Bradstone explains why you should join its Assured Installer community
For over a decade now at Bradstone, we have been all about supporting skilled installers through the creation of the Assured Installer Scheme. The support of a brand that proudly champions its landscapers, is incredibly advantageous for installers. With 65 years of industry experience and a reputation for responsible material sourcing, along with prestigious awards, you can feel confident in the support you will get.
Going beyond a simple certification, being part of this group offers a host of benefits that can enhance your expertise and businesses. Through private forums and collaborative projects, Bradstone has created a vibrant community where you can share ideas and access support from fellow members. Having grown to an impressive 218 members, find out exactly why you should consider joining the Assured Installer Scheme.
Upskilling
By joining, installers can gain access to a host of opportunities and support that will massively contribute to their professional growth. Part of the scheme allows members to collect points which can now be redeemed with courses by TASK and accreditations – a great way to develop new skills. This ensures that members stay abreast of the latest industry trends, techniques, and technologies.
Shine Bright with Bradstone Recognition
A key benefit of the Bradstone Assured Installer Scheme is the Assured Awards. Being part of this programme, you have the chance to showcase your skills and stand out amongst peers. Winning an award can bring numerous benefits, including press exposure, and industry recognition, and a logo that highlights you as ‘Installer of the Year’. This type of acknowledgement not only increases your credibility with customers, but also sets you apart in the current market.
Boost Your Marketing
We understand that marketing support is often difficult to come by, but also extremely valuable for members. From featuring your profile on the Bradstone website, to showcasing your projects across our social media platforms and brochures, we provide you with all the visibility needed to generate leads and promote your work effectively. This also includes personalised brochures and branded workwear to help solidify that trusted professional image your customers look for.
Extra Product Support
Our support doesn’t end with membership. We offer trusted help through an expert field-based technical and project team, covering everything from service, product availability, order processing, installation assistance, and product specification. A key benefit of this is that you can reserve stock for any upcoming projects which remove the risk of product unavailability, helping you to complete projects on time.
One unique benefit is the opportunity to be the first in the industry to see new products before they have officially launched. Included in this are free sample boxes to show potential clients, and training sessions on the new products with laying techniques. Guaranteeing all Assured Installers are at the top of their game is a key priority for us, which is why we also send any important industry updates and latest techniques to all members, keeping you well equipped to deliver outstanding results.
Free Guarantee
If you’ve been accredited through the scheme, you can apply for a 5-year guarantee on the installation of the manufacturer’s products for reasonable domestic use, along with a 10-year product guarantee, providing that extra layer of security for both you and your clients peace of mind. With the added benefit of knowing you’re personally endorsed by a brand renowned for its high-quality products.
Neil Bills, General Manager at Bradstone says: “We believe in rewarding our members with unparalleled benefits. For us this is not just a certification, it’s a partnership that empowers professionals to deliver excellence in every project. We want to grow installer presence in local areas, build confidence and trust amongst prospective customers, and provide all the support that is needed to create a thriving community of skilled installers.”
The Bradstone Assured Installer Scheme stands as a support system for paving and landscaping professionals. With a focus on sharing expertise, affordable membership, and an array of benefits, the scheme is not just a membership; it’s a community of likeminded installers that you can be a part of.
Membership costs are £360 for one year and £540 for two years.
