter and was expecting a £800 plus bill (new fangled fly wheel/clutch assembly for diesel cars,) came in at £650 and was well chuffed. Peter was a great guy as well - well recommended.

Well here is a big recommendation for Colin of CW Services - plumbing.

After calling him yesterday about our broken Saniflo and blocked bathroom pipes, he came round today to have a look and its all fixed.

Our other plumber had told us the saniflo needed replacing.

He's coming back next week to do a boiler inspection.

What a lovely guy!
My washing machine has broken down and Hotpoint wanted £120 to fix it. Phoned Colin and he couldn't do it but recommended a Stockwell based guy called Yonas who I just spoke to. He has agreed to come and fix it inclusive of spared for £50 and I'm in Camden. I'll post Yonas's number here once he has fixed it OK :) Colin was just incredibly lovely and helpful - thanks Colin, Yonas and Urban

OK, a very sweet, charming, hard working young man called Yonas fixed my machine for the agreed £50 even though it took him ages to drive here from SW London and also took ages to fix.

This was less that half the price quoted by Hotpoint / Indesit.

He only fixes Hotpoint / Indesit machines and works mostly in SW London but he is sometimes able to travel a bit further afield.

On the basis of my experiences today I would 100% recommend both Colin and Yonas. Yonas's number is 07908642184

Thanks to shakespearegirl and urban for the recommendations :)

Any good camera repair places anyone could recommend me please? I purchased another camera to replace the problem one, but I miss it. So, gonna sell the new one to fund a repair. Cheers.
 
Can anyone recommend someone for some simple DIY? Putting up two blinds and four shelves. I can't really get up on ladders to do it and my drill's knackered, but ratedpeople don't have a way of requesting someone to do basic DIY tasks.
