Buying a new house may be one the biggest decisions you will ever make which is why you can have the additional assurance that your home can be covered by a structural warranty provided by LABC New Home Warranty. A structural warranty is an insurance policy which protects you against any problems affecting the structure of the property leading to defects which are not covered by household insurance.  

Our surveyors carry out inspections for quality control purposes, and it is just as important that homeowners inspect the property at the handover stage (before moving in), as once the property is occupied, it may be difficult to prove who did the damage. Any damage should be reported to the developer know before moving in.

As well as helping to protect the environment, going green can also save you money. Here are a few simple ways in which you can make a difference: 

• Switch to energy-saving light bulbs;
• Turn off appliances instead of leaving them on standby;
• Fix dripping taps and use water wisely;
• Consider renewable energy technologies;
• Reducing the temperature on your thermostat by 1 degree could save up to 10% on heating bills;
• Use household appliances that save energy, water and money.

LABC New Home Warranty does not cover against all defects.  It is an insurance policy that covers you against specified risks that could be very expensive to put right. It does not provide cover for general wear and tear, condensation, shrinkage, and damage arising from failure to maintain the property.  For full details you should read your copy of the policy document that specifies the cover provided.
