I called back and got asked about "damp, mould or water leaks in the house". Probably scam, and at best a company desperately looking for clients.

Said nothing and then ended call
Said they were called Harris calling from housing repairs, I hung up scammers!
The caller was a male and claimed to be called Harris. He said they were calling from Housing Repairs Team, that they were a Compliance Department working for all councils. They kept asking me if there were any cracks, or mould, or other problems with my house. I kept asking them who they were, what the name of their firm was. They hung up. I called them back and they answered Housing Repairs Team, this time a lady. I asked to speak to Harris again but they ignored me and kept asking about the problems with my house. They are clearly claims fishing for housing disrepair cases.
Housing repairs team, scam
After the usual pause for someone to pick up the call from the autodialler, Danny announced himself from housing repairs about the housing issues I had reported. I told him not to be silly and hung up.
