Home builders involved in the NAHB Research Center's National Housing Quality certification programs can receive discounted general liability insurance from Home Builders' Warranty (HBW) Insurance Services, LLC, a managing general agent with underwriting authority from several insurance companies.

The discounts are being offered at a time when home builders are particularly concerned about insurance availability and cost.

"HBW has become very familiar with the NHQ certification requirements and the significant, positive impact successful implementation of the requirements can have on the technical quality of the home building industry," said Bruce Harrell, CEO of Home Builders’ Warranty.

The discounts offered by HBW apply to builders who successfully implement the NHQ's quality assurance requirements and complete a certification audit.

HBW is also offering discounts to builders who require all or a portion of their critical classes of trade contractors to implement the NHQ's Certified Trade Contractor program and successfully complete a certification audit.

The NHQ program has introduced many quality-related concepts to the home building and remodeling industry. Its activities include co-sponsorship of the National Housing Quality Award, the Certified Trade Contractor program and a pilot Certified Builder program.
