Installer vetting
How we vet the people who'll stand on your roof.
The industry's dirty secret is that quality can feel like a lottery. Worpra is built to reduce that risk, so this page shows the checks rather than hiding behind a badge wall.
The protocol
The eight checks, in the order we run them.
Approval is earned in stages. Passing the paperwork check does not replace seeing the work or scoring what happens on Worpra jobs.
-
MCS certification
Current, relevant certification for the work being carried out. This is non-negotiable for Worpra jobs.
-
Customer protection evidence
We check the installer can support the consumer protections required for the job before they are approved for Worpra work.
-
Financial health
We read Companies House accounts. A firm that may not exist in year three cannot honour a workmanship warranty in year three.
-
Insurance
Public liability and professional indemnity are verified, not merely asserted.
-
References
Recent customers are called and asked the awkward questions: punctuality, workmanship, communication and aftercare.
-
Past work, in person
We inspect recent installs before a single Worpra job is offered.
-
Probation
First jobs are inspected before an installer earns more Worpra work.
-
Ongoing scoring
Future work is allocated on inspection results, punctuality and customer feedback. Good work gets more work.
Inspection
What we inspect on your job
The handover check covers fixings and weatherproofing, cable runs and isolation, consumer-unit work, commissioning readings, photos, MCS certificate, electrical certificate and DNO notification.
That is the practical difference between a marketplace and a managed job: someone checks the work before it disappears under paperwork.
| Roof | Fixings and weatherproofing |
|---|---|
| Electrics | Isolation and consumer-unit work |
| Commissioning | Readings and handover photos |
| Paperwork | Present before sign-off |
When we say no
A bad-fit job is not a lead to squeeze.
If your roof, shading or usage make the numbers poor, we will tell you and not take the job. A marketplace that will sell to anyone is just a salesman with extra steps.
Next step
Start with the numbers, then the survey.
Good work starts before the installer is chosen.
