CompetentRoofer Limited is the leading Competent Persons scheme for roof refurbishment in the UK; Launched in 2010 with backing from the Department for Communities and Local Government (DCLG), CompetentRoofer has enjoyed great success in raising the profile of the roofing sector over the past five years:
• Signed up over 500 members
• Issued over 26,000 job notifications
• Saved millions of pounds in Building Regulation Compliance Certificates (BRCC) charges
Working with Local Authority Building Control (LABC) and other roofing sector bodies has also enabled CompetentRoofer to successfully expand across the UK. The growing partnerships with Which Trusted Trader and TrustMark, as well as the continued backing of the DCLG, means CompetentRoofer Registered Contractors continue to ‘Raise the Roof’ on industry standards.
New CompetentRoofer CEO – James Talman commented: “Our mission is to promote the Roofing sector to the Industrial, domestic and commercial markets and foremost to support CompetentRoofer members to win more business and increase the roof refurbishment industry standards.
“I am delighted to be taking on the responsibilities of leading CompetentRoofer Ltd and to meeting, listening and learning from our members. A key strength of our scheme is our organisation structure and partnership with roofing industry bodies to provide a framework of excellence for consumers seeking services and advice.
“At the start of this year it is pleasing to know that work levels are positive, with over 500 registered contractors affiliated with the CompetentRoofer scheme and a record number of Building Regulation Compliance Certificates (BRCC) issued throughout 2015, the sky is the limit. It is important that we are doing everything possible to ensure that our members are ambassadors for the reputation of the roofing sector as a whole, to promote quality services and expertise not only to commercial markets but to the domestic consumer also.
“I wish all our members a happy, healthy and profitable 2016.” www.competentroofer.co.uk
