If the lawn has been messed up, it should be up to the builders to restore it and that should have been itemised as part of the construction costs. If it was not, they can say it’s not their problem.

At the very least it needs to have the humps and hollows levelled off and re-seeded. If it is very disrupted, you will need to spray it off with Roundup, cultivate it by digging or with a rotavator, allow it to settle, rake it level and re-sow.
