(GREENCASTLE) - The recent rash of bad weather brought more than wind damage to Greencastle.

With the amount of roof and other damages to homes, local contractors are concerned that disreputable contractors may scam homeowners.

According to the Better Business Bureau, home improvement scams are probably the single biggest source of complaints they receive. The number grew last month with the amount of wind damage that occurred in Putnam County.

Local contractor Brett Hurley suggests that homeowners be careful especially if someone just shows up at their door offering to make repairs.
