NRSWA Training for Property Maintenance Companies

NRSWA Training for Property Maintenance Companies

NRSWA Streetworks training for property maintenance companies, building repair contractors and external works teams. Nationwide courses for operatives and supervisors, with flexible group training options.

Streetworks Qualifications for Property Maintenance & Repair Teams

Property maintenance contractors are often responsible for much more than repairs inside a building. External maintenance, drainage repairs, service connections and access improvements can sometimes involve work extending onto public footways, roads or other areas of the highway. When these activities fall within Streetworks requirements, having employees with the appropriate qualifications is essential. Whether your team is excavating to repair underground services, reinstating a footway or managing temporary pedestrian access around works, the right training helps support safe and compliant operations. We provide NRSWA Streetworks training for property maintenance companies throughout the UK, helping businesses arrange qualifications for employees involved in relevant highway and utility works. Our courses are suitable for individual operatives, maintenance supervisors and contractors managing teams across multiple properties or maintenance contracts.

Property maintenance work rarely follows a fixed schedule. Emergency repairs, planned maintenance programmes and ongoing contractual obligations can make it difficult to release employees for training.
We help property maintenance businesses organise NRSWA qualifications around these demands, offering access to training centres nationwide and dedicated group courses for larger teams.

Our training covers the key Streetworks activities that may arise during external property maintenance, including excavation, reinstatement, locating underground apparatus and signing, lighting and guarding.

Companies with six or more delegates can enquire about group training at their own premises, subject to suitable facilities and course requirements.

Weekday, weekend and, where available, evening options provide flexibility when coordinating training.
Following successful assessment, candidates receive certification for the units achieved and registration on the Street Works Qualifications Register (SWQR). Qualifications are valid for five years.
5-Day NRSWA Operative Course

Our 5-day NRSWA Operative course provides training in physical Streetworks activities, including excavation, backfilling, reinstatement and signing, lighting and guarding. It is relevant to maintenance operatives undertaking qualifying highway works associated with underground service repairs, drainage connections and external infrastructure maintenance.

5-Day NRSWA Supervisor Course

For maintenance managers and supervisors overseeing Streetworks activities, our 5-day Supervisor course covers the monitoring and supervision of excavation, reinstatement and temporary signing, lighting and guarding. It is suitable for those responsible for overseeing contractors and operatives carrying out these activities.

Unit LA – Cat & Genny

External repairs sometimes require excavation near buried electricity cables, gas pipes, water mains or communications infrastructure. Unit LA covers locating and avoiding underground apparatus, helping maintenance teams understand the precautions involved when working near existing services.

Unit O1 – Signing, Lighting & Guarding

Where property maintenance activities affect public footways or highways, temporary signing and guarding may be required. Unit O1 is designed for operatives responsible for setting out and maintaining signs, cones, barriers and associated Streetworks arrangements.

Unit S1 – Monitoring Signing, Lighting & Guarding

Unit S1 is intended for supervisors responsible for monitoring signing, lighting and guarding arrangements. It can be relevant to maintenance supervisors overseeing qualifying Streetworks where temporary pedestrian or traffic-management arrangements are in place.

NRSWA Reassessment

NRSWA qualifications are valid for five years. Our reassessment courses help existing qualification holders renew the relevant units before expiry, allowing property maintenance businesses to plan training around ongoing contracts and workforce requirements.
