Approved Contractors

Crabtree maintain a database of approved contractors that we instruct to carry out a variety of work on behalf of our clients. 

We are currently reviewing this database to ensure that all contractors have suitable health & safety arrangements in order to meet our own and our clients obligations under relevant legislation.

The vetting process will include:

• Obtaining references to ensure they are competent to do the work safely and to a high standard.
• Ensuring contractors hold up-to-date certificates of compliance and/or registration documents with statutory bodies.
• Ensuring all contractors hold appropriate insurance.
• Obtaining and approving health and safety policy documentation and information.
• Ensuring contractors have adequate resources.
• Ensuring that contractors provide good value for money and quality of service.

Going forward all Crabtree approved contractors will be vetted internally or will be pre-existing members of a scheme approved by the Government-backed Safety Schemes in Procurement (SSIP).
