We approached an insurance company for a retrospective warranty which we needed for the sale of our house. This was holding up the housing chain we were in as we did not know we needed one. After four weeks back and forth with paperwork for this company they said they did not know issue retrospective warranties. We were devastated as it had taken so long to go through all the stages to be told no and worried that the chain might break. The same day we were told no, we found Granite Building Warranties and spoke to a lovely lady called Kelly who reassured us it could be done and on a shorter time scale. Kelly gave us our confidence back and was so helpful and efficient. Kelly helped us gather information, sent off reports on our behalf and chased the companies every step of the way and two weeks later we have our certificate! Can't believe the fast turnaround - Thank you so much, we are so very grateful. Would have no hesitation in recommending the company - brilliant!
