quality service
MEMBERS of the Confederation of Roofing Contractors are committed to providing clients with a quality driven service, reflecting good craft skills and working practices and a fair price. The confederation expects high standards from its members, promoting them as being among the best in the roofing trade.
Members undertake roof repairs as well as creating new roofs. Their work is backed up with a ten-year guarantee which ensures that, in the
unlikely event of them ceasing trading, a client’s roof will still be repaired free of charge should a defect occur.
Associate membership of the confederation is open to manufacturers and suppliers of roofing products.

Report welcomed NICEIC
NICEIC, which approves and registers electrical contractors, has welcomed the Communities and Local Government (CLG) Select Committee report into Building Regulations. After hearing evidence from the electrical contracting industry, local authorities and others, the committee said it cannot support deregulation of the regulations if electrical safety is compromised. The committee said it had clear evidence to show that deaths and injuries due to electrical faults have decreased since the introduction of the regulations. ‘For a long time now NICEIC has been voicing its concerns that electrical safety must not be compromised by any amendments,’ said NICEIC chief Emma Clancy.
‘Carrying out any electrical
work around the home can be potentially fatal. It should not be taken lightly and should always be undertaken by a competent person who is registered with an accredited body.
‘NICEIC welcomes the latest comments and hopes the Government takes on board the views of the committee.’ Committee chair Clive Betts said: ‘We could only support deregulation if there was clear evidence that safety standards would not suffer, but such evidence has not been provided by the Government.’
In addition, the committee said more needs to be done to raise public awareness that electrical work can potentially be extremely hazardous.
The
committee is recommending that all electrical equipment sold in DIY stores carries a health warning that it is illegal for an unregistered person to carry out most electrical works in the home.
NICEIC offers certification services, Building Regulations schemes, and products and support to electrical contractors and other trades within the construction industry. For more information, visit the website at
