WALL TIE INSTALLERS FEDERATION
WTIF Warranty
The WTIF Warranty Scheme is open to all full members of the Federation. It guarantees the work of the member for a period of twenty-five years. Each individual warranty covers a single building, or one elevation of a building (part-elevations are not covered due to the effect that ties in the untreated part may have on the treated work when they fail).
The warranty covers the replacement ties and any ancillary work included as part of the contract; for example repointing, brick reinforcement and the like. It covers material and workmanship.
The warranty is issued jointly by the member and by the Federation; in the event of a claim the policy indemnifies the member against the cost of reinstatement or the Federation if the member is no longer trading as a member of the federation.
The warranty further indemnifies the member against a claim for professional negligence, for example, in the choice of tie or in the advice given about the contract.
The WTIF carries annual Product Guarantee insurance which indemnifies the company and named installers in respect of liability arising under the guarantees issued.

Independent of manufacturer or installer
