Why pick an NHBC registered builder? 

What is NHBC Registration?

The National House Building Council (NHBC) is the UK’s leading and most respected independent body for house building. They provide the majority of structural warranties for new homes and set the highest standards across the industry.

To become NHBC registered, a building company must undergo a rigorous application process. This includes company vetting, on-site inspections at key stages of every build, and the provision of a financial bond.

With approximately 100,000 building companies currently operating in the UK, only around 10% are registered with the NHBC. This demonstrates just how selective the process is.

Why Choose an NHBC Registered Builder?

When you choose an NHBC registered builder — whether for a full new build, a house extension, or even a smaller project such as a garden wall — you can have confidence in the quality of workmanship.

NHBC standards go significantly beyond basic Building Regulations. While most builders can meet minimum regulatory requirements, NHBC registered builders must demonstrate higher levels of skill, attention to detail, and long-term quality.

At OWV Developments Ltd, we are proud to be NHBC registered. This registration gives our clients peace of mind that their project will be completed to the highest standards, with proper oversight and a 10-year structural warranty where applicable.

Building projects can have a major impact on your quality of life. That’s why we believe you deserve a builder who takes the work as seriously as you do.
