Buy With Confidence Derby City Council Approved Contractor

Derbyshire Fascias have become the first Fascia, Soffit, Guttering & Firestone Rubber Roof installer in Derby to be officially approved by Derby City Council Trading Standards Department via its ‘Buy with Confidence’ scheme.

The Buy with Confidence scheme forms part of a nationally recognised Trading Standards initiative, which aims to establish high standards of trading and provide local consumers with a reliable source of trustworthy local businesses vetted and approved by Trading Standards.

Membership of the Buy with Confidence scheme is not granted lightly, each member business will have undergone a strict vetting procedure before being granted membership. This includes research into their trading history, financial background, a criminal records check and a thorough audit of their business systems made by a Trading Standards Officer. Each business also provides access to their customer records and a selection are chosen at random by the auditing officer to write to and get their opinion on the service they received.

Only if all the scheme requirements are met will a business be granted membership and their conduct will continue to be monitored thereafter.

Membership is not given lightly and not everyone gets in.

Consumers who buy from a Buy with Confidence member have the peace of mind that they are dealing with a reliable and trustworthy local business that has been approved by Trading Standards and operates in a legal, honest and fair way.

This is yet another milestone for the company.

Derbyshire Fascias have been checked, vetted and approved by Derby City Council Trading Standards Department and also Derbyshire County Councils Trading Standards Department and our name has been added to their exclusive list of Trusted Traders.

The Trusted Traders scheme is run in conjunction with the Derbyshire County Council Trading Standards Department with the aim of combating rogue traders whilst, at the same time, promoting businesses and traders who do a good job at a fair price.

Derbyshire Fascias is proud to meet these criteria and you can therefore be assured of a first-class job and our personal attention at all times.

The British Board of Agrément is an independent government sponsored body which carries out rigorous testing on many building products. This coveted approval means our products pass one of the UK’s and Europe’s most stringent testing procedures. Something even one of the biggest national names in the industry can’t claim.

The BBA’s Agrément Certificates have been providing authoritative and independent information on the performance of building products for over 30 years. Every Agrément Certificate contains important data on durability, installation and compliance with Building Regulations, not just in England and Wales, but in Scotland and Northern Ireland, too.

Here at Derbyshire fascias we are proud to be associated with eurocell Britain’s biggest manufacturer of PVCu profiles, based here in Derbyshire.

There comprehensive range of products are all manufactured to the same standard colour, so all the ancillary profiles will match perfectly unlike other suppliers who buy different profiles from different manufacturers, which results in different shades of white.

All fascias boards are 18mm thick which represent an exact match for replacing Britain’s tiring wooden fascias, most of our competitors range from 10mm to 16mm.
