Description

The Supreme Court’s ruling in URS Corporation Ltd (Appellant) v BDW Trading Ltd (Respondent) [2025] UKSC 21 has been highly anticipated and is now regarded as one of the most significant construction law rulings in recent years. It marks the Court's first major interpretation of both the Defective Premises Act 1972 and Building Safety Act 2022.

Morgan Taylor, Claims and Technical Executive at Howden, and Jonathan Carrington, Senior Associate at RPC, examine the background to the case, the Court’s findings, and the potential implications for construction and property professionals moving forward.
