Im not sure if this is the right forum but beware of Bradford based firm Virgo Home Improvements.
They cold called on my grandmother, 78 and quoted her £7000 for about 40 meters of guttering on a semi detatched. The sales man pressured her into paying a £900 deposit! Luckily we managed to put a stop to the cheque and cancelled all work with this company before the due to start date! We called a friend who has a local guttering firm who is doing the whole job for about 1/4 of the price my grandmother paid for the deposit to these scammers!
AVOID AT ALL COST
Im also going to report them to Trading Standards!
