Business cards can be a sign of a trustworthy tradesman

Business cards can help boost the credibility of tradespeople

Natural disasters - such as this year's floods and cyclone - can cause property damage and you may find you need to call in the pros to repair roofs, carry out plumbing work or help clean out your garden.

But Margarette Burnette of Fox Business reports that after a natural disaster, many "unlicensed and inexperienced contractors" emerge from the woodwork "in quest of easy insurance money".

She advised that it is important for homeowners to be vigilant in looking for the signs of a fraudulent tradesperson.

In particular, warning signs to look out for include failing to provide references, asking for complete payment before any work is carried out and refusal to show identification in the form of a badge or business card.

Reputable tradespeople may wish to set themselves apart from the competition by arranging for a printing service to prepare business cards featuring their company logo and contact details.

If you are pressed for time or are unsure of where to start when it comes to designing an effective, eye-catching card, your Sydney printing service may be able to offer a range of templates for you to choose from - or even take the design work off your hands altogether.
