Compare Providers

Whether you are buying in products to help you or are buying in services such as cleaners, carers or builders you should at contact at least three different providers so that you can compare them.

We expect Green Tick providers to supply written quotes on headed paper, breaking down the work to be undertaken and clarifying where VAT applies. We also expect them to produce a receipt or invoice for your records.
