We're the Association of Plumbing & Heating Contractors and we're committed to helping our members run successful plumbing and heating businesses. We're able to do this through being a membership organisation which is owned and run by our members for our members. We're also a not for profit organisation which means we invest every penny that we receive back into our organisation for the direct benefit of each and every member.
Once a plumbing and heating company becomes a member, generally we find they remain members for the duration of their business careers. Members are vetted to ensure they work to defined trading standards and have appropriate levels of insurance, qualifications and/or experience. Members can self-certify plumbing and heating works that at fall under the scope of Building Regulations.
Self-certification provides a much more cost effective route as compared with the alternative of notifying work through local building control bodies. Members of this scheme must also hold Licensed membership.
