A MAN has reportedly been touting to tarmac driveways in All Saints.

Police were informed yesterday (October 8) that a white male, around 5 ft 5, with dark curly hair, had been asking residents if they wanted their drive resurfaced.

PC Kevin Bennett is advising residents to be vigilant and check that all cold callers are from legitimate companies.

He said: "Community messaging went out yesterday warning people to be vigilant with any door to door salesman. If necessary, leave them standing at the door step while you check out their details. A legitimate caller will not object."

He said people could check with the company provider to see if the caller was genuine, check if they had a registered business card with a telephone number, of a signed vehicle.
