NFRC are closely following the advice from Public Health England regarding COVID-19. As a precautionary measure we have closed the NFRC's London head office in Worship Street until further notice. Wherever possible our staff are continuing to work from home and have access to emails—our telephones have also been diverted so we are answering calls.
In addition we have launched a dedicated Coronavirus Advice hub that focuses specifically on how the outbreak is impacting the UK roofing industry.
This will be continuously updated as the situation changes.
NFRC is the UK’s largest roofing trade association. With a history spanning over 125 years, NFRC has established itself as the voice of the roofing industry, constantly adapting to change and innovation to ensure its members are at the forefront.
Whether you are a contractor, manufacturer or even a college, NFRC has a suitable membership package for you. NFRC has a strong commitment to supporting members, and with a host of benefits there has never been a better time to join.
NFRC produces a wide range of technical publications covering the numerous roofing disciplines which are free to download.
NFRC actively ensures that all members offer high standards of workmanship and sound business practice through a strict code of practice and vetting procedure, including site inspections and adhering to Government endorsed standards.
No matter the type of roof or the size of the project you will be able to find an NFRC approved contractor to suit your needs. NFRC also operates the National Heritage Roofing Contractors Register for qualified heritage roofing specialists.
Green Homes Grant
“NFRC has applied to reignite its PAS2030 accreditation, which it had previously until 2019 in support of the defunct Green Deal. We will be keeping members up-to-date on the progress of this application. We understand the time pressures surrounding these vouchers, but we urge members to bear with us while our application is processed. In addition, we are actively lobbying for the extension of this scheme due to capacity issues in the industry. If you have any further questions, please let us know by emailing helpdesk@nfrc.co.uk.”
The government has two dedicated email addresses that have been created for specific enquiries relating to the Green Homes Grant:
Installer enquiries: installer.green-homes-grant@beis.gov.uk
Customer enquiries: customer.green-homes-grant@beis.gov.uk
