Leicester Mum’s Home Turned Construction Zone | Leicester News

A Leicester mum is living through a nightmare as her family home turns into a chaotic construction site after 15 weeks of botched council repairs — ripped floors, bare walls, mold, and her daughter’s toys buried under rubble. She’s slept in her parents’ room for months while her own is packed with furniture, all because of a rotting kitchen and damp that started back in October. Over 30 workers have come and gone without finishing the job, leaving her without heating and flooring still missing. The stress has worsened her mental health, her daughter doesn’t understand why repairs take so long, and she’s even suffered an injury from a leaky kitchen floor. Workers installed shelves on top of broken ones — and the council won’t replace her 20-year-old kitchen, despite admitting they’ve handled things poorly. They offered just $150 in apology — which she rejected — while promising to finish soon and investigate the damp’s cause.
