Mum 'spent week crying' over 'wonky conservatory' and 'bombsite' garden

A single mum claims she has been left with an unfinished, 'wonky' conservatory after a builder's work left her garden looking like a 'bombsite'. Rebecca Jordan, a care worker, says the whole experience left her tearful, having spent nights crying about her garden that set her back £3,500 instead of the £2,000 that was initially agreed.

Neighbours are also allegedly unhappy with the work, as Rebecca says they have complained about building materials being left in Paddock Lane, Oakenshaw. The unhappy mum says she has reported the builder to Worcestershire Trading Standards (WTS) who have since informed her that they are unable to act as it does not fall under their jurisdiction.

As reported by BirminghamLive, WTS said Rebecca would have to take the builder to civil court to get her money back. The builder - who we are not naming for legal reasons - said he had offered to remedy any issues, including removing any leftover materials.
