What is Install Pros® Certified?
Install Pros® Certified is a selective, standards-led accreditation and community for smart installers - covering networking, security, CCTV, automation, satellite broadband, AV and golf simulators. Earn the badge, feature in our rated directory, and get a steady pipeline of quality jobs.
We hold every job to clear workmanship, safety and customer care criteria. That means clean cabling, correct labelling, documented testing, respectful conduct in the home, and tidy handover with simple instructions. Ratings matter: keep standards high and the best work keeps coming.
Who can be an Install Pro?
Sole Traders
Independent engineers and subcontractors who want consistent, well‑scoped work without the race to the bottom or all the faff of securing work.
Installation Teams
Local or nationwide, small and large teams who value brand reputation, clear SLAs and a steady pipeline of work to grow their business.
Upskillers
Experienced pros looking to add more smart home services to their skill set - we provide training pathways to help you level up your services.
Does this feedback sound familiar?
If that's a yes and you're used to five star feedback - you could be a great fit for our certification.
Why join the Install Pros® team?
We take care of everything before and after the install so you can focus on the job.
Premium badge & reputation.
Show the Install Pros® Certified mark across your profiles, quotes and vehicles. Customers know it stands for vetted professionals and tidy, on‑time installs.
A steady stream of work.
We market nationally so you don’t have to. You’ll receive matched jobs in your service area, filtered to your skills and availability without having to lift a finger.
Training & upskilling.
From networking basics to advanced automation and AV, we provide the training required to meet our standard — including mentored pilot jobs.
Brand kit & increased visibility.
Get profile pages with your portfolio, verified ratings, services list and coverage map. Apparel and vehicle signage are included so you look sharp on‑site.
Support that has your back.
Engineer support line, technical guides, job checklists and rapid escalation if something’s off. We’re partners, not just a job board. We also handle all customer support!
Fair terms & prompt payment.
Transparent scopes, agreed rates and fast payment on completed work unless longer payment terms agreed. Exclusivity rates in specific regions apply.
Higher value jobs, less admin.
We do the pre‑work so you don’t have to: we generate and qualify the customer, run a virtual survey (and book an on site survey if required), gather all job information and spec, handle upsells, schedule the visit and keep the customer informed. We also collect payment and provide aftercare and support for each service. You turn up, deliver to a high standard and get paid - our portal covers paperwork, RAMS templates, sign‑offs and customer comms.
