"We have always worked with LABC Warranty before we actually start construction. One of the first things we noticed was how fast they were at approving plans and drawings and how fast they would come if issues arose on site.”

"Not only is the design important but also the quality and assurance that the house is being built the way it should be. That’s where we come in!"
Peter Bond - Sales Director, Cyden Homes

“It’s been fantastic working with LABC Warranty and I’d like to work with them in the future.”

“I think I can speak for most site managers that we would only build something that we would be proud to live in ourselves. If anything escapes me my inspector will always see it and point it out and between the two of us we can come to a solution.”
Mick Rose, Site Manager, Bloor Homes

"LABC Warranty inspectors are professional, experienced and expert in their field.”

"We chose to work with LABC Warranty because we think it is the most prominent organisation of its type and the prestige of winning their awards reflects more positively on us than other warranty providers. Anything that rewards and recognises quality, stimulates quality, and that can only be a good thing."
Gary Reed, Owner, High Grange Developments
