Individual home builder guarantees
Strong guarantees to secure your construction project
Building your home is a major life project. At Eden Home, we are committed to supporting you with transparency and security, thanks to a strict and protective legal framework.
As a single-family home builder in Haute-Savoie, we rely on the Contrat de Construction de Maison Individuelle(CCMI), established by the 1990 law, which protects private clients at every stage of their project.
This contract provides a high level of security, both financially and technically, allowing you to move forward with your project with complete confidence.
The CCMI: a protective legal framework for your construction
The CCMI is now the most secure contract for building a home in France. It strictly governs the builder’s obligations and protects the client (project owner).
A regulated contract
Only authorized builders are allowed to offer a CCMI. This framework requires:
- A fixed, all-inclusive price
- Defined construction timelines
- Mandatory guarantees
- Regulated payment schedules
Security for the client
Thanks to the CCMI, you benefit from comprehensive protection against construction-related risks, with clear and structured legal recourse.
Guarantees included in the CCMI to secure your project
Thanks to all these guarantees, you benefit from a reliable framework to build your home with complete confidence.This guarantee is essential to your project.
It ensures that:
- The price agreed in the contract is fixed and final
- The construction timeline is respected
In the event of builder default, an external guarantor steps in to ensure the completion of your home under the agreed conditions.
Before construction begins, this guarantee protects the amounts you have paid.
It allows for the reimbursement of deposits in the following cases :
- Exercise of your right of withdrawal within the legal timeframe
- Failure to meet conditions precedent (planning permission, financing, etc.)

This ensures you commit to your project with full financial security.
This guarantee covers all defects reported after the handover of the project for a period of one year.
It includes:
- Non-conformities
- Workmanship defects
- Reservations noted at the time of delivery
The builder is required to carry out the necessary work to correct these issues.
Also known as the functional guarantee, it covers for two years all elements that can be separated from the structure.
Examples include:
- Plumbing fixtures
- Shutters
- Technical equipment
- Interior doors
These elements can be repaired or replaced without affecting the structure of the building.
The ten-year structural warranty protects your home for 10 years from the date of handover.
It covers damage affecting :
- The structural integrity of the building
- Structural components
- Defects that render the home unfit for its intended use
This is an essential guarantee to ensure the long-term durability of your investment.
Building damage insurance: fast and effective protection
Mandatory in France, building damage insurance (assurance dommages-ouvrage) ensures the rapid coverage of repair costs in the event of damage covered by the ten-year structural warranty.
It allows you to:
- Receive compensation quickly without waiting for a court decision
- Finance the necessary repair work
- Secure your property over the long term
It may also cover certain additional costs, such as technical studies or temporary relocation if required.
A true guarantee of peace of mind, it protects you throughout the life of your home and simplifies the management of any potential claims by reducing administrative procedures and response times.
In the event of an issue, you benefit from a single point of contact who coordinates assessments and repairs, avoiding complex and often lengthy procedures.
Finally, this insurance is a real asset when reselling your property, reassuring future buyers about the quality and security of the construction.
