5. Do you provide a warranty for my new home?
Yes, a warranty is typically provided for a new home, offering protection against certain defects and issues that may arise after you move in. This usually includes a builder’s warranty covering workmanship and materials for 1-2 years and structural components for up to 10 years. Additionally, manufacturer’s warranties cover specific products like appliances and HVAC systems, while third-party home warranties can offer further protection for major systems and appliances.
Coverage often includes defects in workmanship, materials, mechanical systems, and structural components, though it generally excludes normal wear and tear, minor cosmetic issues, homeowner negligence, and damage from natural disasters.
To ensure coverage, it’s important to keep all warranty documents, conduct regular inspections, maintain home systems, and communicate promptly with your builder or warranty provider about any issues.
