There are many 'trade bodies' out there, taking decoratating for example you'll find about 10 and all but two of them come out and inspect your work (Dulux being one) the rest just charge a fee for letting you use the logo so aren't worth a ...., You can set one up tomorrow and start selling logo's it's llike anything else the customer still has to check out who is backing the work as there are 'rouge' bodies about just like tradesmen

It would be worth while carpy finding out which one and prosecuting them.

No way!!!!!!:yikes::yikes::yikes::yikes::yikes: If it is then they would have a very real chance of getting some money off them, i've never really liked check-a-trade but as far as these firms go they certainly aren't the worst out there

ahh the small print from check-a-trade

Still I think it's worth a punt as check-a-trade wouldn't want the bad publicity
