Planning resource
Read the warranty after the headline.
“Lifetime,” “limited,” and “transferable” can mean different things. The useful question is what is covered, by whom, for how long, and under which conditions.
Separate the promises
A project may involve more than one warranty.
Manufacturer product coverage and provider workmanship coverage are usually distinct. MyHomeServicePoint does not manufacture products, perform installations, or issue either warranty.
Identify the legal company responsible for product coverage and the separate provider responsible for workmanship.
Materials, labor, removal, disposal, finishing, accessories, and consequential damage may be treated differently.
Some warranties begin with broader protection, then become prorated or exclude labor and transport.
Improper installation, ventilation, maintenance, modifications, storms, movement, and failure to register may affect a claim.
Check deadlines, fees, number of transfers, required documents, and whether terms change for the next homeowner.
Keep contracts, invoices, product details, photos, maintenance records, and written claim instructions together.
