No place like home ...after bulldozing by 'worst builder'

A COUPLE have at last moved into their dream home four years after it was reduced to rubble by “Britain’s worst builder” in a row over money.

The £500,000 property in the leafy Leicester suburb of Stoneygate was demolished by an angry workman back in June 2021.

Owner Jay Kurji said his home was bulldozed while he was away on holiday after he refused to pay the builder an additional £3,500.

He had hired him to carry out renovations - including a two-storey extension and enlarged kitchen diner - to the four-bedroom detached property.

But the fuming builder ripped off the roof, blitzed three walls and left the driveway littered with debris while Mr Kurji was with his family in Wales.
