At Surface Repair Group, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality, professional repair services that bring damaged surfaces back to life — whether it’s kitchen worktops, UPVC, tiles, or baths. But in a competitive industry, great workmanship alone isn’t always enough.
Clients increasingly want more than just a good job — they want assurance.
That’s why we made the decision to become NRTAUK Accredited.
What Is NRTAUK Accreditation?
NRTAUK is a growing national trade authority that offers industry-recognised accreditation built around its CORE Framework: Compliance, Operations, Risk, and Ethics. It’s a practical, no-nonsense approach to helping businesses like ours demonstrate professionalism, legal compliance, and high standards — without drowning in red tape.
Unlike other schemes, NRTAUK actually understands trades like ours. It’s not just about ticking boxes; it’s about helping us run better, safer, and more trustworthy businesses.
Why We Chose It
We chose NRTAUK because:
It gives our clients confidence that we’re compliant and qualified.
It helps us meet health & safety, employment, and data protection requirements with ease.
It looks great on tenders and quotes — especially when working with property developers, housing associations, or insurance clients.
We now have access to over 70 NOCN-endorsed online training courses, helping us upskill the team without taking time off the tools.
It also includes a downloadable compliance pack, risk assessment templates, and policies we can actually use. No more cobbling together documents from the internet.
What It’s Done for Our Business
Since becoming accredited, we’ve:
Won more contracts, especially with larger clients who want to see proof of compliance.
Improved internal systems, thanks to the NRTAUK guidance and CORE Framework.
Boosted our reputation as a professional, structured company — not “just another sole trader.”
Plus, being able to display the NRTAUK Accredited badge on our van and website has given us instant credibility.
Final Thoughts
If you’re in surface repair, decorating, maintenance or any trade where clients want to know you’re the real deal — we’d 100% recommend becoming NRTAUK Accredited.
It’s cost-effective, practical, and genuinely helpful — not just a logo for the sake of it.
