Which organisation do i go with???

[JanCDav]

Hello all
just trying to start out on my own and wondering which organisation to go with NICEIC, NAPIT, Stroma or some other and why?

please advise

If cost alone is the issue then Stroma it is, a bit more diligent on the assessments. If you are just doing domestic stuff then go with stroma.
If long term you are going into commercial stuff of public sector then NICEIC as it has greater brand awareness as it where, rightly or wrongly the NICEIC seem to be most recognised. others may have differing views.
You also have NAPIT and Elecsa but elecsa and NICEIC are the same company.

If you’re looking to get into rental properties etc then a lot of estate agents/management companies will stipulate niceic, but it is only a brand recognition thing as at the end of the day it’s all the same to the council whom you notify to

Morning murdoch, which bit do you disagree with?

Stipulate NICEIC.... I just educate then about other CPS schemes.

But these organisations and business sector are best avoided

Completely agree with you with murdoch,I’m with stroma,cheapest, but I have on occasion been told i need to be with nic if I wanted to do work for some estate agents, never could be bothered to argue the ---- over the legality of that with an 18yr old “estate agent “ though
