Men are so impatient at times
A builder took a sledghammer to a customer's porch and conservatory after she failed to pay.
Nigel Gray was owed £22,000 for the work but reached the end of his tether after a string of excuses and missed deadlines for payment.
So he took an 18lb sledgehammer to the red-brick porch, complete with its red-tiled roof, in Shoreham, West Sussex.
He also removed the large back garden conservatory, window pane by window pane, and then went back for the French doors.
Father-of-four Mr Gray said: "I'm absolutely gutted to have had to have done this because it was such fantastic handiwork but I could not just let this go.
"We just kept on getting a string of excuses and bounced cheques. One time I was told her husband had died, but when I spoke to her son he knew nothing about any death.
"It was getting ridiculous and after a number of cheques had bounced and after being given the run around for so long, we decided we had to take drastic action."
