In preparation

We are building these registers. Each one gets a link here when it opens.

  • BuildersBuilders for extensions, repairs and work on old stone houses. The registers to check include FMB and TrustMark.
  • HandymenSmall jobs about the house. Few handymen use a trade register, so the listings will rely on Companies House and TrustMark.

What “on a trade register” means

It is the share of listed firms that we found on at least one public trade register, such as NFRC or NICEIC, with a date. Some trades use registers more than others, so the share differs by trade. We never say a firm is not registered: a search can miss a firm that trades under another name.
