James Talman - Leveling the Payment Field

In this episode of Roofing Road Trips®, Heidi J. Ellsworth talks with James Talman, CEO of the National Federation of Roofing Contractors (NFRC), about a landmark U.K. government decision to ban retentions in construction contracts and reform long-standing payment laws. Long criticized for straining cash flow, retention practices have impacted specialist contractors for decades. James shares how years of industry advocacy led to this breakthrough, what the transitional period means for contractors, and how the reforms could improve financial stability, protect jobs and support future construction projects. Tune in to learn what these changes mean for the roofing industry and how contractors can prepare for the transition ahead.
