Raising standards to protect homeowners
Social housing warranty
Designed for social housing, NHBC provides Buildmark Choice - a 10-year warranty and insurance cover for Registered Social Landlords. This covers a variety of types of social housing, from newly-built to newly-converted or renovated social housing.
Buildmark Choice protects both Registered Social Landlords and their tenants if a problem occurs with the homes they rent or where there is a shared ownership agreement. The social housing cover we provide is flexible and is also suitable for special needs, multiple occupancy projects, foyer schemes, student accommodation and mixed-use sites.

Guidance for Registered Social Landlords
NHBC has produced a guidance booklet for tenants of Registered Social Landlords. It provides useful information on 'running in' a new home, and general guidance on its care and maintenance.
