Everyone deserves recognition for a job well done, and plumbing is no different! That’s why the Heating Installer Awards was created, to recognise and celebrate plumbers and heating installers who deliver top quality work and brilliant service to their customers.
Now in its fourth year, the Heating Installer Awards champions excellence within the industry, and makes sure that those who deserve to be shouted about are! Our work has not been in vain, with many of those involved telling us that their businesses have benefited from being associated with the awards.
In honour of our fourth year, we’ve put together the top ways that we believe the awards can help plumbers and their businesses. Here they are…
- Positive perception – people think (and rightly so) that if you have won an award, been a runner up, or even got through the initial stages, then you can do a great job! You wouldn’t have been shortlisted without a decent level of skill, ability and customer service. As Huw Jenkins, last year’s runner up, put it: “Since being nominated for the awards my customers (new and existing) have a lot more faith in me.”
- Trust – in being associated with the awards, customers automatically have an increased level of trust in you, because you couldn’t have won an award without being trustworthy! Shaun Scott, current Heating Installer Awards champion, said: “People know they will get a good quality of work, they trust me and recommend me.”
- Recommendations – more business! As Shaun said, more people are recommending him and therefore he’s receiving more business. This can lead to more choice for you and your business, even giving you the opportunity to expand or take on an apprentice.
- Partnerships – by being associated with the Heating Installer Awards, entrants are able to engage with other plumbers and businesses that they may not previously have had contact with, including our great sponsors: Danfoss, Geberit, Glow-worm, Installer Magazine, Polypipe and Stelrad! This can lead to a host of new opportunities, from recommendations from peers to product trials from companies.
This year’s entries are open until 8th February, so if you or someone you know deserves all of the above, then let us know or enter directly here! We’d love to hear from you. You can also find us over on Twitter – @HIAwards
