The FMB has responded to the government\u2019s Single Construction Regulator consultation, urging ministers to introduce licensing to raise standards and protect consumers<\/h2>\n

The Federation of Master Builders (FMB) has reiterated calls for licensing building companies in its offical response to the government’s consultation on the Single Construction Regulator.<\/p>\n

First presented as a recommendation of the Grenfell Inquiry’s phase two report<\/a>, a single construction regulator would bring together the authorities and organisations scrutinising buildings, construction products, professions and digital information into a single, more coherent system.<\/p>\n

The consultation document<\/a> is seeking responses from stakeholders and interested industry parties until 20 March 2026.<\/p>\n

A chance to fill gaps in building safety that have long gone ignored<\/h3>\n

While the proposed outcomes for the new system are welcome, the FMB has warned, they will only be delivered in practice if there is a clear baseline for building companies to operate – something that the scope of the Regulator can be expanded to.<\/p>\n

Brian Berry, chief executive of the FMB commented: \u201cCreating a Single Construction Regulator is an opportunity to fix long\u2011standing weaknesses in how the construction industry is regulated. The landscape has vast gaps of no regulation for those working in the industry, currently filled by halfway house measures in an attempt to boost consumer trust. We support the Government\u2019s focus on safety, trust, and higher standards, but these outcomes will not be achieved unless there is clear accountability and a level playing field for responsible builders.\u201d<\/p>\n

Berry continued: \u201cGood builders are being undercut by rogue traders who operate with little oversight and leave consumers facing serious financial and emotional harm. A mandatory licensing system, which the Regulator can be expanded in scope to accommodate, would set a clear baseline for competence and professionalism, make enforcement more effective, and give homeowners confidence about who they are letting into their homes. Our response shows how licensing can be designed to work for SMEs, while targeting poor practice and raising standards across the industry.\u201d<\/p>\n
