Did you know out-of-scope works such as new build projects, can be registered on the Contractor’s portal? This allows your company to maintain its competency assessment requirements even if you do not currently have any refurbishment works to register through the CP scheme.

Understanding Professional Indemnity Insurance for Roofing Contractors

As a roofing contractor, securing professional indemnity (PI) insurance is essential to protect your business against claims of professional negligence. This type of insurance covers legal costs and compensation payments if a client alleges that your work or advice has caused them financial loss. To ensure you get the best terms from an insurance broker, it is important to demonstrate good risk management practices.
