Sunday Post prize crossword:

5d Being constructed badly (13)
J-C-Y-U-L-I-G

18d Guard duty (6-2)
-E-T-Y-O

I think the latter must be SENTRY TO but this doesn't seem to sound right.
As for the first, I can only presume this is some sort of colloquial phrase, involving BUILDING but it fails to ring any bells whatsoever!
Any help gratefully received!

If something is Jerry built it is poorly constructed so 5d Being constructed badly (13)
J-C-Y-U-L-I-G is actually JERRY BUILDING
