Home BuildingWarranty Insurance

Whiteley Ironside & Shillington provides expert legal services in Building and Construction Law.

Home building warranty insurance is a requirement for residential building work valued at over $20,000.00. It covers defects in the building work for a set period, providing protection to homeowners for faulty or incomplete building work.

We understand the importance of home building warranty insurance and the requirements and obligations of homeowners and builders alike. We can help you understand insurance requirements and obligations, and help you choose the right insurance for your home building works, from renovations to new builds.

If you are a homeowner and you have found your building work to be faulty or incomplete, we can help you make a claim against the builder on your insurance and ensure that the claims process is handled fairly and efficiently.

Home building warranty insurance and the construction industry can be a confusing minefield. We can provide you with clear and succinct advice for your situation and help ensure that you comply with the home building warranty insurance requirements.
