My wife and I moved into our new build house just over a year ago. It was built by a local independant builder. Six months after we moved in, we got the builder to come back and fix two cracked tiles on the kitchen floor, a broken shower extractor fan and some leaky guttering. Unsurprisingly the guttering is still leaking - apparently when they 'fixed' it, all they did was unblock it, but it is leaking from a join, I also have a back fence that is falling down because they didn't concrete in the posts and I have several cracks (about 5mm+ wide) that have appeared around just about any wood/plaster join, so doorframes, stairs, skirting boards etc. Oh yes and one of the showers still leaks. To top it all off we were promised electrical/gas certificates would follow but have been subsequently informed that 'you don't need these'.
The house is covered by a Zurich guarantee, not an NHBC one, does this mean I still have 2 years to get all the snags sorted/still entitled to the certificates? Is it any different to the NHBC one? Any thoughts on what we should do?
