Pregnant garda devastated as majority of dream house to be demolished after paying €40k on construction work

A pregnant garda has been left devastated after being told the majority of her dream house will need to be demolished after having already paid out over €40,000 on construction work.

Mum-to-be Janice Doyle, from Drogheda, took out a €50,000 credit union loan to pay for the renovations but an engineer who inspected the property said she'll need at least another €50,000 to put things right.

The 36-year-old initially purchased the bungalow near the town centre in August 2021 and said she knew some work had to be done to it.
