Build Warranty is proud to announce it will be one of the main sponsors at UK Construction Week (UKCW) London, returning to ExCeL London from 12–14 May 2026 — and this year's show is shaping up to be one of the most important moments the UK construction industry has seen in years.

The big headline? UK Construction Week London and Futurebuild are coming together in 2026, creating what many are already calling the UK's built environment super event.

For Build Warranty, this matters because it mirrors exactly what the industry needs right now: greater collaboration between design, sustainability, delivery, compliance, and real-world project execution — all in one connected place.

A Bigger, Better UKCW London — At Exactly the Right Time

According to UKCW, the combined show is expected to bring together 25,000 built environment professionals, alongside 600+ exhibitors and 700+ speakers, across 14 dedicated stages.

That level of scale isn't just impressive — it's essential.

The industry is navigating higher build costs, new regulatory expectations, rising client demands, and the urgent need to deliver more homes efficiently while maintaining quality. UKCW London 2026 is set to become the focal point where those challenges are tackled head-on with practical solutions and fresh thinking.

Two Shows, One Powerful Destination

While both UKCW London and Futurebuild will retain their own identities, the new co-location means visitors can access a much wider range of specialists and decision-makers in one trip.

• Futurebuild will continue its focus on sustainability, Net Zero, low-carbon construction, and innovation, bringing together architects, designers, local authorities and developers — including the National Retrofit Conference, a key highlight for policy and large-scale retrofit conversations.

• Meanwhile, UKCW London will keep championing the hands-on delivery side of construction — connecting housebuilders, contractors, trades and engineers with the tools, systems, and skills needed on-site.

What This Means for Developers, Builders, and the Warranty Market

At Build Warranty, we believe construction success starts long before completion — it starts with getting the right technical processes, risk management, and build quality embedded from day one.

That's why UKCW London 2026 is the perfect environment for the conversations that matter most:

• How to deliver high-quality homes while meeting tight timelines

• How developers can protect schemes with robust structural warranty coverage

• How technical auditing and risk oversight should support — not slow down — delivery

• How smarter technology can reduce friction and improve the customer journey

A New Era for the Built Environment

Alongside UKCW London and Futurebuild, The Stone & Surfaces Show will also be hosted at ExCeL London, bringing an even stronger focus on materials, finishes, and specification.

This isn't just "another trade show" — it's the industry coming together in a more connected, modern format, designed to reflect the reality of how projects are delivered today.

Build Warranty is delighted to be supporting UKCW London 2026 as a main sponsor, and we look forward to welcoming developers, builders, consultants, and partners to the show for three days of insight, innovation, and future-focused construction.

See you at ExCeL London — 12 to 14 May 2026.
