PCSO Declan Miller posted on West Mercia Police's Neighbourhood Matters page reporting the rogue trader in Highley.
He said this has caused distress to several elderly residents in the area.
A post said: "Before even thinking about agreeing to any building work, please make sure you take a name, company address and VAT Number and if you have any doubts whatsoever, check the company.
"In this instance, it's always good to go off recommendations that family/friends give and not to make a split second decision if put under pressure.
"Any concerns, please report to Trading standards | Shropshire Council, or alternatively call the Police on 101."
