Well, here’s something that you don’t hear too often – a builder taking revenge on a rogue customer!

After waiting for four months to receive payment for a porch and conservatory, Nigel Gray and his team took the law into their own hands, by knocking down their own handiwork with sledgehammers.

Nigel, 44, who was owed £15,000 by Mrs Dovey of West Sussex, said: “I just reached the end of my tether and thought why should they enjoy the fruits of my hard work – laughing at me while I don’t get paid. I felt like I had been mugged.”

As a result of his experiences, Gray is looking to launch a website to help other builders get their cash back from dodgy customers.
