It could be that the company are new to the site If they seem like a company that you would wish to use then just take as many steps as you can to check them out Ask for previous customers contact numbers for recommendations If they are a ltd company you can go on to companies house records to look at there trading records If you go on to hire them make sure you have a contact with a written quotation and a time line for the work don't pay any money up front sort out a fair payment schedule Hope this helps regards peter howell

Hi Karen, Tradespeople without ratings have most likely just joined Rated People. Though they don’t have ratings yet, this doesn’t mean they’re not quality tradespeople. In fact, these tradespeople are incentivised to do a quality job to ensure that they get a brilliant first rating, helping them build their reputation and win future work. A good, quality tradesperson should have a portfolio of previous work. tradespeople can upload photos of past projects, qualifications and a description of their services on their Rated People profile. We recommend you review their profile for this information and ask them for customer references. Thanks, Josh Ask an expert team
