The 10-year NHBC Buildmark warranty cover comes in two parts, here’s how it works:
Part 1: 10-year structural warranty.
Your new home comes with a 10-year structural warranty, meaning that the cost of fixing damage caused by faults in specified parts of the home, usually the structural and weatherproofing elements is covered.
Part 2: 2-year fixtures and fittings warranty.
During the first two years, you have the added reassurance that if something goes wrong within your home, and is covered by the 2-year fixtures and fittings warranty, we will make sure it is put right.
