It’s concerning my half of the canopy that he wanted payment for and I refused payment and explained that when the issues are put right with it then I’ll pay. He obviously didn’t think anything was wrong with the canopy due to him issuing his claim for money through the courts. He has now decided not to continue with his money claim.
It’s nothing to do with me suing him because it’s my daughters home that he’s destroyed and is in the hands of solicitors who are in the process of sorting the mess out.

So you've got no recourse legally other than I assume sueing him?

The builder had until the 13th February to pay the £80 to the courts in order for him to carry on the claim which is set for 5th March.
I get his evidence through on the 12th of February that he intends to use in the courts. I also submitted my evidence back to him along with a copy to the courts that I also intend to use in the courts and he received this yesterday and so did the courts.
I had until 2 weeks before the trial date of the 5th March to send in my evidence so it had to be submitted by tomorrow ‘20th February’.
I receive a letter through from the courts this morning stating that the claimant has failed to pay the small claims hearing fee of £80 and the claim is struck out.
How has/is this allowed to have happened as it’s disgusting.
I suppose at the very least he got to read my evidence and now realises just what a billy bullsh1tter he’s been made out to be.

New contractors just left along with a chap whose the chartered surveyor and they are in disbelief at what they have actually seen in the house.
Totally mesmerised by the 5h1t show outside in the yard too.
Chartered surveyor said he has seen nothing like it and the lad whose building company it is who are doing the work walked around just totally gobsmacked and bewildered by it all but thankfully not in awe.

The top half of the soil pipe is now hanging away from the wall because storm Dennis has blown out the rawl plugs.
New contractors taking a look at it now because if the couple other rawl plugs come out it’ll be over the neighbours.
Wow, just wow.

Been issued the claim but no evidence enclosed to what he’s stating.
I mean, if you’re claiming that I was abusive towards him and the contractors involved in the building works then there should be evidence stating as such from the contractors. Instead all I got was photos of the canopy full on.
Quite what everything /anything he’s stated has got to do with it I just don’t know.....
Still, bring it on.
Edit - By the way, I’ve abused nobody.

Feel your pain mate.
Fortunately my daughter has court of protection so the solicitors who look after her finances have a duty of care to chase back as much monies as they possibly can because they themselves are answerable to TCOP.
When all is done and dusted legally I’ll be doing my utmost and all above board to expose them for what they are.
They can run, change their building company name but they can’t hide.

Glad your starting to get there T, stick to your guns
I've never had much trade work carried out but moved to a house last may and since then I've been left very disappointed, not a single tradesman hasn't got it wrong or their suppliers, one really got on my nerves, in fact I had to stop dealing with them (poor Mrs) fuming doesn't sum it up
Had our living room/lounge archway knocked out rooms replastered, ceiling joint split between boards, crack opening and closing depending if fire was on or room was cold (were talking several mm with plaster chipping out). Also had a new log fire put in.
Got them back, it's just a bit of movement. it's to be expected, back again, it's your fire mate, it's too hot, back third time, it must be movement of the joists from the room above (we hadn't been using that room) back 4th time filled it with flexi...opened up again. 3 times I asked them if they'd taped the joint, yes mate, got another plasterer in, I'd say it's not taped.
Got them back a 5th time on the proviso they take it back and check if it's taped, you guessed it, not taped, so they taped it up and flexied it again, no probs for 3 months now so sorted but they told me to finish to smooth

The builder got until the 13th Feb to decide if he would still like to go ahead with his money claim he made against me or he’ll be accountable for my expenses occurred.
I’m just praying and hoping that the builder continues his claim against me and doesn’t 5h1t out having to face that shower of 5h1t of evidence in relation to that awful canopy he built.
If he does 5h1t out I’ll be the first to let him know ‘or his mummy’ how disappointed I am that he didn’t have the ba115 to carry it out.

A few quid short of £950. Well, I’m hoping I won’t be made to pay it by the courts.
Solicitors fees cost me zero ‘or has it mr builder?’ and as for correspondence in gathering my email evidence together over that total 5h1te of a supposed canopy around 48 hours in total.
Edit - He wanted his payment, I refused him stating ‘by e-mail through my solicitor’ that if he put the issues right with it then I’d pay him. He didn’t agree to that obviously because he then issued me a claim for money through the courts. lo and behold the next morning he got the director of his company ‘it was his mummy actually’ to telephone me asking if both himself and his father could call up to the property and put the issues right with it. I told her that they couldn’t and when she asked why not I told her that I’d been issued a money claim for it against me, I responded to that claim and now you’d have to carry on going through the proper channels. I also ticked the box in my response on the claim form for no mediation with him and explained my reasons for doing so.
They must have been desperate to put it right because this telephone call was on a Saturday and wanted to call Tuesday. No doubt it would have being the Monday but it was a bank holiday.
I also got the impression that they knew they’d be stuffed after my response to their claim because I’ve evidence to suggest anything but as to what they’re claiming as evidence.
It’s disgusting that they’re still trading because they have not got a clue.
