Looks like I should have searched the www for info on these guys.
I had them build me a Conservatory in August 2012 - I have to say I had no complaints on the build so I also paid the full amount on completion - still waiting for my warranty certificate and now have a leak which Mr Hames promised to repair within 5 days (5 weeks ago) now not getting email / phone or text replies.

Complained to Citizens Advice and as per their instructions I sent recorded delivery complaint to their advertised address in Swanage - Royal Mail tell me no one is collecting the letter from Post Office in Swanage.

Anyone in this forum willing to take the matter up by using The Echo !!!!!!

Luvdorset, welcome to the forum.

Why don't you get in touch with the authors of the two posts immediately preceding yours?

What's this Echo you are talking about?

I have sent a message direct to JD357 and hoping for a response.
The Echo is a local Daily newspaper covering South East Dorset and East Hampshire. I am sure they would be interested in naming and shaming a local rogue trader if enough victims of Mr Greg Hames and his affiliated Companies could identfy their poor practices. At least it would be something proactive as opposed to letting this guy and Conservatories Bournemouth continue trading with apparent impunity.
Your thoughts........

Hi
It looks like Greg Hames and his best mate and partner have raised their ugly heads again and this time under the name of "Nuglas Conservatories" operating in the West Sussex and Surrey area.

I ordered a conservatory off him in July and before I started I asked if I could see one he had built and without any questions he agreed and took me to East Grinstead area to see a similar conservatory as I had ordered. it was just what I wanted and the price was right, the funny thing was that we entered the Conservatory via the back gate and never met the Owners who only appeared in the bedroom window as we left, at the time I didnt think anything of it but subsequently have thought it strange and was it a set up.

I paid my £3.0K deposit and true to his work the foundation and brick walls were erected the following week albeit strange that the bricklayers came from Ipswich to Crawley around 180 miles. A few days later Greg came round to take final measurements and asked for the second payment of £4.0K in order to purchase the windows, which should have been ready in one week. I continually messaged / called and emailed him in vain. Two week later he told me that they needed to make a steel frame to support the bi-fold doors and that would take a week. I again contacted him at the end of the week but as usual no reply, eventually I did get a message from him saying he was in hospital with burst appendicitis and that took three week.

I kept calling and messaging to see when he was going to start but again no reply but eventually he did message to say that Steve had forgotten to collect the steel frame and he would personally see to it the following Monday two days after he came out of Hospital. On the Monday he called to say that there was aproblem with the steel frame and that he was going to the factory in Worthing to sort it out and it would be a week before it would be ready. Again he failed to let me know when he would be startinq until 12 October 2014 when he said he would be starting on the 27th. On the 25 I emailed him to ask what time he would be starting and the following day 26 October 2014 he emailed to say the Nuglas Conservatories had seized trading the previous Thursday and in the hands of the receivers.

I am now £7.0K short and only a three foot brick wall to show for it.

The funny thing is that I called his Company on 0800 0445414 this morning (27 October) and was surprised that they knew nothing about the company going into liquidation and as far as they were concerned all was well.

My next stop is The Citizens Advice Bureau and possibly the small claims court. Like everyone else I would love to see this guy on Cowboy Builders or preferably in jail.
