Loads of chimney sweeps called Pearce in south London – I think we had S Pearce last time and he was great, but have used a different Pearce in the past. I think they are related and they go back generations, like about 300 years!

Good luck with the roof

You could try these guys for sash windows, not sure if they do refurbs or just fittings though

These guys did some new ones for me - were very reasonable and they look lovely. Don't know about emergency repair though - I think they have to make them from scratch.

Hi all - the sun is out, the small outdoor space desperately needs sorting:

Any recommendations for garden fixers: paving, fencing, turfing - basically turning an outdoor yard / patio into a nice space?

thanks!

You could try Tony Lee on 07961453395. He's done my garden and a few on Urban I think. Really nice chap (does like to chat!). He is sometimes away, so if he doesn't return your call first time, do give him another go.

I used Hamilton Heating recently - based on Effra Road. Not cheap (85+VAT per hr) but I just wanted the job done urgently and they were very efficient. They aim to get out that day or next.

+1 for these guys. Really quick (next morning) and very pleasant and efficient.

We called Michael after seeing this post and he has just finished painting our living room. We are really happy with the result. Michael and Seema (!?) did a great job esp. the straight lines between quite dark walls and light coloured skirtings etc. Very tidy and professional and a very competitive rate. Trustworthy and reliable. I would highly recommend them.
 
Can anybody recommend a local independent building surveyor? Looking for somebody who can do a full structural survey of a terraced property - all 3 flats.
Cheers
 
I'm having trouble getting grass to grow in my back garden and am considering artificial grass. Has anyone had it done? Understand the costs and recommend anyone?
