CHOOSING a business to work on their house or provide a financial service can be a major headache for people who fear falling prey to dodgy workmen or rip-off merchants.

Derbyshire Trusted Trader scheme, which was set up by Derbyshire County Council in 2007, aims to help you find honest and reliable traders who will commit to doing a good job for a fair price.

And the scheme doesn't just cater for traders offering customers a service for their home, such as plumbers, builders, roofers, decorators, joiners, electricians and gardeners.

You can also find retailers, graphic designers, solicitors, dressmakers, osteopaths, hypnotherapists and psychotherapists among the ranks of registered Trusted Traders.
