Hi
Could you please tell me if there is any insurance you can take out if you need to take housebulders to court over snagging issue delays etc. I know what the NHBC covers but other things that they don't cover. 
Thanks

Check your Home Insurance Policy.
Most have a Legal Protection Insurance that covers legal fees in certain situations. 
On other policies this is an optional extra but well worth the £20 a year extra on your premium.

Be aware they may not include existing disputes.
Good Luck.
