For consumers
Assures hiring of qualified, insured, and regulated professionals.
Search the CIRI register to ensure the builder, contractor, or tradesperson you plan to hire is properly registered, meets legal standards, and complies with building regulations. Registered providers must have insurance, tax compliance, and follow a code of practice.
From 2026 onward, only CIRI-registered providers can legally carry out certain building works. Checking the register helps you avoid hiring someone who isn’t compliant.
