New homes finished in the first half of 2005 had an average 80 defects per property - up over 50% on 2004 - this at a time when some large house builders were announcing vast profits for the first half of 2005 (in excess of £39,000 per home). The average cost of works arising from defects can total approx £3,500.00, not to mention the inconvenience and mental strain that buyers can suffer as a result - do you want to risk those kind of costs for the sake of a few hundred pounds?
