Hi Maura, It is best to check the qualifications, experience, previous customer feedback and insurance of a tradesperson when choosing who to hire. If you have issues with work carried out, it's advised to contact citizens advice or trading standards. If a tradesperson is found through a site like Rated People, also contact us (or them) as well as leaving a review to make others aware of your experience. Thanks, Josh Ask an expert team
