    Can anyone recommend people to do the following work in SE?

    • repointing brickwork in lime mortar (just patching, I think)
    • replacing a tiny flat roof currently in felt and associated fascia (1sqm)
    • replacing an external RWP which seems to be leaking at a join maybe
    • small fiddly plumbing bits: replacing kitchen mixer tap (relatively simple), replacing shower including going back into the wall some as the feed pipes are well wonky coming out of the wall, associated replastering and sealing (can probably manage some DIY tiling)

    All things that need doing but kind of small and bitty.

    Our freeholder (housing association) used these guys to fix up a load of small bits the previous firm (worryingly cheap) they hired screwed up. Surprisingly, a firm who offered 30% under anyone else on the tender just threw some non-English speaking workers at the jobs and then dissolved the company before dealing with any comeback! Marjon have been really good to deal with and all the work they've done has been to a high standard. Not sure about cost as we weren't paying...
