New build warranty calculator

The periods in article 17 of the Spanish Building Act run from the certificate of completion and handover of the works. Enter that date and you will see exactly which windows are still open and how many days are left.

Not the date you got the keys to your home, and not the first occupancy licence. If the community does not hold the certificate, obtaining it is the first task.

It runs in your browser. The date you enter never leaves your device. Nothing is sent, nothing is stored, and you are not asked for an email to see the result.

What this calculator does not tell you

It tells you whether the warranty is still open. It does not tell you whether you can still claim, and those are different things. Article 18 of Law 38/1999 sets the limitation period at two years from when the damage becomes apparent, and that period can have expired while the warranty is still open. Which is why what decides a file is not this date but the dated record of when each defect appeared.
