Dear Residents,
We have had a recent spate of rogue trader reports targeting the elderly. They will report a visible fault on the property and commence work with the cost rapidly escalating.
If such trade persons come to your door do not entertain any work being completed by them. Obtain any details it is safe to do so such as company name on leaflets or on the van try and get the vehicle details and report to the Police on 101 or 999 if they refuse to leave.
Only use tradespersons you have called. Use the below link for Trading Standards Checked safe traders if using a trades person you do not know.
