Scheme but not complying
with the new rules would not
qualify for self-assessment.
He added: “It is quick and
easy for installers to register a HomePro IBG and
they are widely accepted by
self-assessment bodies such
as FENSA and CERTASS.
If installers take just a few
moments to learn the new
regs, they can make the most
of our IBGs but any installer
who gets it wrong may risk
not being able to register
their work by self-assessment.
“Like any new legislation, it
may take a little time for people to get used to it but once
they have had time to absorb
a few new working practices, everything should fall
into place naturally. And of
course, any of our customers
are welcome to contact us at
any time if they need further
clarification.”
Some of the main
changes at a glance:
• A mandatory IBG covering the product guarantee
(see: www.homepro.com/
HomeProInsurance )
• The IBG to include mandatory cover against breaches
of all applicable aspects of
Building Regulations (not
just Part L).
• Any IBG not incorporating
these changes by the June
deadline will not qualify to
register installations under
self-assessment.
• A MTC qualified installer
will need to be present
at every installation. Also
anyone carrying out a
survey will also need to be
assessed (unless they can
show they are under the
supervision of a competent
surveyor).
