So many companies out there, no website would be a dead giveaway but even then no actual proof. If you are looking to have some work done ask them over and see how it feels ask the right questions etc. If you are in the trade then it dont really matter, do your own work best you can and if they are bodgers they will only make you look good right?

Flyers, 0800 number and a mobile number plus the company name all set my pikey-alarms sounding.

I would strongly advise against asking them over if you think they are pikeys, you are giving them an in, one foot in the door is all they need. ???

We leaflet sometimes, i hope people will continue to ask for quotes, and not stop because we may be gippos. To be fair the accent on the end of the line is normally a give away
