James Talman, Chief Executive of the NFRC, explained: “This year the
standard of entries was exceptional and the judges had a very hard time
whittling it down to create this spectacular shortlist.
“Our congratulations go to each and every one of those finalists who
should be proud of their achievement. We have some extremely talented,
dedicated and ambitious roofing professionals in the UK, and this goes
some way towards highlighting their achievements and showcasing best
practice and quality in the sector.
“We would like to wish everyone the very best of luck for the finals.”
The National Federation of Roofing
Contractors (NFRC), the host of the awards,
has teamed up with headline sponsor SIG
Roofing to celebrate all the good things that
roofing contractors do to help their local
communities and charities.
Janine Brady, SIG Roofing’s Marketing Manager,
said that the UK Roofing Awards excel when it
comes to showcasing projects that genuinely
demonstrate the very best of roofing, including
elements such as aesthetics, problem-solving,
health and safety, workmanship and
environmental standards.
However, she believes there is an opportunity to
recognise some of the great achievements of the
roofing community that often go unheard.
“As the leading specialist supplier of roofing and
services, the staff in our branches get to hear
about some of the fantastic things that their
roofing contractor customers get up to that so
often get overlooked,” explained Janine.

the NFRC

dimension to the awards and will allow us to
showcase both the excellent standards of roofing
projects completed each year and the way roofers
work so hard to help those in need.”
Amanda Brackey, Head of Marketing and
Communications at the NFRC, commented: “It’s
important that the UK Roofing Awards continually
evolve to reflect the achievements of the industry,
and a key part of that is listening to our partners,
who have some great ideas to continue making
the awards relevant to our sector.
“SIG Roofing has been the headline sponsor for
more than ten years and it’s a testament to their
commitment and the roofing community working
together that these awards keep going from
strength to strength.”
