National began working with select homebuilders in northern Alberta in 1990 when a small group of builders, dissatisfied with the builder-run warranty program, sought an independent third party provider to meet the warranty needs of their customers. Since that time, National has grown every year. Ten years ago, National entered the BC marketplace at the request of builders seeking an alternative to that provincial builder-run warranty program. When the BC builder-run program went bankrupt, National was there to provide ‘replacement warranty’ coverage for builders and consumers.
Today, National has about 45% of the new home warranty market in British Columbia and approximately 65% of the market in Manitoba. In Alberta, National serves approximately 25% of the market for new home and condo warranties
