What warranties come with a new construction home?

Short Answer

New construction homes typically include a one-year warranty covering workmanship and materials, a two-year warranty for mechanical systems like plumbing, electrical, and HVAC, and a 10-year structural warranty covering major structural defects. The exact coverage varies by builder and may be backed by a third-party warranty provider. Make sure you understand what is covered, what is excluded, and how to file a claim before you close.
