Drumbow Homes
Drumbow Homes are the worst builders I have experienced for snagging. and in general. I had to involve NHBC to exert pressure on them to do anything.

National House-Building Council
The Watchdog team investigated the National House-Building Council (NHBC) yet again on 21 April 2008. It seems that the NHBC or some builder is on televsion every six months or so without fail. Hopefully, the Office of Fair Trading will make recommendations in the summer that will improve consumer rights. I bet Imtiaz Farookhi the NHBC's CEO is quielty hoping for this so he can stop getting hammered on national TV. From the BBC Report:

Eighty five per cent of newly built houses are covered by the NHBC's Buildmark Policy, a warranty that guarantees the NHBC will fix any major defects occurring to a property within the first ten years after purchase.

In 1999, Helen Staub moved into her new home on the outskirts of Manchester. Two years later, cracks started to appear in the house and Helen contacted her insurers who identified major problems with her foundations. She went to the NHBC, hoping that it could fix the problem, but it rejected her claim, stating that it wasn't serious enough.

What does the NHBC say about 'Snagging Companies'
Which? interviewed Imtiaz Farookhi in August 2006 and one of the things he talked about was snagging companies. Although it was more like an ill-informed attack on the business model, rather than a well balanced discussion.

Unfortunately, to read the article you have to sign up for a free trial, but you do get a free digital camera. (It is not a very good one, but it can be used as a webcam and the tripod is quite good.)

When your house isn't watertight, and neither is the cover
It's every householder's nightmare. Early last year, the ground floor of Kevin and Adrienne Loftus's Cheshire home started to sink. The wooden and laminated floorboards had become uneven and cracks had appeared in some. We also found many of the floor tiles in the bathroom had broken, says Mr Loftus.
