Solar installations on roofs are becoming an increasingly common sight across the UK. With this in mind, NFRC is encouraging its roofers to work together with reputable plumbers and electricians in order to achieve the optimum solar installation. Our belief is that competence in roofing work rather than just knowing how to install the system is a key component when it comes to installing solar panels. Professional roofing contractors can bring expertise and knowledge, as well as the correct insurance for working at height, to solar installation.
NFRC also runs the National Heritage Roofing Contractors' Register, which is open to any roofing contractor specialising within the heritage sector to apply of and also lists members from the Lead Contractors Association (LCA). Trade Members are those who carry out the work. Before any roofing contractor is accepted into membership, they must go through a vigorous vetting procedure. This includes an office and site audit, to ensure that every member works to the standard you would expect from the NFRC.
NFRC currently offers three types of membership: trade (for roofing contractors), supplier (for manufacturers, merchants and service providers to the roofing industry) and affiliated membership (roofing colleges and training centres). Please see below for full details of each type along with the list of benefits and advantages it could offer to you. The NFRC can help enhance your reputation. We audit all members for quality assurances and have a strict Code of Conduct which all members have to adhere to.
Britain has one of the oldest housing stocks in Europe, many of them in conservation areas. There are many thousands of other listed buildings such as churches, civic buildings, mills, farmhouses cottages and country buildings, as well as stately homes and so on. They are all part of our nation's famous and very special heritage and when it comes to their repair and renovation they demand extra special workmanship and attention to detail. To help ensure that the roofs, at least, on these precious buildings are restored to the highest possible standards NFRC established a National Heritage Roofing Contractors Register.
When choosing a roofing contractor you should consider your choice very carefully and you are advised to check them out before employing them. If you employ a good reputable roofing contractor in terms of price, reliability and workmanship, the potential for problems will be greatly reduced.
It goes without saying that the roof over your head is one of the most important parts of your home, protecting you and your possessions from the elements. Whether you need a repair, a new roof, or are replacing an existing roof, using an NFRC member contractor to carry out the work will give you peace of mind, as well as a weatherproof roof. To ensure that NFRC contractors offer the highest standards in workmanship and customer service, all member contractors are rigorously vetted before joining NFRC and every three years thereafter.
