National Home Builders Registration
Council (NHBRC)
The promulgation of the Housing Consumers
Protection Act (Act 95 of 1998) took place in
June 1999. This made the NHBRC a statutory body,
and since 1 December 1999 it is compulsory for
all home builders operational in the home building
industry to be registered with the NHBRC. This
Act has been created to provide protection against
so-called "fly-by-night" builders. That
is, either builders who build to an unacceptable
quality standard or builders who refuse to get
involved in the rectification of built-in defects
in the home.
