Statutory-warranty outlook
- Structural cover
- Likely expired · est. expiry 6 April 2012
- Non-structural cover

A single 7-year warranty period applies because the scheme was registered before the 1 February 2012 reform. Estimated from the registration date, not the completion date or building contract, so treat the dates as indicative.
