REASSURINGLY COMPLIANT , SO LET THEM KNOW ABOUT IT
Icotherm has opted to partner with a new Approved Inspector ’ s firm , announces Anne-Marie Busch , Marketing Manager . This is not a decision that was made lightly she emphasises , but taken with customers in mind .
» “ WE NEED TO WORK WITH AN organisation that is prepared to go the extra step to ensure our roofs are appropriately checked when installed , and Ball & Berry Ltd can provide just that ,” explains Anne-Marie .
The aim of certifying a roof system for building control compliancy is a twofold solution :
1 . The systems house wants to ensure their roof is up to the task , whilst providing you , the installer , with a solution that will make your work easier when getting your installation building control approved . 2 . The other important role of the compliancy certification and having a roof registered is to give the homeowner the reassurance that their roof is a genuine product . Ball & Berry Ltd will do this for us ; as part of the application process they will check the original Icotherm paperwork and register the roof reference , allowing us to double check it is indeed a roof we have manufactured .
“ This protects our customers against competitors claiming to use a high specification roof like Icotherm ’ s when in fact they are not . It also protects Icotherm ’ s product and brand by ensuring only genuine products are sold under our name .”
