I cannot speak highly enough of Buildsafe, and have no hesitations recommending them. After being stuffed around for over 10 weeks from another company who still hadn't processed our warranty insurance after all that time, Buildsafe processed ours within 1 HOUR!!!! Their service was impeccable and super efficient. Kim was so very helpful. I only wish I had known about them in the beginning. Thanks Kim & Buildsafe!
