Steven A. Ramaekers, CR

NARI certification is a challenging process, requiring extensive knowledge of the industry and a commitment to professional conduct. Even highly experienced and skilled remodelers find the screening and testing process formidable.

Homeowners can gain a sense of security and trust knowing that the NARI certified remodeling professional they hire has:

  • Subjected himself or herself, their work, and their past professional conduct to the scrutiny of NARI’s Certification Board. Each certification candidate must provide an outline – and receive an acceptable review – detailing their hands-on experience, industry training, involvement in continuing education, technical skills, practices in business management, as well as association and community service.
  • Committed to intensive study on a broad range of critical industry issues. Most certification candidates participate in a formal study group and spend eight to twelve weeks studying in preparation for the one day written certification exam.
  • Successfully completed a comprehensive written examination covering critical subject areas such as sound business management practices, knowledge of building codes and construction law, plans and specifications, proper and safe use of tools and equipment, safety, standards of practice, math, and several special skill areas.

Once awarded their certification, NARI certified remodeling professionals must meet annual recertification requirements involving continuing education and participation in industry related programs.

NARI Certification – competence, professionalism, and high ethical standards

WHO ARE NARI CERTIFIED REMODELING PROFESSIONALS?

NARI’s certification program recognizes the skills and achievements of three distinct groups of remodeling professionals of particular interest to homeowners: Certified Remodelers (CR's), Certified Remodeler Specialists (CRS's), and Certified Lead Carpenters (CLC's).

  • Certified Remodelers are professional remodelers who provide a full range of remodeling services. To become a Certified Remodeler, candidates must possess skill and knowledge in a broad range of business management and technical skill areas.
  • Certified Remodeler Specialists are professional remodelers who focus on a specific type of work and serve the needs of homeowners interested in that particular area of technical excellence, such as concrete and masonry work, electrical work, insulation, mechanical systems, plumbing systems, roofing, and siding.
  • NARI Certified Lead Carpenters are the hands-un field personnel who oversee every aspect of the project – customer satisfaction, personnel management, administration, etc. – while working on the project.

The screening and certification process is essentially the same for all of NARI’s certification designations. And all NARI certified remodeling professionals have pledged to abide by NARI’s strict Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics. Only the most dedicated professional remodelers can become certified by NARI.

Its no wonder homeowners feel more comfortable relying on remodelers who have earned NARI certification.
