Welcome to CompetentRoofer

CompetentRoofer is the Government-authorised Competent Person Scheme for England and Wales that allows professional roofing contractors to self-certify that their roof refurbishment work complies with Building Regulations. The scheme encompasses all roofing types for domestic, industrial and commercial properties and is open to all roofing contractors to apply.

Many jobs undertaken need to be notified to and authorised by Local Authority Building Control (LABC) and in many cases this includes work done to your roof. By using a CompetentRoofer member, property owners will save not only time and money but will have the added reassurance that the work carried out meets the exacting standards of the Building Regulations.

Regulation – CompetentRoofer members are compliant and up to date with Building Regulations

Reliability – CompetentRoofer members are professional contractors who are thoroughly inspected prior to acceptance and undergo regular inspections thereafter

Reassurance – Domestic roofing works automatically receive a 10 year warranty. (Warranties are available for commercial/industrial works).

  • Supported by the Industry

    CompetentRoofer has been the long term aspiration of the Roofing Industry and is fully supported by associations, manufacturers, service providers and merchants.
