Too much work needed when there's a…
Too much work needed when there's a clear breach in terms of provider fault. They make it as difficult as possible to make good, relying entirely on wearing you down.
As a full-time working parent with three children, I do not have the time to act as an unpaid project manager. Yet NHBC has forced me to do all the heavy lifting for blatant builder failures:
The Sewage Blockage: Builders left an end cap inside the sewage pipe under our kitchen floor. We had to rip out the toilet cistern and hire two independent drainage companies just to get it resolved. NHBC refused to pay for the damage to the toilet and rejected the claim entirely because they claimed it fell under their £2,000 "Minimum Claim Value" threshold. We were left with the mess and the bill.
The Second Leaking Roof: Our roof is now leaking for the second time since moving in. Despite this being a clear-cut workmanship breach, I’ve had to do all the legwork—endlessly chasing them and gathering quotes myself.
I threatened to take them to court, which is exactly what they deserve. However, like most busy parents, I simply do not have the spare time or energy to fight a prolonged legal battle. NHBC knows this. Their entire business model relies on exhausting ordinary, hardworking families until they give up and pay for the builders' mistakes themselves. Absolutely shameful.

Hi DTALF Turner, We’re very sorry to read about your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share such detailed feedback.
Although your complaint regarding the sewage pipe has already been reviewed, please know your feedback is taken seriously and is passed on, so we can continue improving the service our customers receive.
We are concerned to hear about the issues with your roof and that you feel you have had to take on a significant amount of the effort to move things forward. This is not the level of service we aim to provide, and we understand how repeated defects can add to both stress and inconvenience.
We would like the opportunity to review the handling of your current concerns, including the ongoing roof issue, to ensure the claim is being managed appropriately and that you are receiving the support you should expect.
If you would like a member of our complaints team to look into this for you, please reach out to us via www.nhbc.co.uk/contact/complaints.
Thank you again for reaching out and sharing your experience. We’re sorry it wasn’t a positive one, and we wish you all the best going forward. Thanks, Anne

Process easy to follow
They were very helpful, explained the process in full and were also available for follow up questions. Ideally would have preferred an inspection of the roof area as opposed to it all being based on photo evidence but dealt with promptly. The proof will be if leak has ceased.

Had bay window leak
Had bay window leak. NHBC came out with Bloor agent. Diagnosed water ingress via fir tree studs. Totally incorrect. It was the cavity trays not fixed to the lead. Roofing company told me it needed cavity trays with the lead attached. This guarantees that the water comes over the lead and goes directly into the cavity tray. I would love to hear the logic behind your man’s solution as he said he was 100% sure as to the cause. Strange as there have now been 3 incidents all of which were caused by the use of the incorrrect cavity trays.

Whilst all the good people I spoke with their internal finance department let them down. However a journey of discovery was most enjoyable, Not!!
Whilst all the good people I spoke with at NHBC were so helpful they were let down by their internal finance department. My settlement took nearly four weeks to come through after multiple telphone calls. I would recommend that an internal 1to1 handler is assigned to a customer and for that handler to be the main Point of Contact throughout the whole time. I spoke with 5 different people who were very good but as I said were let down by their own internal Finance Department.

The whole process from inspection to agreeing about the problem and final financial settlement was very efficient once I had gathered enough quotes - that was the biggest problem - getting contractors to quote for the job.
