You're building your dream home. Do you know what's included in your builder's warranty? Knowing what's covered and what's not covered in your warranty is very important for protecting your home and family. This article explains new home builder's warranties and what's normally included or omitted in their coverage.
Most warranties for newly constructed homes offer limited coverage on workmanship and materials as they relate to components of the home, such as windows, siding, doors, roofs or plumbing, electrical and HVAC systems. Warranties typically provide coverage for one to two years, although the specific time period may vary by from component to component; coverage may last up to a decade on major structural elements. Warranties also routinely define how repairs will be made and by whom. Warranties generally do not cover household appliances, tile or drywall cracks, irrigation systems or components covered under a manufacturer’s warranty.
