Self-Build warranty

The Self-Build warranty at Graven Hill provides insurance for 10 years against:

  • The risk of major damage to the structure of the home
  • Making good any defect in the design, workmanship, materials or components in the newly installed drainage system in connection with the home
  • Danger to health and safety caused by a defect in chimney or flues

Where you use a builder to construct your home for you, it’s the builder who is responsible for rectifying any insured defects in the first 12 months of your policy. For more details, see your policy document.
