If any of this sounds familiar, you are in the right place.

Your builder has stopped turning up regularly. Work has slowed to almost nothing and you are not getting straight answers about why. You have been paying in stages but when you look at what has actually been done, the money you have paid is far ahead of the work on site.


The quality of what has been built is not what you were promised. You can see problems but you are not sure how serious they are or what your options are. Your builder has walked off site completely. They may have gone quiet, stopped answering calls, or told you the job is finished when it clearly is not.


The relationship has broken down. Every conversation ends in an argument and you no longer trust anything you are being told. You had no proper contract in place, or the contract you signed does not protect you the way you thought it did.


If you are reading this and recognising your situation, you need someone experienced in your corner. Today, not next week.

You are not the first person this has happened to. And it can be resolved.

Most homeowners in a building crisis feel two things simultaneously. Panic about the situation they are in. And embarrassment that they let it get this far. You should feel neither.


The builders and scenarios that create these situations are often sophisticated. They have done this before. And the absence of proper legal protection, the upfront payment, the optimistic references — these are traps that catch experienced, intelligent people every day.


What matters now is not how it happened. What matters is dealing with it quickly and correctly. That is what I do.

When a project is in crisis, I act quickly.

I will rearrange other commitments to deal with a genuine emergency, because I understand what is at stake for you and your family.

1

Step 01 — We talk

The moment you get in touch I will make time to speak with you, understand the situation, and give you my honest initial assessment. There is no charge for that first conversation.

2

Step 02 — I assess the full picture

I carry out a thorough assessment covering two immediate priorities. First, the financial position — exactly what you have paid versus what has genuinely been completed and what that work is actually worth. Second, what legal paperwork and contractual protection you have in place and what that means for your options going forward.

3

Step 03 — I make sure you and your property are protected

Before anything else, I establish that the property is safe and that you are meeting all your legal obligations as the homeowner. In a building crisis these things can get overlooked with serious consequences.

4

Step 04 — I engage with the builder

With a clear picture of where things stand, I engage with the builder directly. I assess whether the relationship can be salvaged on the right terms, or whether the cleanest path forward is to bring in someone else to complete the work properly. That decision is always based on what is right for your project, not what is easiest.

5

Step 05 — We recover what can be recovered

Recovering money from a builder who has been overpaid is rarely straightforward, and I will always be honest with you about what is realistic. However, I have a background in law and I use every legitimate measure available — formal legal routes, negotiation, and where appropriate, other forms of pressure that often produce results when standard approaches have failed. I do not give up easily.

6

Step 06 — We get your project finished

The end goal is always the same. A completed build, done properly, with all the right documentation and certification in place. Everything I do from the moment I step in is working towards that outcome.

An honest word about recovering money.

I will always tell you the truth about your financial position. Recovering money that has been overpaid to a builder is genuinely difficult. There is no easy route and I will never suggest otherwise.


What I can tell you is that I pursue every available option on behalf of my clients. My background as a solicitor means I understand the legal landscape thoroughly. And beyond the formal routes, I am not afraid to use every legitimate form of pressure available to bring a builder to the table.


Sometimes that produces results. Sometimes it does not. But my clients always know exactly where they stand, and they never feel alone in dealing with it.

Who I work with

My clients range from first-time renovators who have never managed a building project before, to experienced homeowners taking on something larger or more complex than anything they have handled previously, to landlords and property investors managing significant works. What they share is that they want someone genuinely experienced in their corner — someone who has seen what goes wrong and knows how to prevent it. Not a builder telling them everything is fine. Someone independent, working solely in their interest.


I work across a wide range of project types and sizes, from major single-room renovations and loft conversions through to full house refurbishments, new extensions and new builds. We provide similar services to our commercial clients.

Do not wait. Every day matters in a building crisis.

The longer a troubled project sits unresolved, the more complicated and expensive it becomes to fix. If your build has gone wrong, contact me today. I will respond quickly and tell you honestly what I think and what your options are.
