ACSAP Ltd are NFRC-accredited commercial roofing contractors based in Nuneaton, Warwickshire. We have been NFRC members since 2000 and hold Safe Contractor accreditation, TrustMark registration and Competent Roofer status. We are approved installers for commercial roofing systems including single ply membranes, torch-on felt, profiled metal and structural decking systems. We operate across the Midlands and nationwide for commercial and industrial subcontract work.
Yes. ACSAP has an established history of working as a specialist roofing subcontractor on large commercial and public sector projects alongside main contractors. Past projects include roofing works at King’s Cross Station in London, Birmingham Children’s Hospital, Leamington Rehabilitation Hospital, and commercial sites for Peugeot Motor Company and Murphy Group. We are familiar with pre-qualification requirements, CDM compliance, RAMS documentation and the programme pressures of large-scale construction projects. We carry out work under JCT, NEC and bespoke subcontract arrangements.
Roofing subcontractors who rely on agency or temporary labour create several risks for the principal contractor. Health and safety liability can fall to the main contractor if an operative is not properly trained, insured or inducted. Employment disputes overpay or working conditions – common when temporary workers are used – can disrupt programme delivery. Manufacturer warranties on roofing systems are only valid when installed by an approved contractor, so an unaccredited installer voids the warranty the client expects to receive. ACSAP uses a directly employed workforce – not agency labour – and holds the accreditations that qualifying installations require. Our costs reflect this, but so does our compliance record and the warranties we can provide.
For commercial roofing work the key accreditations to look for are NFRC membership, Safe Contractor or equivalent health and safety accreditation such as CHAS or Constructionline, and manufacturer approval for the specific roofing system being installed. TrustMark registration is relevant for work on domestic and public sector properties. For public sector and NHS contracts, Constructionline Gold or equivalent pre-qualification is often required. ACSAP holds NFRC membership, Safe Contractor accreditation, TrustMark registration and Competent Roofer status, and can provide full pre-qualification documentation on request.
ACSAP is a family business and the core of our workforce is made up of family members who have grown up in the trade. Beyond the family, we work with a small number of trusted, qualified roofers who are rigorously vetted before being brought onto any project. We do not use agency labour or take on unknown temporary workers to fulfil contracts. Every person we put on site – whether family or otherwise – is qualified, insured and known to us personally. This approach means our costs are sometimes higher than competitors who source cheap agency labour at short notice, but it also means the principal contractor knows exactly who is on their roof and why.
ACSAP installs torch-on felt roofing, single ply membranes including Armourplan, profiled metal roofing and steel cladding, liquid-applied roof coatings, structural decking systems including Speeddeck and Tactray, and a full range of pitched roofing systems including natural slate and clay and concrete tiles. We also carry out planned and reactive maintenance on commercial and industrial roofs. We hold manufacturer approvals across our core systems and can provide manufacturer-backed guarantees on qualifying installations.
Contact us directly from our website to request a pre-qualification pack. We can provide NFRC membership certificates, Safe Contractor accreditation, TrustMark registration, public and employer’s liability insurance certificates, RAMS templates and examples of completed commercial projects. We are also registered on Constructionline. We welcome the opportunity to be considered for approved supplier lists and roofing framework agreements with main contractors and commercial clients across the Midlands and nationally.
Potentially yes on both counts — and it’s something most homeowners aren’t aware of until it becomes a problem.
Building Regulations and the compliance certificate
Since October 2010 it has been a legal requirement in England and Wales that when 25% or more of a roof is replaced, the work must comply with Building Regulations and be certified accordingly. Roofing work completed by rogue contractors may affect the fire safety of your property and could invalidate expensive home insurance policies. The document that confirms compliance is called a Building Regulations Compliance Certificate – or BRCC. Without a valid BRCC you may encounter problems when it comes to selling your property.
There are two ways to obtain a BRCC. You can go through your local authority Building Control directly, which involves submitting the work for inspection and approval. Or you can use a contractor registered on a Competent Person Scheme – such as the NFRC Competent Person Scheme – who can self-certify the work and issue the certificate directly. Using a contractor with recognition via the NFRC CPS scheme means that once the work has been completed and signed off, the homeowner will receive a BRCC plus a 10-year Insurance Backed Guarantee.
An unaccredited contractor cannot self-certify. If they don’t notify Building Control either — which many don’t – the work is uncertified, the BRCC doesn’t exist, and the legal and financial consequences fall on the homeowner, not the roofer.
Property resale
If you do not have a BRCC and have re-roofed your property, you may not be able to refinance or insure it without evidence that you have complied with Building Regulations. Solicitors routinely request compliance certificates during conveyancing. A missing BRCC can delay or derail a property sale, reduce the value a buyer is willing to pay, or require expensive retrospective certification – which involves Building Control inspecting completed work, potentially requiring areas to be opened up, and charging a higher fee than if the work had been notified in advance.
The German comparison
It is worth noting that in Germany this problem largely doesn’t exist. Under Germany’s ‘Handwerksordnung’ – the national Crafts and Trades Code – roofing is classified as a licensed trade requiring a completed master tradesperson examination before anyone can operate as a roofing contractor. An unqualified person simply cannot legally set up as a roofer. Professional trade and craft groups in Germany have noted that removing such qualification requirements led to poorer quality work, a lack of trained apprentices and failing businesses – observations that resonate in the UK context where no such mandatory licensing exists.
What this means in practice
ACSAP is registered on the NFRC Competent Person Scheme, which means we can self-certify re-roofing work and issue a Building Regulations Compliance Certificate directly upon completion, along with a 10-year Insurance Backed Guarantee. You do not need to separately notify Building Control or arrange an inspection. If you are considering a full or partial roof replacement, make sure any contractor you appoint can provide a BRCC – and ask to see their Competent Person Scheme registration before work begins.
