A "shoddy” builder who left a couple with three quarters of a roof when he fled and refused to finish the job has avoided jail time.
The couple, named as Mr and Mrs Davies, bought the home in Wolverhampton knowing it would need work and employed Christopher Wood of Summit Roofing Solutions Ltd.
A court hearing heard how Wood had claimed to be a "professional, competent and experienced" roofer, although a chartered surveyor later found his work to be incompetent.
