We had extensive building work done by Andrea Binda over four years ago. We quickly discovered major problems with the electrics and central heating he had installed; both were very dangerous and had to be re-installed. Although this work was disruptive and costly, we comforted ourselves with the thought that his building work, which included a large kitchen extension project, passed muster in the opinion of a structural engineer. Unfortunately, we were kidding ourselves. Today, the builder who came to our rescue after Binda had vandalised our home uncovered some shockingly inept structural work. The job was so badly executed as to be almost deliberately incompetent. Suffice it to say that we will require extensive reinforcement of our kitchen extension. We are facing many weeks of disruption and tens of thousands of pounds of expense; and this more than four years after we initially ejected him from the site. I agree with what has been written about about how charming and superficially plausible Binda is capable of seeming. I disagree strongly regarding his ability to do decent work. All of the people I know who have employed this man have encountered substantial problems. I only hope that they have discovered the true extent of the damage he is capable of. We certainly had not. Please, please do not use this dangerous, wilfully negligent fraudster.
