Rogue Traders
We have been made aware of incidents in Devon of rogue traders knocking on doors and suggesting work needs carrying out on the owners roof. These people are giving the false impression of being a local reputable company making it difficult to instantly recognise as a rogue trader. Advice from the Local Authority, Devon and Cornwall Police and Trading Standards is not to employ anyone knocking on your door touting for business.
