Neighbourhood Watch

Picture
A new Neighbourhood Watch scheme is being set up (once Covid restrictions allow) for St Nicholas following a number of recorded incidents of crime.  There are low levels of crime, however, vigilance remains important.  More information can be found on the St Nicholas Village website.

Footway obstruction

Footpaths

We have produced a page of guidance for landowners and users of footpaths.

Assisted Collections

Residents who are unable to carry their recycling containers and sacks to the road side may apply to the Vale of Glamorgan Council for Assisted Collections - where the operatives collect from an accessible location by the doors of homes.

Employing Reputable Trades People

Please ensure that anyone removing any type of waste from your property is a licenced waste carrier.  We all have a role to play in preventing fly-tipping.  Please check the Register of Waste Carriers, Brokers and Dealers before employing anyone to take away waste.

We do not recommend any contractor - sole trader or company - nor any website where trades people pay to advertise and "customers" leave reviews.

Always get three quotes for work and beware of trades people who leaflet or door-knock for work.  Professional bodies/trade associations are perhaps the best source of reputable trades people. 

National Federation Roofing Contractors

Federation of Master Builders

Property Care Association

Association of Specialist Underpinning Contractors (ASUC)

The Guild of Builders and Contractors

The Association of Plumbing and Heating Contractors (APHC)

The British Associations Organisations and Governing Bodies provide a greater list of trade associations.  Selecting a member of a trade association does not guarantee a fair price, nor work of a suitable quality.  However, this reduces the risk of employing a rogue trader.
