Indemnity insurance

I just sold my house and found out that we don't have an end certificate on an extension completed 7 years ago. I now applied and they are saying that trays should have been put into the bricks joining the extension to existing house. However we have two windows just above the extension. Now we need to get indemnity insurance. To cover the fact that we can't get end certificate.

To cover the fact that we can't get end certificate.What costs is this insurance is supposed to cover and in what event?

If you mean you've already been in touch with building control and they've pointed out things which need fixed, then no, indemnity insurance isn't going to be a solution. Insurance isn't going to cover things which you've recently tipped off the council about.desave_west said:I just sold my house and found out that we don't have an end certificate on an extension completed 7 years ago.
