Independently vetted and recommended – why are all flat roofing companies not the same!

It is unfortunate that the flat roofing company is one of the few home improvement industries that doesn’t have a governing body that oversees installers’ quality of workmanship, materials and service. Alarmingly, this means that absolutely anyone can decide to set up a roofing company, irrespective of their experience or standards of delivery.

However, this doesn’t mean that you can’t protect yourself from the ‘cowboy’ roofers . Any reputable roofing company will be affiliated and accredited by a wide variety of consumer protection associations.

High-Tech Membrane Roofing’s preferred Single-Ply Membranes can only be purchased and fitted by a fully licensed installation company; in order to become licensed, installation companies must have been trading for at least five years, hold the required public and liability insurance, offer insurance-backed guarantees for all work undertaken, have the sufficient health and safety training and only use trained installation technicians. Each and every one of our roofing technicians have undergone rigorous NVQ centre training and ongoing monitoring and assessment to ensure the highest quality of service to our customers.

For your added peace of mind, High-Tech Membrane Roofing is a member of:

• National Federation of Roofing Contractors (NFRC)
• CompetentRoofer
• TrustATrader
• TrustMark
• Fairtrades
• HomePro
• Quotatis

Established almost 120 years, the National Federation of Roofing Contractors (NFRC) is the largest roofing trade association in the UK. Using an NFRC member contractor such as High-Tech Membrane Roofing will provide you with the peace of mind that comes with quality workmanship, high standards and materials and service, and in-depth industry knowledge and expertise.

Established in 2005, TrustATrader is a UK online directory that enables people to find traders that have been rated and recommended by past customers.

The TrustMark scheme is supported by the UK government, the building industry and a variety of consumer protection groups. It provides consumers with impartial assessments of the standards of local tradespeople and installers, who operate to government-endorsed standards.

For the past thirty years, the Fairtrades association has promoted recommended builders, roofers, double glazing installers, plumbers, joiners and solar installers. All registered members are required to uphold the Fairtrades Homeowners Charter to ensure the highest standards of service.

HomePro is one of the UK’s largest providers of Insurance-Backed Guarantees (IBG) to the home improvement industry, protecting the customer’s financial investment in the event that their chosen installer ceases trading.
