Our Accreditations & What They Mean for You
Choosing the right team to work on your home is a big decision. You need to know the work will be done to the highest standards — safely, legally, and beautifully. At Excel, we believe in accountability, transparency, and doing things properly.
That’s why we’re proud to hold accreditations from the UK’s most respected building and consumer bodies.
Each accreditation we hold represents more than a badge — it’s a promise. A promise that we follow best practices, meet rigorous standards, and put our clients’ interests first. Because when you’re creating a space as personal as a home, nothing
less will do
Outstanding Builder of the Year 2025
Chartered Institute of Building (CIOB)
The CIOB sets global standards for construction management and professionalism. Our accreditation with the CIOB reflects our commitment to integrity, competence, and continuous improvement at every stage of your project.
Why it matters: You benefit from clear processes, careful planning, and a team that’s trained to deliver work that lasts
Federation of Master Builders (FMB)
The FMB is the UK’s largest trade association for construction professionals, known for its strict vetting and quality benchmarks. As a member, Excel is independently inspected and approved — giving you added confidence that our workmanship meets (and often exceeds) industry expectations.
Why it matters: You’re working with a team that’s held to account on everything from structural work to customer service
Which? Trusted Trader
Which? has been one of the UK’s most respected consumer organisations for over 60 years. Their Trusted Trader scheme is known for rigorous checks, honest reviews, and ongoing customer feedback monitoring.
Why it matters: You’re choosing a builder with a proven record for quality, trust, and customer satisfaction.
Local Authority Building Control (LABC)
Being recognised by the LABC means our designs and builds are in line with national building regulations. We work closely with local authorities to ensure compliance, safety, and structural excellence.
Why it matters: Peace of mind that your home is compliant, safe, and built to approved standards from day one.
Trustmark
TrustMark is the only government-endorsed scheme for tradespeople. It ensures we operate responsibly, use contracts that protect consumers, and offer warranties that give genuine aftercare support.
Why it matters: You’re protected not just during your project, but after — with guaranteed workmanship and support.
A Commitment to Quality That Lasts
Accreditations don’t define the work we do — but they do reflect the standards we hold ourselves to. From sunrooms to kitchens, bedrooms to full renovations, everything we create is built to stand the test of time. Because for us, great design isn’t just about how a space looks — it’s about how it works, how it feels, and how well it lasts.
That’s the Excel difference.
