The NFRC promotes roofing excellence, and all our members have been vetted and must adhere to our rigorous Code of Practice and they are continuously inspected to ensure compliance.

This include NFRC Covid-safe signage to provide confidence to clients and the General Public that our members are working safely.
How to raise a concern
All NFRC members should be complying with public health and government guidance, however, we understand that there may be situations where this is not the case. If you are concerned that a roofing contractor is not complying with the relevant guidelines, in the first instance please raise your concerns directly with the company in question. It may be the Health and Safety Officer or site manager was not aware of this breach and may be able to address your concerns quickly and relatively simply.
If this is not successful and the company in question are an NFRC member, which you can check using our online member directory You could send us details of your concerns and how your believe the contractor isn’t following the issued guidance, including photographs by completing the form below.
This can be sent anonymously but we cannot provide you with any feedback if you do not provide contact details.
Unfortunately we would not be able to assist if the contractor is not a member of NFRC but you could advise the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) online or by calling 0300 003 1647.
