The Federation of Master Builders (FMB), through its agreement with the NAPIT Registration, now offers one of the most comprehensive routes to Competent Person Scheme registration in the UK.
The Department for Communities and Local Government has authorised the extension of the scheme to include replacement windows and doors, replacement roofing, installation of insulation measures and installation of mechanical ventilation and air conditioning systems in non-domestic buildings.
Brian Berry, Chief Executive of the FMB, said: “Competent Person Scheme registration demonstrates quality and competence to customers, and businesses can proudly promote the fact that they are registered. The extensive range of registration and certification services now available to FMB members will help them to access new business opportunities in the expanding low-carbon building and refurbishment market.”
Berry added: “Being registered with a Competent Person Scheme is also likely to be very cost-effective for any company that submits four or more Building Notices every year for work that could be self-certified, with the savings typically covering the initial registration cost.
"We know it can be difficult for small businesses to understand their best option when it comes to demonstrating high standards of workmanship and a strong customer service record. That’s why we want to offer FMB members access to a range of registration and certification services that is probably the most extensive on offer through one single route.”
