Homeowner Warranty

Your new home is a significant investment, and preventative maintenance is essential to protecting and preserving it. To help you care for your home effectively, we provided you with an official Maintenance Manual when you purchased your home. This manual includes detailed recommendations and procedures for maintaining your home’s features and materials. We encourage you to review it thoroughly as you begin your homeownership journey.

Located in Northern California, your home experiences daily temperature changes and expansive soils that are common to the region. These factors, combined with the natural properties of building materials like wood and concrete, can lead to normal effects such as minor warping or hairline cracks in drywall, stucco, concrete, or mortar. These occurrences are typical within the first year after construction and do not impact your home’s structural integrity.

To minimize these effects, we recommend maintaining a consistent temperature and moderate humidity levels in your home, especially during the first year. This helps materials settle and dry evenly, reducing the likelihood of larger settlement or shrinkage cracks.

When performing maintenance or making alterations—such as repainting, adding landscaping, or installing exterior window coverings—please consult licensed professionals. This ensures that your updates comply with local codes and neighborhood regulations, safeguarding the value and appearance of your home.

Your Maintenance Manual provides an overview of the materials and features in your home, along with routine care recommendations. By following these guidelines and staying proactive with maintenance, you’ll help ensure your home remains beautiful and functional for years to come.
