Trust & standards

Accreditations & Safety

Roofing is skilled, and often high-risk, work. These are the accreditations and safety standards that show we take it seriously, explained in plain English.

Accreditations

Independently assessed, properly qualified

We hold recognised accreditations that are independently checked, not badges we have awarded ourselves.

CHAS Elite (SSIP) certificate held by First Rate Roofing

CHAS Elite (SSIP)

CHAS is one of the UK's leading health and safety accreditation schemes and an SSIP (Safety Schemes in Procurement) member. Our CHAS Elite status means our health, safety, compliance and business practices have been independently assessed against a recognised standard, which matters especially for commercial, school and public-sector work.

CHAS Certificate of Compliance certificate held by First Rate Roofing

How we work safely

Good roofing is safe roofing. Here is how we protect our team, your property and everyone on site.

Risk assessments & method statements

We prepare RAMS for our work so every job is planned, hazards are identified and controls are in place before we start.

Safe working at height

We use the right access for the job, from towers to full scaffolding, and follow recognised working-at-height practice.

Fully insured

We carry insurance appropriate to our work, so you and your property are protected throughout the project.

Tidy, considerate sites

We keep sites clean and safe, protect your property and clear all waste on completion.
