When a contractor damages your home — cracks, breaks, flooding, or destruction — they are responsible for repair. You have clear rights to recover every penny.
It is not just about repair costs. It is about someone you trusted causing harm to the place you live.
Your home is your safe space. When a contractor damages it, that sense of safety is compromised.
Discovering unexpected damage — cracks, breaks, or flooding — after trusting someone with your home is deeply upsetting.
Damage often requires specialist repair, not just a quick fix. The costs can escalate quickly.
Some damage — like cracks or water ingress — can worsen over time. Not knowing the full extent is worrying.
Whether the damage is minor or severe, you have paths to get the full cost of repair covered.
Understand your rights, document the damage, and get clear next steps for claiming repair costs from the contractor.
For significant or complex damage, a specialist can arrange expert assessment, quantify all losses, and pursue full recovery through all channels.
You only pay if they recover
