People are being urged not to employ traders who call at their property to tout for work without an appointment, which is illegal in the Isle of Man.
The warning by the Isle of Man Office of Fair Trading (IoMFT) comes after recent storms damaged properties on the Island and presented unscrupulous traders with an opportunity to offer unsolicited work.
The IoMFT is asking people to remain vigilant and look out for vulnerable friends, relatives and neighbours who could fall foul.
John Wannenburgh, Chair of the IoMOFT, said: “Whilst the recent stormy weather may have left householders with damage to fix, they should remain vigilant and not compound the situation by falling prey to a rogue trader, especially one who cold calls. It can be frustrating when traders are not able to start straightaway, but it is worth waiting for a genuine trader.”
