What our customers say:
"I have used several members from Safe Local Trades and I have been extremely pleased with the results and the service provided by them. I think this is an excellent scheme, as there are so many cowboys and rogues out there; it is a great way to source reputable trustworthy tradespeople. Thank you."

Google
Your web profile will be indexed by Google therefore giving you a better presence on internet search engines. Research shows that consumers tend to carry out online research of a business prior to agreeing to allow them to undertake work. Typing 'Reviews for [business name]' into Google will ensure that your entry on Safe Local Trades will appear as the top line. Consumers will then not only see that you are associated with a trusted brand but will also be able to read your genuine customer reviews.
Feedback
Published genuine feedback from customers is extremely powerful for the success of your business. Build your ratings and watch your business grow. We provide you with unlimited feedback packs that can be handed to your customers, or they can leave their feedback online. We do not accept anonymous feedback and every review is monitored; if negative feedback is submitted, we give you the chance to rectify the situation prior to publishing it.
Exclusivity
Safe Local Trades is 'not' another trade directory; we only have limited spaces for each trade - our success is based on 'quality' of our members rather than 'quantity'.
Logo of Accreditation
Since 2008, Safe Local Trades has built up immense credibility with over 17,000 satisfied customers leaving reviews on members records. In 2007, we had a vision to build a local trusted brand name that consumers in the PE postcode district would recognise and use and we have successfully accomplished this. A copy of the safelocaltrades.com logo will be supplied to you to use on your business cards, corporate stationery, website, adverts etc., together with vinyl vehicle stickers. Consumers recognise this as the local symbol of trust and quality.

Our Partnerships
Unlike any other similar scheme, as well as our work with the trades, much effort is placed on safeguarding the more vulnerable people in our communities by working personally and directly with other caring and concerned parties in the 'local' community such as Peterborough and Cambridgeshire Neighbourhood Watch, Age UK, Cambs Police Crime Prevention, The Bobby Scheme, Disability Peterborough, Care Network, CAPASP (Cambridgeshire & Peterborough Against Scams Partnership) and many more.

What our Members say:
"Since becoming a member of Safe Local Trades, my business has continually reaped the benefits of membership. In addition to the new clients I have acquired as a direct result, my level of repeat custom has increased and I would solely survive on just working for Safe Local Trades customers, if I could. Becoming a member has been the best thing I have done since branching out on my own. Thank you for all the hard work and effort you put into both member and customer services.
