Built to last and backed by warranty
By following the New Homes Quality Code and providing warranties, we make sure your new home is protected, and you’re supported throughout the journey. Here’s what’s covered and when:
- Before handover: Built to current building regulations
Every home is built to today’s standards for insulation, fire safety and energy efficiency – requirements that older housing stock was never built to meet and can’t always be retrofitted to. - Pre-handover: The commissioning checklist
Before the keys are handed over, your home undergoes a full commissioning checklist that checks every detail. - Final check: Ready to move in
A further ready-to-move-in check confirms your home is prepared for your arrival. - Years 1-2: Full warranty cover
Our home warranty covers your first two years, with our Customer Service team only a call or email away, giving you complete peace of mind as you settle in. - Years 3-10: Structural warranty cover
Years three to 10 are covered by structural warranty protection, safeguarding you against any major issues long after you’ve moved in.
