We’ve just got a couple of these through the post after submitting a planning application, both with detailed costings and a total price too good to be true.
One of them somehow managed to get hold of my phone number and rang repeatedly over the course of a weekend until I politely told the dude to do one.
They scan the planning applications and then blunderbuss everyone locally in the hope they get a nibble. I had lots of these a year or so ago. One bloke actually sent me a fairly detailed quote for the totality of the work I'd got planning for which I was impressed with. The price was good too. But if they have to do this to get work then it's a major red flag obvs
