6 TRACK DOWN A TOP TRADESPERSON

‘One of the best ways to find a trustworthy tradesperson is to check if there’s a certification or registration body for the specific trade you’re looking for, such as NICEIC for electrical contractors. These organisations often have set requirements that businesses must meet to join them to ensure all the work they undertake meets the standards expected to keep us all safe.

Finally, if you’ve got a company in mind, we always recommend that you check its website to make sure it is registered.’

Paul Collins, Technical Services Manager, National Inspection Council for Electrical Installation Contracting (NICEIC)

Check your tradesperson is registered or certified before taking them on to ensure their work meets safety standards
