We provide an extensive range of 20-year guarantees covering the treatment of rising damp, woodworm, dry rot, and wet rot. We also offer 10-year guarantees covering waterproofing work including basement conversions.
To underwrite our company guarantees we also offer the option of a GPI insurance-backed guarantee through the Guarantee Protection Trust. We consider the GPI guarantee to be the leading insurance-backed guarantee available and it is often the one specified by local authorities, the NHBC and Zurich Insurance. Premiums for GPI guarantees are one-off payments, representing excellent value for money
"All remedial contractors offer guarantees on the work that's been done for you, and most are issued in good faith. The truth is, however, that these guarantees may become valueless"
"Structural waterproofing is one of the most difficult jobs in the construction industry. Specialist knowledge, training and experience are needed. However, because a great many waterproofing jobs are in fact poorly executed or inadequately specified, many contractors go out of business while constantly trying to repair them. The property owner is then not only left with a worthless contractor's guarantee, but with the continuing cost of repairs".
