I have had dealings with James McGinnity and the man is nothing more than a fraudster. Please do not give this man any money for any work. He has ripped me off along with many other people. I paid in cash as this was his preferred payment method (I now know why, its not traceable!) I have reported him to the HMRC as im sure the man doesn't declare his income. I cannot believe that people are still employing this man to do work for them as he does not have a clue. He is no builder!! I've been left with a half finished house and a massive bill to rectify his mess.

 

He is a liar and should never be believed as he does not live with his Mother and Father. He lives with his girlfriend Emma Cherry and has plenty of money. 

 

PLEASE PLEaSE PLEASE NEVER ALLOW THIS CRIMINAL IN YOUR HOME!

I will be taking James and Paul to court.


They have conned me out of a lot of money and never finished my work.


If anybody can provide me with court case references and issues people have had I would like to bring them to the attention of the judge so this does not happen again.

I've had 169 pictures sent to me of the work that has been completed at the property of someone. I could get these too you. He is on here but hasn't commented on this thread. It's awful. I could cry for him. He has been taken for 56k and has been left with a brick shell. When is a criminal case going to happen for James. He needs to be sent to prison.

Hi All,


If you've been ripped off please log it with Action Fraud - even if it was years ago. If they have a number of reports about the same person/people it will flag up and can then be investigated by the police.


Its only takea 2 minutes and you'll be helping other people avoid being ripped off too.


The website is : https://www.actionfraud.police.uk/

James and Paul McGinnity are now trading as DBM Construction doing work around Kidderminster and other areas. They have managed to get themselves approved by the Federation of Master Builders under their new name! https://www.fmb.org.uk/builder/dbm-construction.html Despite their many, many bankruptcies and criminal convictions for fraud amongst other things. Clearly the FMB accreditation is absolutely worthless these days!

Now his bankruptcy has ended James McGinnity, and his father Paul McGinnity, have set up a Limited Company called Design Build Maintain Limited seemingly to trade as DBM Construction still. The registration is here: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/15597589

    • Awful. A Google search came up with this, but will he check his office email over Christmas? Maybe worth also contacting local councillor? 'To contact Southern Housing's CEO, Paul Hackett, you can try his direct email, [email protected], or use the general contact email [email protected], as well as calling their main number, 0300 303 1066, for general inquiries or to be directed to the executive level.' Also, from the website: https://www.southernhousing.org.uk/latest-news/2025/contacting-us-over-the-festive-period   'Contacting us about an emergency? If you have an emergency outside of the above times over the festive period, such as severe flooding, an uncontainable leak, gas leak, complete electrical failure or lift breakdown, please call us on 0300 303 1066' I hope it is sorted out soon.
    • Dawson Heights again  2 lifts out of order at ladlands block Christmas Eve so of course the 🛗 will not be repaired tomorrow Christmas Day or Boxing Day or when how do elderly or mothers with children and prams and food and presents get to the floors and with the 10 minutes you get to drop off  to park and not get a Pcn fine and delivery food to relatives who can’t leave their house unbelievable Southern housing does any know email address of Coe of southern housing 
    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
