Fire Devastates Vets. Family Home!

Donation protected

“A fire devastated Carolyn Jolley’s family home in Columbus Indiana nearly 2.5 years ago, but the pain didn't end there.
You won't find any cooking or much of anything at all going on inside Carolyn Jolley's home. By the time CBS4 Problem Solvers met the 72-year-old there last November, the days were starting to wear on her.
Jolley's story started in July of 2016, when an accidental grease fire set her home of 30 years ablaze. She and her family members all got out okay, but the house was badly damaged.
Jolley filed with her insurance company and hired Global Restoration, also known as Global Builders Restoration, to rebuild the home. According to an invoice, filed in December of 2016, the project would cost nearly $200,000.
"The money that the insurance company paid me, I paid them," Jolley said.
Cashier's checks show Jolley handed over more than $170,000 to the company. Yet, a year after she signed the first check, she showed CBS4 Problem Solvers her house, which was not close to being finished.
On 10-31-2018 Global Builders Restoration filed bankruptcy and Carolyn will not get any money back from the company that was paid nor will her house be finished. “ CBS 4
