Profession: Volunteer Home Projects Consultant

RB Roberts writes handy consumer protection works with special interest to homeowners and those similarly situated with emphasis on making safer and better contractor hiring decisions. Until December 2022, he was for 12 years a senior volunteer home projects consultant with HGRBS. The former nonprofit disseminated crucial anti-fraud recommendations regarding home improvement. The initiative was geared toward raising awareness for implementing realistic preventative measures which private home decision-makers can quickly adopt.

Previous to HGRBS, the author worked in a range of service industries, but mostly in the realm of property maintenance on various levels of consumer engagement for over thirty years. This prior experience invariably constituted the backdrop for propelling the author into home consumer support values beginning in 2009. But by early 2010, after learning about a startling account of home improvement fraud against a helpless elderly person [Mrs. Thomas], the undertaking quickly evolved into the leading preference for influencing safer and better resident-contractor relations. All said, what the author continually brings to the table, in honor of private home decision-makers, is another reliable resource you can use for preparing to take appropriate preventative measures against home improvement fraud. Finally, you’re always welcome to connect with the author to show your support, offer any relative comments, questions, and suggestions.
