When it comes to anything related to your electrics or electrical items, you definitely shouldn’t cut corners. With an NICEIC approved contractor, you know you can trust in their experience and skills within the industry to get the job done to only the highest standard. 

In this blog, we’ll run over the top reasons why you should choose an NICEIC approved contractor for your next project as well as where you can find one in your local area.

#1 Get High-Quality Workmanship

With almost any accreditation, you are expected to be assessed to ensure you meet the relevant criteria. As electricians with an NICEIC accreditation have to be assessed to a high standard covering a variety of electrical installations, you can trust in the quality of their work. 

Plus, after all the assessments you can rely on your electrical contractor to be safe within their workspace. From important codes of practice to technical standards, any NICEIC approved contractor should be capable to partake in a variety of electrical jobs and projects in the correct manner.

#2 Overall Compliance

As much as it is important that contractors are being safe in your home, commercial or industrial properties, you will also want to know that they are complying with the latest building regulations. 

Any electrician with an NICEIC certificate that is also registered to the NICEIC Building Regulations Scheme is expected to comply with the relevant building regulations. In most cases, approved contractors can self-certify their work without being hindered by the Local Authority who look after Building Control.

You can save so much more time working with an NICEIC approved contractor, compared to a standard electrician, because of their additional authority relating to the current building regulations.

#3 NICEIC Platinum Promise

You can get extra protection with the NICEIC Platinum Promise based on any work undertaken by an NICEIC approved contractor. In the event that a contractor is no longer registered or has ceased trading, the NICEIC will help you out. 

You can use the Platinum Policy if the work has been fully completed in the last 6 years by a contractor that was registered with the NICEIC at the time the work was completed.
