James Hobby was left homeless and with a massive bill when a loft renovation went wrong
A family has been left facing a bill of more than £250,000 after floors collapsed during a loft extension and their builder’s insurer refused to pay out.
James Hobby, a secondary school teacher, saw his adult son injured and his family left homeless when their home in Windsor fell down eight weeks into the £38,000 job. The upper storey disintegrated, injuring five people, two seriously.
