You know John, just had a gander and the website promotes what looks like a very nice hotel with the shots on the website. Obviously they make it look good when in practice it is a totally different story. This remind me of a similar situation we had, great looking hotel on the website but once you are there not the same story, in our case it was not dirty I am glad to say but was very drab, well overdue any decorating and very very awkward being on the slope that it was ( good job Lisa was not with us on that trip ). Well I am glad to say that that particular hotel that was in Truro is now flattened and about to be a block of retirement flats- although that steep slope is still there so question the choice of location for retirement appartments.

            I do hope you get some positive feedback John.

Local Builder - review for Oxford Construction Company.com

Anybody considering using a builder (well thats what he calls himself) throughout Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire  trading as Oxford Construction Company.com and operated by David 'Badger' Nelms should think long and hard! His Limited Company was liquidated September 2013, but he still claims to be a Director on his facebook account.

A friend of mine had him build a kitchen and garage. They left the job in such a mess that SODC Building Control have been notified, along with Trading Standards and a Court case is looming.

A few of the defects include lack of insulation in the cavity walls, minimal sand on the garage floor screed and badly fitting double glazed doors. He was forever adding 'extras' that he claimed were not in the Contract, always wanted cash and regularly failed to turn up.

He has no staff, employs sub-contractors on an ad hoc basis and then refuses to pay them claiming faulty, or bad work. An electrician contracted by Nelms went to my friends house, walked into the garage, pulled the plug in the consumer unit and then refused to turn the electricity back on unless he was paid his £500 (by the owner of the property). He demanded payment from my friend despite being contracted by David 'Badger' Nelms who previously refused to pay him. My friend was frightened, alone and paid the electrician who reinstated the supply. It was reported to Thames Valley Police who said "it's a civil matter" which I think is very wrong advice! 

He claimed to be Gas Safe and NICEIC certified, but they have caught up with him for misuse of their logos and they have finally been removed from his website. There are other comments that I could make including what I believe to be an exaggerated insurance claim, but that is ongoing so I will leave that for now.

For the last 5 years he has managed to take his family to Florida each year, something that the average family can afford maybe once in a lifetime!

Be warned, give this so-called builder a very wide berth.

Regarding another matter, my wife is receiving telephone calls (number witheld of course) saying "Your husband is messing about on Horspath Caravan Park. Just thought I'd let you know because I had it done to me a couple of years ago". Fortunately my wife is sufficiently adult and sensible enough not be concerned about this pathetic individual, whoever it might be, but rest assured I am taking steps to find you.
