About the accreditation

Purdy Contracts is an accredited member of the Considerate Constructors Scheme which is the national initiative, set up by the construction industry, to improve its image.

Sites and companies like Purdy Contracts that register with the Scheme are monitored against a Code of Considerate Practice, designed to encourage best practice beyond statutory requirements.

The Scheme is concerned about any area of construction activity that may have a direct or indirect impact on the image of the industry as a whole. The main areas of concern fall into three categories: the general public, the workforce and the environment.

The construction industry has a huge impact on all our lives, with most construction work in sensitive locations. If all construction sites and companies presented an image of competent management, efficiency, awareness of environmental issues and above all neighbourliness, then they would become a positive advertisement, not just for themselves but for the industry as a whole.

The Codes of Considerate Practice commit those sites and companies registered with the Scheme to be considerate and good neighbours, as well as respectful, environmentally conscious, responsible and accountable. Registered sites and companies must also consider their appearance and safety.
