Competent Roofer is a competent person scheme managed by the NFRC, allowing roofing companies who register to self-certify for Building Regulations on qualifying roofing refurbishment work in the domestic, commercial and industrial roofing sectors. This will mean that roofing companies not only save time and money in terms of not having to pay Building Control to inspect and issue costly certificates on work undertaken, but demonstrates to their customers that they are a credible competent roofing company that can provide quality work and peace of mind.
The scheme is open to all contractors both NFRC and non-NFRC members. Competent Roofer is part of a wider Competent Persons scheme that has been in operation to various parts of the construction industry, with schemes being managed by organisations including Certass, FENSA, NAPIT and ELECSA to name but a few.
How The Scheme Works
Roofing companies that join the scheme will get a minimum of two random work in progress inspections per year. On completing roofing works the company notifies CompetentRoofer, via an online system, which will then send a copy of the certificate to the appropriate Local Authority Building Control (LABC) office to register the roof and a certificate will also be sent directly to the building owner.
