Please see full Terms & Conditions.

Your Lifetime Structural Guarantee begins from the date your home reaches practical completion and lasts for as long as you own the land*.

If you're an individual:

The guarantee remains valid until either:

• You sell or transfer the land, or
• It ends upon your passing.

If the land is owned by a corporate entity or trust:

The guarantee will continue for up to 50 years from the completion date, or until the land is sold or transferred - whichever comes first.

Please see full Terms & Conditions.

The Lifetime Structural Guarantee is not transferrable and will end on the date the land is transferred to another person or entity.
