He did not pay the mason but he went on vacation: he broke down his house

The house in question is located in a wooded area of ​​Leicester called Stoneygate and was acquired for around £ 540,000 (approximately US $ 761,805) in 2020. The contractor began work in February of this year.

“We wanted to do a two-story extension, a new roof, the electrical connection and everything to be sustainable,” said the injured customer. Her dream of having a home for her family of six collapsed during her vacation, which is still ongoing.

According to the man, who did not want to be named, refused to pay the contractor £ 3,500. Instead of went on vacation about 300 kilometers from the city and left his house full of scaffolding in the hands of the workers.

The amount owed is a trifle next to the price of real estate, but there seems to be a question of principle. After refusing to pay, the man learned that the scaffolding company had removed the structures and his house was left as if bombs had again been dropped in the UK.

But someone from a house next door to the injured client’s assured local media that “people noticed that the masons started removing things (from the property) and demolishing what they had built“.

“The neighbors are very unhappy with the appearance of the house and that they have ruined the sidewalkthe source added.

The owner of the house, still on vacation outside the UK, told the LeicestershireLive He will contact Leicester authorities about the asphalt in front of his ruined house.

The man even tried to raise the dispute with the police but They told him that they do not accept such complaints because it is a dispute and not a crime..
