Home-improvement specialist Clearview Home Improvements has received the nationally recognised CHAS (The Contractor’s Health and Safety Scheme) accreditation as part of its ongoing commitment to deliver excellence in the sector.

CHAS offers third-party accreditation to ensure that its service focuses on improving health and safety.

Clearview has been awarded the Principal Contractor status, which places the North West installer of windows, doors and living spaces alongside major housebuilders and giants of the construction sector as a leader in its field.

“This is a fantastic achievement for the company,” begins Richard Ashley, Clearview’s Contracts Director.

“It demonstrates to homeowners that our practices are second-to-none and that when we work on their properties, we do so in a regulated and safe manner. We’re one of a handful of companies in our field with this leading accreditation.

Richard continues: “And, it’s only the beginning of an ongoing process to ensure that Clearview is the leader regarding quality and health and safety within the fenestration and construction sectors.”

To gain the accreditation, Cleaview has to undergo a rigorous, 20-point assessment of its existing Health and Safety practices, specifically regarding staff training, best practice policies and live site audits.

Becoming CHAS accredited follows after Clearview was named the Installer of the Year at the G-Awards, the glass and glazing sector’s most prestigious awards ceremony.

“It has been a fantastic couple of months for Clearview. We take pride in this receiving and gaining these independently assessed awards and certifications,” adds Richard.

“They are proof of the quality of work and service that Clearview provides and are a real benefit to staff and customers alike.”
