FMB

The Federation of Master Builders (FMB) is the largest trade association in the UK construction industry, representing the interests of small to medium-sized building companies. They operate locally across England, Northern Ireland, Scotland, and Wales to support their members. The FMB has a history of supporting building companies since 1941 and is run by its members for its members. They advocate for members at national and local levels, promote continuous improvement, and recognize quality through the FMB badge. The organization also offers services such as dispute resolution, FMB insurance, and runs the Master Builder Awards to showcase excellence. Additionally, they work with strategic, association, charity, and commercial partners to foster collaboration and support the industry. They also publish reports and guides for builders, including surveys on the state of trade and housing delivery challenges.
