LABC Warranty
LABC Warranty works in partnership with Local Authority Building Control (LABC) to provide secure and reputable structural warranties across England and Wales.
We have provided warranty cover since 2007, working with some of the largest house builders, contractors and housing associations in the country.
Helping you sell homes
Our warranties are accepted by leading lenders, allowing potential buyers to secure mortgages. As a founding member of the Consumer Code for Home Builders, our warranty also gives you extra credibility and protection for buyers.
Helping you build quality homes
Our national network of Risk Management Surveyors work closely with you and your Local Authority Building Control Surveyor to look at different parts of the build, helping you deliver quality homes. Wherever you are building in England and Wales, the combined technical expertise of our surveyors and your Local Authority will be on hand to help.
Protecting you and your buyers
We work with a panel of ‘A’ rated insurers. This not only means all of our products are secure, but we are able to offer solutions that are tailored to your needs. Whether you are building a one off home or a large multi-storey development, we have the cover and capacity to protect you and your buyers.
LABC Warranty coverage – We have a range of structural warranty cover designed to protect your new build project. Whether you are building new houses, constructing large apartment blocks or working on commercial projects to sell or rent, we are confident that we have a product with the necessary level of cover.
Technical Manual – The LABC Warranty Technical Manual has been written by our technical experts to provide guidance on meeting the technical standards required at different stages of construction.
Good Practice Guide – The Good Practice Guide is a key stage-by-key stage guide to what Risk Management Surveyors are looking for on LABC Warranty sites.
Using examples from real-world sites under our warranty, the Guide complements the requirements in our Technical Manual with visual examples of best practice.
