Homeowner Explainer – Home Improvements Guarantee

If you’re thinking about a loft conversion or house extension, choosing the right builder is important — but protecting your project is even more important.

Home Improvements Guarantee (HIG) is a membership-based network of vetted contractors who use insurance-backed guarantees on their clients’ projects. In many cases, these guarantees are included as part of the contract, not added later or sold separately.

That means if the unexpected happens — such as a contractor going out of business or failing to complete the work — your money and your project are protected by independent insurance backing.

Good contractors don’t see guarantees as a problem — they use them to give homeowners confidence and peace of mind, and to show they stand behind their work.

Before you choose a builder, it’s worth asking one simple question:


“Is my project protected by an insurance-backed guarantee?”

If the answer is yes, you can move forward with far more confidence.

Good builders don’t object to guarantees — they use them.

Although a home improvement is one of the safest forms of financial investment, there is one pitfall that is often overlooked - A WORTHLESS GUARANTEE.

​Most contractors give a guarantee on the work they have or are about to complete, should you have a reason to contact them in the future regarding faulty workmanship or defective materials. However - if they cease to trade, their guarantee will cease as well.
