You should chase down the builder and ask him to do something about it......(dont be too surprised to get the cold shoulder though).

Well the builder did give you a garden with thouse,didnt he??

He gave you a garden full of compacted rubble and shyte and threw over some soil and grass seed to cover up his and other trades peoples dumpings.

You should tell him that you CANNOT plant anything after digging several trial holes around the garden and hitting compacted concrete and shyte.

You want the garden and all the shyte dug and and removed and new top soil layed and leveled.

Do you have or does the builder have homebond at all???



PS-Take some pictures of the trial holes and the holes full of water too.This will make for good evidence.;)

homebond does not cover the garden

Nor, you would think, the rest of the house either, the way they squirm out of responsibility. It's exactly the same in the UK with their 10 year scheme.
