'This new edition tells you all you need to know about how construction defects in homes occur, how they might be prevented, and how they might be cured.'
Her Honour Frances Kirkham CBE, Atkin Chambers

The first edition of Residential Construction Law in 2021 offered the only systematic and analytical overview of the legal framework for residential construction. Since then, there have been significant legislative and caselaw developments across the UK, Aotearoa New Zealand, Australia and Ireland. In this second edition, the authors and their team of specialist contributors have completely revised the content, taking these changes into account.

This new edition refers to more than 350 new cases, along with ground-breaking reforms like the UK's Building Safety Act 2022 and lessons from the September 2024 Phase 2 report of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry. The book also anticipates planned reforms, including sweeping changes in several Australian states.
The revised edition retains the book's highly accessible structure and readability, making it an indispensable guide for lawyers, industry professionals and homeowners seeking to come to grips with the principles of residential construction law. It also provides an essential starting point for students and practitioners needing to understand the detail of this specialist area. It provides clear statements of the relevant law, explaining - aided by case studies, diagrams, text tables and a glossary - the law's intended policy outcomes and techniques. It also provides a critical view of areas where those goals have not been attained, requiring further reform.
