Bad builder forum

catford

Is there a site or forum anywhere to expose and discuss poor builders and warn others off ?;)
I am in the process of having a loft conversion done and it's a bl**dy nightmare:eek:.
I would love to find out the truth about my builders reputation...not their version of it.:rolleyes:

Try www.snagging.org. The forum is quite useful as there are tons of complaints about builders etc

Try the BADLY RATED TRADESMEN website, or CAN YOU TRUST THEM


Decent search also

So much for the badly rated tradesmen website:mad: They took my money in december for a years subscription and now when I want to check a builder all I get is "bad request-invalid host name"---what a rip off
Have they gone bust :eek: anyone know?

Your in the right place to name n shame cowboys, scammers and conmen, feel free to report what they have or haven't done, who they claim to be and where they claim to be based.

There is nothing worse than exposure and warnings on MSE about any scam.

Strange - your solicitor did not pick up on any of this from the documentation?

Why would a builder build a new brick skin around a 20 yr old house? It would have very thick walls.

The solicitor did not pick it up, but that is not the worst thing that happened, the bulder used green oak timbers that have twisted whilst drying and caused no end of damage - he did not tell us or the the solicitors that either

I would name & shame your surveyor as well

Can I warn other users about a bad builder here?
