North Troy, Vermont - October 16, 2011

State Police are warning homeowners about a contractor who they say is scamming customers.

33-year-old Leonard Percy runs Percy's Building Construction out of North Troy. Police say he recently had a customer pay him several thousand dollars as a down payment on a project, but never finished the work. Investigators believe there may be other victims in Lamoille, Franklin, and Chittenden Counties.

Percy has been previously charged for home improvement fraud and is currently listed on the Vermont Attorney General's Home Improvement Fraud Registry.

Ask for insurance, references and location to find them if there is any problems in the future. Do follow up on these items. This will make schemers run. I agree with Mike. This gives us all a bad name.

INSURANCE with your NAME and PROPERTY attached and Named on the certification.
That way if someone, God forbid, gets hurt on the job they cannot go to your homeowners.
Unless you actually kick out the ladder from them...............................accidents only.
