Bogus Workmen In Linlithgow Area

Updated: Apr 7, 2019



Unfortunately with the recent bad weather also comes the increase in Bogus workmen calls offering to clean gutters, repair roof tiles and cut back trees etc

Residents are reminded to take the following precautions:-

Do not feel pressurised into agreeing immediate work. Never listen to scare stories and beware of traders who suddenly appear after storms, floods or even snow and avoid claims that a low price is only available if you sign up right away.

Do not agree to buy from the first person who calls. Ask yourself if you really want these goods or services.

Do not pay cash up front. Never pay for work before it is completed and don't hand over large sums of money.

When in doubt Keep them out!!

Please do not take up their offers to carry out work These offers will be overpriced, the work will probably be substandard andcost you more money to get corrected.
