Aftercare

Confidence that continues after handover.

Settling into your finished home should feel reassuring. If something needs attention, you have a team to turn to and a clear way to put it in our hands.

We complete a snagging review and provide the relevant handover documents and workmanship terms. Our care continues beyond that point: we help you understand the issue, explain the next steps and coordinate the agreed follow-up.

A clear process

One place to raise it.
A clear way forward.

Our online ticket system helps us manage aftercare carefully. Your description, photographs and updates stay together, giving the team the context to follow your request through.

You do not need to diagnose the problem yourself. Start by telling us what you have noticed. We will review it with you and explain how we can help.

  1. Tell us what needs attention

    Raise a ticket in your client portal. Describe what you have noticed, where it is and when it started. You can attach photographs or documents to help us understand the issue.

  2. We review it and explain the next step

    Our team reviews the details and lets you know if we need more information or a closer look. We clarify the relevant cover and discuss what needs to happen next, including access if a visit is needed.

  3. Keep the details together

    Follow the ticket’s status, read updates and add information in the same place. This gives you and our team a shared record as we coordinate the agreed next steps and work towards resolving the issue.

Your workmanship cover

Care backed by clear guarantees.

Knowing where you stand matters. These are the guarantee periods for our work, with product guarantees kept separate so the right cover is clear.

Structural work, extensions and loft conversions

Item breakages are excluded from our workmanship guarantee and fall under the manufacturers’ own guarantees. If you are unsure which cover applies, include the details in your support request so we can clarify the next step.
