Householders 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 advice, issued by the Isle of Man Office of Fair Trading (OFT) and the Isle of Man Constabulary, follows recent instances of traders cold calling at properties offering to carry out home improvement work.
The public are asked to remain vigilant and look out for vulnerable friends, relatives and neighbours who could fall foul of rogue traders cold calling.
