Our Commercial Warranty is designed to protect owners or developers of commercial sites from potentially costly defects. The use of a warranty replaces the uncertainty of collateral warranties with the security of a first party insurance policy and the additional benefit of a policy that is transferable to any potential future owners.
On mixed use sites the Commercial Warranty can be used in conjunction with our New Home, Private Rental or Social Housing warranties to provide comprehensive protection for the entire development.
