Looking for an electrician to fix some ceiling lights in the Loughborough Junction area.
Mrs M, I've dropped you a pm should you have a contact.
Many thanks

Thanks Minnie

Paul the locksmith turned up at 9sharp, job done, very professional

You could have asked him to give you a haircut as well. He used to work for Toni and Guy in Kings Road

Oh, and he trained to be a fireman but didn't get in

Cleaner in Brixton Hill

Can anyone recommend a cleaner in the Brixton Hill/New Park Road area? Work's been ridiculously busy recently and my flat is becoming a health hazard! I'm looking for a regular cleaner but if anyone knows someone who could come in and do a one-off blitz that would be good too. Help!

He didn't seem a very Toni and Guy type of guy to me...

The last thing I would have picked him to be was an ex hairdresser.

Back on subject can anyone recommend a cleaner in Loughborough Junction, mine has become beyond unreliable. 3 - 4 hours a week.

I can recommend a very good cleaner if anyone is interested. There is no language barrier and she is very reliable. P.m for her details.

Floor tiling

I'm after someone to retile the floor of my kitchen, bathroom and hall. As it's a one bed flat it's not a huge job but I reckon it's probably a day or two's work (to my untrained eye).

Anyone have any numbers for people I could phone for a quote?

check your PMs!

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Apologies for not answering my PMs on this subject...online for an average of an hour every fortnight at the moment...Real life too busy for a virtual one...probably best to put requests on the appropriate forum for the forseeable future.....

 

[binrak]

hi. any recommendations for builders etc? we need the outside of our house updated and plastered and painted. Anyone used anyone recently who they can recommend? Equally interested in any local companies who you wouldnt recommend to save me hell of awful builders etc

If anyone can offer advice, I'm looking for a chippy who can replace my balsa wood front door with one of those tough looking security doors with 5 lever locks (and a portcullis, moat and draw bridge if possible).

For anyone moving..

If you're doing the full removal jobbie, more than a man & van, I can hartily recommend Clapham Removals:

http://www.claphamremovals.com/index.php?page=home

Turn up on time, lovely, helpful, laid-back 'can-do' guys, & myself & partner both paid less than we thought we would. They don't just cover Clapham - they moved Antelope from Crystal Palace to Brockley.

Anybody know any decent tilers....thinking of getting the bathroom tiled so a reliable tiler would be great.

Thanks

Edited to add:

I also need a decent Plasterer too.

Anyone know someone who can fix garden fences? i live in central Brixton. Basically i am looking for a handyperson for a few, not so big jobs.

I've just used a carpenter/joiner to fit a new front door. Very friendly, checked exactly what I wanted in advance, gave a decent price up front and made sure I didn't spend more than I needed to on the right locks etc. Recommended:
