Why do I need this course?
You can become an approved contractor provided you meet the criteria laid down by the water utility companies.
Adventages
- Approved contractors do not need to notify certain installations to the water company/ local authority.
- Water companies compile a list of approved operatives and contractors to which the general public can use.
- A large number of local authorities and housing associations will insist that plumbing contractors and operatives are approved.
- Approved operatives and contractors are permitted to self-certify their work, reducing the need for constant monitoring by water inspectors.
