Trader register

your local council might have one and its worth registering on it to get on the list.
old / vunerable or proper people use it to source 'reputable' tradesmen in our area.
maybe they will/could start one for ''customers to avoid '' lists by tradesmen ?

David Jessop said… Hi re your query regarding site in London. Our commercial team tell me that we supplied Saxon paving buff, some textured edging in silver grey and and some conservation kerb again in silver grey. They can find nothing else that we provided to that site. Hope this helps
