About us

Certsure provides industry-leading certification schemes and support to the building services sector. These services are delivered through the NICEIC brand.

For almost 70 years, NICEIC has been the UK’s largest certification body for electrical businesses with over 40,000 currently certified with us. As the industry leader, we drive the highest standards of competence and safety.

We assess, certify and train electricians, plumbers, renewable energy installers, and gas and heating engineers. To become certified, businesses must demonstrate their compliance with technical standards and industry best-practice through rigorous assessments and continuing professional development.

Trade professionals look to us for certification and technical leadership, and value the credibility our name gives theirs. We provide ongoing advice and support and list their businesses on our online ‘Find a trusted NICEIC tradesperson’ tool.

We help build public trust in trade professionals – and we never compromise on that trust. We work alongside government and industry to shape policy and drive standards. Many UK businesses, government organisations, local authorities and landlords will only work with NICEIC-certified businesses.

If you think this is the job for you, then we’d be delighted to hear from you.
