My soffits, cladding and facias on a three bed semi are looking a bit
worse for wear so I decided to have the lot replaced in plastic.

A guy from Virgo Home Improvements came tonight and quoted £9,800
miraculously dropping to £3000 if I signed up tonight, he even got as
low as £1500.

Has anyone had similar stuff done by a reasonably national company and
have not been ripped off and have been satisfied with the product, after
all personal recommendation is worth more than any advertising, this
isn't windows, I've had them done.

Ask for a quote of the price in writing. I spent two hours one evening
with a bloke from CR Smiths who would do anything but write his offer
price down. He was prepared to walk away from a straightforward job
rather than give a quote in writing, and that was suspicion enough for
me.
