For businesses with subcontractors or staff

Local compliance jobs for your team of engineers

Join RentalComply as one business and send your subcontractors or staff to the jobs. You set the prices and the area, landlords book your business, and you choose who attends. Each person is checked on their own ID, DBS and accreditation before they go to a job.

How team accounts work

One business, your whole team

  • Booked as one business

    Landlords see your business, your prices and your reviews, and book you like any engineer.

  • You choose who attends

    Assign an approved team member to each job from your bookings. The landlord sees who is coming and their registration, such as their Gas Safe number.

  • Only services your team covers

    You can be booked for a service while at least one approved team member is accredited for it, so landlords never book work nobody on your team can do.

  • Documents kept in date

    We remind you before anyone's DBS or accreditation runs out. If an accreditation expires, that person can't be sent to those services (or to any job, if it's their DBS) until a new one is uploaded and checked.

Requirements

What you'll need to join

From your business

  • Your business details

    Business name, mobile number and the address you work from, plus your prices, availability and travel radius.

  • Your photo ID

    For the account holder - a passport or driving licence.

  • Public liability insurance for the team

    At least £2 million of cover, and you confirm the policy covers the subcontractors or staff you send.

  • A UK bank account

    Connected through Stripe. Every job your team does is paid to your business, and you pay your people as you normally would.

From each person who attends

  • Their own photo ID

    So we know who is going into the property.

  • Their own DBS certificate

    Can't be over 3 years old (from the issue date). We remind you before it runs out.

  • Their own accreditation

    For each service they attend - for example their own Gas Safe registration for gas safety checks. A team member can only be sent to jobs they are accredited for.

The accreditations we accept for each service are listed on the trade pages: electricians, gas engineers, energy assessors, fire risk assessors, legionella assessors and plumbers. Read the full engineer agreement.

Why join

Your prices, your hours, paid weekly

  • Keep 100% of your price

    You set your own price for each service - by property size, or for gas, PAT and plumbing by the number of appliances, items or the job. Our fee is added on top for the customer, never taken from your price.

  • Paid every Monday

    Customers are charged when you accept their booking. Each completed job is paid to your bank by Stripe the Monday after, once you have uploaded the certificate.

  • Your hours, your area

    Set your weekly availability and how far you travel, from 5 to 100 miles. Customers can only book the slots you open.

  • Free to join

    No subscription, no monthly fee and no paying for leads.

How you get work

From booking to payment

  1. 1

    A landlord searches their postcode

    Landlords, letting agents and homeowners enter the property postcode and the service they need.

  2. 2

    They see you if you cover the area

    They see your profile, price, reviews and distance if the property is within your travel radius.

  3. 3

    They book, and you accept

    They choose a free slot from your availability and their card is held. You get a notification and have up to 12 hours to accept - accepting charges the customer and confirms the job.

  4. 4

    You do the job and upload the certificate

    Message the customer through the platform if you need to. Upload the certificate when the job is done, and it is paid the following Monday.

How many jobs you get depends on demand in your area, your prices and your reviews. We don't promise a set number of jobs.

FAQs

Questions from businesses with a team

Do my subcontractors need their own RentalComply accounts?

No. Your business has the account. You add each person yourself, or send them an upload link so they add their own documents - no account needed, and the link works for 14 days.

Who gets paid - my business or the subcontractor?

Your business. Each completed job is paid to your business's bank through Stripe the Monday after its certificate is uploaded. How you pay your team is between you and them.

Does every team member need to be Gas Safe registered or accredited?

Each person needs the accreditation for the services they attend, in their own name. Someone with only PAT testing can be sent to PAT jobs, but not EICRs or gas safety checks.

Does my insurance need to cover my team?

Yes. Your public liability insurance (at least £2 million) must cover the subcontractors or staff you send to jobs, and you confirm this when you apply.

Can I add people after I'm approved?

Yes. Add new team members at any time from the Your Team page. Each new person is checked before they can attend jobs. Changing a person's ID, DBS or accreditation sends them for checking again.

I already work on RentalComply on my own. Can I switch to a team?

Yes. On the Your Team page in your dashboard, confirm your insurance covers your team and request a team account. Our team switches it over and you can start adding people.

Does it cost anything to join RentalComply?

No. Joining is free, with no subscription or lead fees. Our fee is added on top of your price and paid by the customer, so you receive the full price you set.

How and when do I get paid?

Customers are charged when you accept their booking. Once you complete a job and upload its certificate, the payment goes to your bank through Stripe in the Monday payout run. If you upload the certificate after that Monday's run, the job is paid the Monday after.

How do I get jobs?

Landlords and agents search by postcode and book engineers whose travel radius covers the property. They choose a slot from the availability you set, and you accept the booking request from your dashboard within 12 hours. We can't promise a set number of jobs. It depends on demand in your area and on your prices and reviews.

How long does verification take?

Our team usually reviews new engineers within 1–2 business days of a complete application. We check your accreditation with the scheme provider and review your insurance, DBS and ID.
