Who we are 

BESCA has been established by the Heating and Ventilating Contractors' Association to act as an independent assessment and certification body for the building services industry.

The company was set up in response to the growing number of registration schemes required to satisfy Government initiatives such as Trustmark and new legislative requirements such as the Energy Assessor Schemes required by the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive and Competent Person Schemes allowing self-certification and notification work under the Building Regulations.

  • Energy Assessor Schemes for:
