You could also make life hard for the builders by complaining to the planning department that they are leaving debris on the road. This probably won't get you any money, but some builders will chuck you a few quid to keep the local authority happy.
It was a public road, but I like your idea of going after a director - will try that if I get fixed at the stealer.

Never used a tin before.....do you reckon this would do the job then?

Or actually place a sheet of fibre glass over it?

£30, not too bad....how much did they charge for fitting?

Cheers.
