Furious Stapleford man slams E.ON over 'appalling' job leaves him having to fix home himself

A furious Stapleford man has slammed E.ON after an 'appalling' job on his home left him having to fix it himself. Richard Dodsley applied for a grant with the utilities company to have the home painted, guttering fixed and make improvements to his kitchen and bathroom.

But the 34-year-old was unimpressed by the job, claiming a Wi-Fi cable had been ripped out with nails, screws and debris scattered across his garden. Mr Dodsley, who lives in Moorbridge Lane, said that he refused to sign the job off due to the 'unfinished' work, instead choosing to finish some of the jobs himself despite a hand injury that has left him currently unable to work in his job at Iceland.

He also said that the paint job that was carried out was not done in the colour that he asked for. Mr Dodsley said: "It started when we applied for a grant for the insulation to be done on the exterior of the house. They went ahead and put the scaffolding up but then came and took it all down and said they ran out of funding.
