For the first two years after legal completion, Westerhill Homes provides a two year warranty to cover any defects to your new home caused by faulty workmanship or materials.
The warranty covers items supplied as part of your new home, and covers defects caused by faulty workmanship and/or materials. It is not affected if you sell or let your home, as when you sell your home whilst it is still in warranty, the cover is automatically transferred to the new owners.
This warranty does not affect your statutory rights – some manufacturers also offer warranties over and above the initial Westerhill Homes two-year warranty. For these, contact the manufacturers own customer service departments for more information.
Any alteration or extension you make to your new home following legal completion may adversely affect all, or part of, your two-year warranty. We do not protect you against every problem that may occur and you have a responsibility to carry out maintenance on your new home. Several limitations and conditions apply.
Any cosmetic defects such as scratches, chips or marks that have not been reported to a member of the Customer Service team within three days of legal completion. This includes decoration to woodwork, walls and ceilings, flooring, tiling, kitchen units and work surfaces, bedroom and bathroom furniture, sinks, sanitary ware, appliances, glass and other similar items. Outside of this time frame it would be difficult to prove how the damage was caused. Please report any damages to our Customer Service team to correctly log these concerns:
Problems with any workmanship, materials or appliances that you have bought or added to the property.
Damage caused by storms or accidentally, by negligence, abuse or poor maintenance of the property or appliances.
If blockages in pipes caused by inappropriate disposals of waste, this may be charged.
Any problems caused by natural shrinkage or condensation.
Any inconvenience, distress or consequential loss of enjoyment, use business or income caused by remedial works, assuming all reasonable steps have been taken to minimise disruption.
