Why Choose NFRC Roofers
Trusted roofing by GNR Roofing — an NFRC member you can rely on.
When it comes to roofing, quality, compliance and professionalism are non-negotiable. At GNR Roofing, we are proud to be NFRC roofers, a distinction that helps set us apart from general contractors listed on lead-generation sites such as Checkatrade or MyBuilder.
As a member of the National Federation of Roofing Contractors (NFRC), we offer customers the reassurance that our work is delivered with reference to recognised roofing practice, relevant British Standards and appropriate health and safety expectations.
For technical roofing work, this means understanding not only the covering itself, but the relevant standards behind the installation — including BS 5534 for slating and tiling, BS 6229 for flat roofing, BS 6915 for leadwork and Building Regulations for roofing work.

What are NFRC Roofers?
The National Federation of Roofing Contractors (NFRC) is a leading UK roofing trade association. Its role is to support quality, professionalism, competence and industry standards across roofing disciplines.
- NFRC members operate to a Code of Practice
- Members are subject to vetting and inspection processes
- Members are expected to work with regard to quality, safety and compliance
NFRC roofers must demonstrate appropriate standards across health and safety, insurance, skills and business practice. It is not simply a marketing badge; it is a professional commitment.

At GNR Roofing, our membership of the NFRC reflects our commitment to craftsmanship, safety and professional roofing delivery. Unlike general lead-generation platforms, NFRC membership is linked to industry expectations, vetting and continuing compliance.
As one of Yorkshire’s established specialist roofing contractors, GNR Roofing is:
- Fully insured
- Professionally trained and experienced
- Subject to external expectations around workmanship and compliance

Standards we regularly reference
Why NFRC Roofers Are Different from Checkatrade or MyBuilder Listings
While online directories such as Checkatrade, Rated People and MyBuilder can introduce customers to contractors, it is important to understand the difference between a lead-generation platform and a roofing-specific trade federation.
| Criteria | NFRC Roofers, such as GNR Roofing | Checkatrade/MyBuilder Contractors |
|---|---|---|
| Trade Accreditation | Roofing-specific trade membership and vetting | Generally platform listing and customer review based |
| Vetting Process | Insurance checks, business checks and workmanship expectations | Varies by platform and contractor |
| Code of Practice | NFRC Code of Practice applies | Platform terms apply, not roofing-specific standards |
| Technical Standards | Expected to understand relevant British Standards such as BS 5534 and BS 6229 | Not necessarily a membership requirement |
| Dispute Resolution | NFRC procedures may be available | Usually platform support and review mechanisms |
| Workmanship Warranty | Workmanship warranties and insurance-backed routes may be available where applicable | Depends on individual contractor |
| Professional Status | Recognised roofing specialist | May include general builders or multi-trade contractors |
Choosing an NFRC roofer means choosing a contractor operating within a roofing-specific professional framework, not just a business profile online.
NFRC Vetting
The NFRC Vetting Process
To become and remain a member of the NFRC, contractors like GNR Roofing must pass vetting and inspection processes, which may include:
- Site inspections by NFRC technical officers
- Verification of insurance, including Employers’ Liability and Public Liability
- Financial health checks via credit agencies
- Review of past and ongoing projects
- Health and Safety compliance audits
- References from satisfied clients and peers
This process helps ensure that NFRC roofers like GNR Roofing are trusted professionals, not simply paying to appear on a lead-generation platform.
