LABC warranty

In order to obtain a mortgage, most banks and building societies require new buildings to have a structural warranty in place as it covers any risks that are not included in standard buildings insurance such as design, materials or workmanship.

LABC's business partner LABC Warranty provides such a warranty as well as a complete range of specialist services including SAP calcs, Code for Sustainable Homes assessments, acoustic and air pressure testing.

Launched over three years ago it has proved to be a highly competitive product for speculative residential housing, social housing and self build and is recognised by all major Banks and Building Societies. It was created in partnership between LABC, the representative body for Local Authority Building Control, and MD Insurance Services Limited (MDIS) the company that administers the scheme and is regulated by the Financial Services Authority (FSA).

Service and support is fast and seamless because of MDIS's experienced, dedicated customer service team.
