Hi - What part of the UK do you work in and why do you need them Eleanor?

Hello Eleanor.

Did you get to work with DaveSparks at all? That would have been good experience.

I would choose Stroma as they are a lot cheaper than all the other schemes and offer exactly the same service so it's an easy decision really. Is there a reason why you have left out the NICEIC? The only reason why I could see to go with the NICEIC is if you have a lot of work from one company or perhaps an estate agent (doing EICR's) that stipulate you are NICEIC registered but that is unlikely.

I thought I read somewhere that both the scams mentioned had become one unit

First question are you doing enough business to warrant joining a scam.
You can do around 50% of all domestic installation without initially having to join.
Obviously once you start doing full rewires you will require scam membership.
Keep us posted which route you choose...

I don’t think it’s viablle to do domestic work, without being in a scheme.

Unless your just putting up lights from Ikea.

And that is harder than joining a scheme. Stroma for me as they are very thorough and well priced. Napit is good as well but I imagine starting up you want to save on costs. NICEIC is the de facto one to go with but it should not be so. The one thing I would say regarding image, is that Stroma is often conflated with Stoma in some peoples mind.
