There is a lady in the Reliance Arcade bit of the market who is really good and quick. About half way down the arcade.
Otherwise the drycleaners on Atlantic Road are good, bit more expensive..

For recommendations in the area it might also be worth taking a look at Streetbank.com.
The website allows you to see all the things that people in the immediate area (within 1000 yards of your home) are willing to lend, give away - or skills they are willing to share. Recommendations and requests can also be posted on the site - anything from a good window cleaner to a request for help with changing a bicycle tyre.
It's a community project designed to bring neighbourhoods together and make the world a bit nicer - a bit of a cross between a social networking and freecycle site. It's taking off in East Dulwich and Herne Hill and the more people who get on board, the better it'll be!

Ha! Is PBoi still banned?!
Anyway- warm recommendations for his guy Marcin and his team- he's just done my sister's kitchen- bricking up doorways, demolishing walls, new windows, plumbing, paster work, floors- all great and no complications.
The neighbours booked him up as well after seeing his work.

On a bit of break...
For basic plumbing I have just secured the services of the fabulous Kieran...PM me if you want his number...he's still learning but did a tricky job Chez Magpie with no problems and wanted a ridiculously small amount of dosh in return.
Washing machine is making a dreadful sound on spin, but doesn't sound like the motor's fucked.
It's 7 yrs old & I'd rather use the money to buy a new one if nessasary rather than spunk it on expensive parts & repair labour.
Does anyone know a handy man repair man who could, for say £30, have a quick butchers at it & tell if it's worth repairing or not?

Thanks for this - am going to give Marcin a call. How do you pronounce his name - Mar-SEEN, Mar-CHEEN, MAR-sin... ?

Why not pay for the more complete survey that covers both? Sorry to be flippant but scrimping on a survey is one of the dumbest things you can do.

She is getting the full survey. She intends to renovate and wants professional opinion.
