Homeowners: how to make a claim

If you are in the unfortunate position of having a problem with your new home, this page describes the sections of cover that may apply to you. Please note not all policies contain the same sections of cover and details of what is or isn't covered can be found in your policy documentation. 

If you believe the issue with your home is covered by your warranty with LABC Warranty, then make a claim via our Claim Notification Portal.

Sections of cover

Cover before completion

If your developer fails to start or complete work on your home due to their insolvency or fraud, contact our claims team immediately.

Defects insurance period

Typically one or two years (if provided) – check your certificate. During this period the developer is responsible for rectifying any defects (deemed to be a failure to comply with our Technical Manual).

Structural insurance period

After the defects period (if provided) and for the remainder of the policy duration – check your certificate. During the structural insurance period our policy protects you from structural defects, which although rare, can be costly to rectify.
