NHBC Warranty

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has been in this situation.
I'm in the process of selling my flat and buying a house. The flat is covered by an NHBC warranty as there was some movement I the building. We've just got a letter from the agents saying that the NHBC want to do work to the whole block and that all occupants in the building will have to move out for a minimum of 6 months.
We're likely to lose our buyer for our flat and also lose the money we've spent on the purchase. Is there any way we can claim back the losses we'll incur from the NHBC?

I imagine the NHBC will be paying for alternative housing for all occupants during this 6 month period?
I also imagine that since they are accepting liability, and paying associated costs, if you can prove you have incurred addiotional costs/losses, you can claim.
But I am not an NHBC expert!0
