Building Dispute Resolutions

A specialist in building disputes helping consumers and contractors with building disputes and contract problems.

How can I help you?

Construction and restoration work can lead to disagreements; customers become unhappy, contractors lose patience and before long problems are growing. Of course builders have day to day experience whereas their customers may never have had a house built, renovated or a basement conversion carried out – they soon feel out of their depth and vulnerable, when the builder’s excuses come thick and fast. You need a resolution to your building dispute fast.





This is where I come in. With over 27 years in the industry I can help either or both sides of a dispute with professional assistance to get problems sorted.


An outside construction expert like me, working for you, can bring a fresh mind to the problem especially where workmanship defects, contract disagreements, time and payment arguments or party wall issues are involved. I’ve helped clients get satisfaction without having to resort to expensive legal action or protracted arguments. Unlike a solicitor I will come and inspect the site and see what is really wrong. I can help you with the technical issues that consumers find confusing and I know the Building

When to call? With all disputes the earlier you get help the better – emails and letters sent in haste, at the beginning can prejudice your case later, allowing a contractor or client to ‘get off the hook’ just because you have slipped up right at the beginning when you were not thinking straight. Let me guide you through at this stage for best results.

Regulations, British Standards and contract rights that apply to these cases – builder’s or damp proofing jargon doesn’t faze me….


What my Client’s Say


“I am extremely grateful for all the positive things you have already achieved. I am pretty naive in dealing with people like the builder and find the whole thing very stressing…Please keep up the good work for us”.
