One word;

STROMA

£288 for the whole year, my assessment was completed by a nice bloke (about 1.5hrs) , and he had no issue with changing the location of the works to be inspected on the day due to an access issue.

Easy

My only gripe is that their website is a clunky, but thats easily forgivable considering the savings of stress, time and ££!

Great,until you are tendering for work which requires accreditation (local authority,insurance etc) which 99% of the time will need to be NICEIC. Wont seem such good value then.
 
Wouldn't entertain any of them, why do you need to pay an organisation to keep an eye on you ?
Unfortunately due to your inexperience it will be difficult to answer that question because I just think you will not understand the answer, One day you will feel embarrassed by that question, I hope for your future it is sooner rather than later.
 
Architects can specify what they like, don't mean their right and a lot of the time its just copied from a set format inserted in the spec or onto a drawing.
Again you have embarrassed yourself, if you are ever going to become a company which thrives with employees you will cringe at your reply here.

Hear Hear, well said, unfortunately only myself and you on this thread will probably understand your reply, very inexperienced guys on the forum as of late.

I am an approved contractor, have been for 10 years. I do a lot of work for a company who specialise in fire and flood restoration through insurance companies,I wouldn't get a second look if I wasn't. And a builder who I work for does his 10year guarantee through zurich instead of nhbc on new builds and zurich stipulate approved contractor (may have changed now but this was certainly the case when I first started doing their work).

Worked as a QS for a NIC company many years ago, not interested in none of the scheme now. I do fine just having a JIB ticket and earn a living Thanks.

No embarrassment on my behalf for asking a question.
 
Can we keep it on track guys, this is an Handbag free zone:toetap05:
