Deposit Protect

Every deposit paid on a Mi Local Trades landscaping project is protected - from the moment you pay until the day work begins.

What Your Deposit Is Protected Against

Projects Not Being Started

If your project never gets started within a reasonable time frame, your deposit is protected in full.

14-Day Cooling-Off Period

Change your mind within 14 days of paying and your full deposit is returned to you by bank transfer.

Delays, Illness or Bereavement

If your tradesperson is confirmed as delaying your project beyond excess, we bring in another trusted team to complete your original contract - and the original tradesperson is removed from our membership for life.

Cover Until Work Begins

Protection runs until the Contractors Contract is Active (or the 1st day of works begins). Once work commences, the cover is honoured and your contract protection is complete.

How It Works

When you pay a deposit for your landscaping project, your money is safeguarded by Deposit Protect. The cover runs from the moment you pay right up until the contracted landscaper arrives on site to start - so your project starts, or your money comes back.

Deposit Protect is a trading name of Mi Local Trades Ltd.
