How to choose a provider safely (quick guide)

Five practical steps

  1. Shortlist 2–3 local providers (Saltaire/Shipley).
  2. Check basics: phone, website or email, and a genuine local footprint.
  3. For trades: ask for proof of public liability insurance. For pet/child services: DBS where appropriate.
  4. Get a written estimate and clarify what’s included/excluded.
  5. Agree start date, access and cancellation terms in writing.

Documents and availability can change — confirm on the day and keep copies of quotes and invoices.

Questions to ask

  • Are you insured and can you share proof?
  • What happens if plans change or it overruns?
  • Any call-out or out-of-hours fees?
  • Do you have recent local references?

We don’t give legal advice; use common sense and keep a paper trail.
