Who we work with

Helping the people behind every conversion

Architects and technologists

You often hear first that a client needs a warranty. We work from your existing and proposed drawings and deal with the provider's technical questions with you, not around you.

Structural engineers

Your condition survey and calculations are the documents a provider looks at hardest on a conversion. We tell you early what the provider will want them to cover.

Building surveyors and project managers

We help your clients line up warranty inspections with the programme, including the stage after strip-out when the old structure can be seen.

Quantity surveyors and employer's agents

The price is based on the rebuild cost, so a sound figure from you helps your client get an accurate quotation first time.

Development lenders and brokers

Funders often make a warranty a condition of lending on a conversion. We help your client meet it without holding up drawdown.

Planning consultants

Once prior approval or planning is granted, the warranty is often the next hurdle. Point your client our way before work starts.

Estate agents and conveyancers

When a sale stalls because a converted home has no warranty, we can look quickly at whether retrospective cover is possible.

Contractors

If you are converting a building for a client who has not sorted a warranty yet, tell them to register it before you start on site.

Investors' advisers

Buying a building to convert? A warranty conversation before exchange can flag issues with the existing structure early.

How referrals work

Simple for you, looked after for your client

  1. Send us your client's details with the form below, or ask them to contact us directly and mention you.
  2. We contact your client, find out about the building and the plans, and approach providers who take on that kind of conversion.
  3. With your client's permission, we keep you updated as the warranty is arranged and as inspections take place.

Please make sure your client is happy for you to pass their details to us before you send them.
