What is NHBCs Buildmark?
NHBC provides the Buildmark warranty and insurance cover for newly built and newly converted homes, and other warranties for social housing and self-build homes. It is therefore important that you check your warranty documentation, which you should have received from your Solicitor on completion. For further information regarding social housing and self-build warranties, please visit the home warranties pages of this website. The Buildmark warranty and insurance cover is divided into five main parts: • Cover before completion • Cover during the first two years (from the date shown on the Ten Year Notice/Insurance Certificate) • Cover during years three to ten • Additional cover in years three to ten (where NHBC’s subsidiary carried out the building control) The steps you should take vary depending on how long the cover has been in operation. It is important to check for the number of your insurance policy and the commencement date of the cover. This information is shown on your Insuran
