Repairs to new homes: defects
If you have moved into a new-build home with Leeds & Yorkshire Housing Association, any repairs required within the first twelve months are known as defects. Defects are corrected by the developer of your new home, rather than being reported as a 'repair'.
Normal wear and tear of the property cannot be classed as a defect.
After the 12-month period is over, Leeds & Yorkshire Housing Association will then take over responsibility for any repairs needed to your home.
