To feel a bit vulnerable (and stupid)

Today I opened the door to a guy who thrust a handyman leaflet at me. Now we'd been talking about getting the facsicas done on the garage recently so I stupidly said you can quote for the garage fascias, he looked dodgy and I instantly regretted opening my mouth, more so when another guy appeared from nowhere saying ' want it doing now? shall I fetch the wood? I said no, no just a quote, then he kept saying 150, it'll be 150 and I said I need to speak with hubby, he holds the cash, if he think's it's OK I'll get back to you. Then they left, I have a horrid feeling they may do the work when I'm out and demand the money or more money, so I feel vulnerable and stupid now

They haven't actually done anything wrong yet, have they?

How would you like a call from the police and questions asked when you haven't done anything?

If they do something wrong, then call.

If they do anything while you're out, they'll have no leg to stand on as you haven't signed any contracts etc. don't worry x

Put a note on the facia saying you don't want them to work on it. Photograph the note in situ.
