Look out for Rogue Traders in your area -These are dishonest tradespeople who often turn up unannounced. You may want some work doing, but this isn't the way to do it. A rogue trader may leaflet an area before making doorstep calls and often offer roofing, gardening and handyperson jobs. The work may be unnecessary, done to a poor standard and overpriced. It's best to not open the door to anyone you don't recognise. Remember: Obtain three written quotes before choosing a trader. Don’t pay any money upfront, particular in cash. Only pay for work once it has been completed and you are satisfied with the job. Report issues with rogue traders to West Yorkshire Police online, by calling 101. Call or text 999 if they are still on your doorstep. Report issues with companies to West Yorkshire Trading Standards via Citizens Advice online or by calling 0345 404 0506. Consider using a trusted trader scheme or charitable organisation for the work: Not an exhaustive list - other organisations are available that may offer the same services.
