Flintshire County Council’s Chief Officer for Planning, Environment and Economy, Andrew Farrow, said:

“Flintshire Trading Standards officers worked with NWP on a rogue trader operation.

If you are suspicious that work is required then contact a reputable builder and ask them to take a look to see if such work is required.

If you do not want cold callers at your door please contact FCC Trading Standards on 01352 703181 to request a No Cold calling sticker and we will post one out to you.”
