For qualified installers

Qualified to MCS-certified - done with you

Passing the exam makes you qualified. Becoming an MCS-certified installer takes five more applications - each easy to get wrong, each costly when you do. We guide you through every one, in the right order, first time. From £299.

Before we start

You should already have (1) passed the RPL Level 3 ASHP knowledge exam and (2) completed your course requirements. Not there yet? Start with the exam prep →

The five stages we guide you through

Each stage has its own documents and details. We help with all of them - the correct order, exactly what each body needs, help completing the long application forms, where a wrong answer can cost you time and money, and a realistic timeline.

1

Company setup

Register the business correctly at Companies House - the foundation everything else attaches to.

2

Insurance

The right cover at the right level for heat-pump installation work.

3

QMS software

A Quality Management System that satisfies the certification framework.

4

Consumer Code membership

Join an approved consumer code and meet its requirements.

5

MCS registration

Register under the MCS certification framework - the final step to becoming a certified installer. We can also help you prepare for the MCS Installer Onboarding (Call Assessment), a 15-minute call.

What the process costs (and what's not our fee)

Only our consulting fee (from £299, excl. VAT) is ours. The figures below are paid directly to external bodies (Companies House, insurers, your QMS provider, the consumer code and the MCS certification body). They are indicative, incl. VAT, and set by those providers.

ItemBasisCost
Company setupone-off£100
Insuranceper year£500 – £900*
QMS softwareper year£750
Consumer Code - joining feeone-off£120
Consumer Code - membershipper year£358.80
MCS registrationper year£996

Estimated first-year total roughly £2,825 – £3,225 (one-off £220 + recurring, incl. insurance). *Insurance varies with cover level, turnover and claims history. Figures subject to change by the relevant provider. Knowing the costs is the easy part - the consultation covers the correct order, the exact documents and a realistic timeline, so you get it right first time.

What we don't do

MCS involves three assessments: an onboarding call, a desk assessment and a site assessment. We prep you for the first one - the MCS Installer Onboarding (Call Assessment). We don't carry out or prepare for the desk and site assessments - those sit with your certification body, not us. The best preparation for those is theory, which is exactly what our exam-prep platform is built to give you.

Timeline

The whole process typically takes around 2–3 months, depending on how quickly the external bodies process each application.

FAQ

Who is this for?+

Installers who have already passed the RPL Level 3 ASHP knowledge exam and completed their course requirements (typically Air Source Heat Pumps, Water Regulations and Unvented G3). Consulting takes you from qualified to MCS-certified.

Do you submit the applications for me?+

No. This is done-with-you guidance. Every stage has its own documents and long application forms - we help you complete them all, where a wrong answer can cost you time and money, but the applications are submitted by you to the external bodies.

Do you handle the assessments?+

MCS involves three assessments: an onboarding call, a desk assessment and a site assessment. We prep you for the onboarding call - the MCS Installer Onboarding (Call Assessment), a 15-minute call. The desk and site assessments are carried out by your certification body, not us; the best preparation for those is theory, via our exam-prep platform.

How long does it take?+

Typically around 2–3 months end to end. The exact timeline depends on how fast the external bodies process each application.
