Welcome to the Ashurst and Colbury Web Site.
Hampshire County Council Trading Standards Service - Warning
Rogue Traders are currently cold calling/leaflet dropping in the Totton and surrounding area of Hampshire offering to block pave driveways. They are starting work without consent and not providing any paperwork to identify who they are, where they operate from and details of your right to a cooling off period.
Trading Standards would advise consumers not to agree to work that is instigated as a result of a cold call or via a leaflet drop. Consumers should obtain at least 3 written quotes from reputable businesses or traders who are either members of the Hampshire County Council Trading Standards Buy With Confidence Scheme or a recognised trade association.
Members of the Buy With Confidence scheme are fully audited to ensure their trading practices are legal, honest and fair. All members have been checked for trustworthiness and compliance with consumer protection laws. Details can be obtained by telephoning 01962 833620, emailing buy.with.confidence@hants.gov.uk or via the website www.buywithconfidence.gov.uk
