Qualifications of tradesmen

Posted by Ronald Coleman, on
I would like to know if the tradesmen you list are genuinely qualified tradesmen in there field. Do they all have certified qualifications that are credible.

Hi Ronald, You can find info on our screening practices at: ratedpeople(dot)com/c/help#do-you-screen I'd stress that not all trades require a specific qualification - a trade such as a heating engineer working with gas requires a valid GasSafe qualification and we do not let heating engineers on our site without valid company GasSafe certification numbers. We always encourage homeowners like yourself to conduct additional checks, following the advice in our homeowner checklist which you can find at: ratedpeople(dot)com/c/homeowner-checklist. This is because while we conduct an industry-leading level of checking, as a service marketplace, the tradespeople on our site are not direct employees of our company. If you have any further questions, our Customer care team can help. You can reach them through ratedpeople(dot)com/contact-us. Thanks, Natalie Ask an expert team
