Investigators with Toronto police believe two men were going door to door to convince homeowners there were problems with their houses, offering to fix them for a fee.

Halton Police have issued a warning to residents about a home repair fraud believed to be operating through door-to-door solicitation in the region.

Police said officers were called to the Lawrence Park neighbourhood on Sept. 24 with reports between one and three men were approaching homes owned by seniors "and convincing them" they need some sort of home renovation.
