Your Home WARRANTY and what is covered
Your Units elements, fixtures & appliances are under warranty for one year from your purchase date.
The walls & trim have been inspected at the time of purchase and have been accepted by you, the buyer. Periodically, there can be minor cosmetic issues, including separations of the trim elements. This is not a defect, but a result of shrinkage, settling and or expansion and contraction of the components used in the building process. The builder's warranty will address these issues one time within the first 12 months of ownership. Usually it just requires a touch up with caulk or spackle and paint to correct. It is suggested you allow a period of at least 10 months to see if any of these issues occur and they will be addressed all at one time by submitting a work order. The builder will not address these repeatedly as they occur, but at one time during the 12 months. Seasonal change can have an effect on the expansion and contraction movement within the home, so it is best to live through the seasonal change before requesting service.
