Four men have been charged in relation to a travelling home repair scam.
On January 6, officers responded to a report of a home repair fraud in progress in Halifax. Police also received similar reports of home repair scams, not in progress, from November 27, 2024, to January 15, 2025.
A group of men were canvassing door-to-door throughout the municipality posing as a chimney and masonry company, using different fictitious company names:
Nova Construction and Masonry
All Seasons Construction
Firmway Construction
Marshall’s Construction
Rideau Masonry and Roofing
The scammers convinced victims, most of whom were seniors, to allow them to inspect their roofs and chimneys at which time they would identify required repairs to their homes. The suspects would obtain a large cash payment for the project. The crew would not return to the complete the agreed upon job, or they would conduct subpar work leaving the victim with a damaged or partially completed project.
On February 12, a search warrant was conducted at a residence on Hazelhurst Street in Dartmouth where four men were located and arrested for fraud.
On February 13, a search warrant was conducted at a residence on Battery Drive in Halifax where officers seized documents that lead them to believe the suspects were in the process of opening a new fraudulent business.
Four men will appear in Halifax provincial court at a later date:
The investigation remains ongoing.
If you have been a victim of fraud, including losing money or having your identity compromised as the result of a scam, please call police at 902-490-5020. You can also report a scam where you haven’t been a victim to the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, or call 1-888-495-8501.
