You can register your business now. Approved Installer applications will open once our assessment process is in place.

Registered Installer

For businesses that install CORE products, or plan to use them on future projects.

  • Tell us about your business, coverage area and product interests.
  • Use our installation guides, technical resources and product advice.
  • Keep a record of your CORE installations if you plan to apply for approval.

We will check your business details and confirm your registration. Registered status does not mean we have assessed or endorsed your workmanship.

Approved Installer

Applications are not open yet. Approval will involve a separate assessment for Registered Installers, covering:

  • Evidence from completed CORE projects.
  • Customer references and appropriate business insurance.
  • A technical review for the CORE products you install, with ongoing checks.

We will publish the full criteria and application details before applications open. Registration does not automatically lead to approval.

  2. Keep supporting documentsKeep relevant insurance documents and ask customers whether they would be willing to provide a reference.
  3. Apply when applications openCheck the published criteria before applying. We will explain what to submit and how the assessment works.

Register your business.

Tell us about your business, the areas you cover and the CORE products you install or would like to use. You do not need a website or previous CORE projects to register.

We will review your business details and contact you to confirm your registration or ask for any missing information. Please wait for confirmation before describing your business as a CORE Registered Installer.

Registration does not include Approved Installer status, a listing in our installer finder or guaranteed referrals. It is not a guarantee of workmanship. Customers appoint and contract with installers directly.

We use and store your details to manage your registration and respond to you. Registration is not a subscription to general marketing emails. Read our privacy policy.

We will use this address to contact you about your registration.

Your business base postcode and the towns, counties or regions you cover. A full address is not needed at this stage.

No website yet? You can still register. Add a business profile link if you have one.

For example: landscaping, groundworks, driveways, pathways or metal edging.

For example: gravel stabilisation, landscape edging or tree root protection. If you are unsure, tell us what you install.

Common questions.

What is the difference between Registered and Approved?

Registered means CORE has confirmed your business registration in the network. It does not mean CORE has assessed or approved your workmanship. Approved will be a separate status awarded only after the relevant assessment process has been completed.

Do I need a website or previous CORE jobs?

No. You can register without a website or previous CORE installations. A website or business social profile is useful if you have one. You will need evidence of completed work when you apply for approval.

Can I apply to become Approved now?

Not yet. You can register now and keep a record of your CORE projects. We will publish the criteria and application details when the assessment process is ready.

Does registration guarantee work or a directory listing?

No. Registration does not guarantee referrals, exclusivity or a public directory listing. Any listing, introduction or use of CORE installer branding must be agreed separately with CORE.

Is this the same as a CORE trade account?

No. Installer registration and a trade account are separate. If you want to purchase through CORE TRADE, request a trade account here.

What about Vuba resin installation?

Vuba has a separate installer scheme. Registering with CORE does not give you Vuba Approved or Elite status. Visit our resin installer page for more information.

I am already listed as a CORE installer. Do I need to start again?

Contact the team before submitting another registration. We can check your existing record, update your business details and explain your current status.
