An elderly relative who lives in East London needs someone to fix a loose drainpipe. Am I right in thinking that Age Concern recommend tradesmen who are reliable and have been checked as trustworthy? I know there is Check-a-trade but we once had a workman who wasn't brilliant at the job so wold rather not use them.

Thank you tanith. Very useful and have spent the last few hours phoning around. Have a couple of people going round to give quotes later this week so good result. There is something called the AgeUK London Borough building directory which lists services all over London.
