Following Storm Darragh, police in Stamford, Bourne and the Deepings are asking residents to keep a lookout for opportunistic criminals
offering unnecessary home repairs not just at the doorstep but on social media too. Officers have issued the warning urging people not to feel pressured into making a decision on the phone, doorstep or online. They say if you need emergency repairs, try and ask friends and family for recommendations and ask for a written quote and contract for the work.
