HandyPro Rochester Hills Handyman Provides Tips to Avoid Scammers

(EMAILWIRE.COM, May 08, 2012 ) Rochester Hills, MI – According to Rochester Hills Handyman, Antony Bradley, the demand for honest and reliable handyman services has increased. Unfortunately, the scammers have found their way into the home service industry, so Bradley provides tips to consumers to protect themselves and avoid being ripped off.

Many handyman services and home repair contractors that advertise their services are reputable, but some are not. With scam artists in nearly every profession, handyman services and home repair contractor scams are very common today.

Antony Bradley owns HandyPro Handyman Services in North Oakland County. As he becomes aware of scams used by contractors he passes the information onto his customers. “Consumers deserve dependable, honest service and only the honest handyman deserves their business,” said Bradley. “Times are tough and some reliable contractors need the work. I hate to see the scammer get paid while the honest handyman starves and his potential customers get ripped off!”

Here is an example of a common scam used by some home service contractors:

Handyman scam artists often take advantage of the elderly or the single female homeowner. A charming young man can easily gain the trust of the older woman living alone. Maybe he will do a small home repair job to show good faith, and then offer to inspect the roof, plumbing or electrical system. Of course he will find a problem and offer a solution, but the materials will be expensive and he will need money up front. When the homeowner agrees and gives him money, he disappears without doing the job.

The Rochester Hills handyman has posted an article to his site for consumers to read more about handyman service scams and how to avoid being a victim. Also find information about DIY home repairs and finding a reputable handyman service to handle everything on the to-do list. The site has become a great resource for area residents who prefer to hire it done.
