Progressive Home Warranty
Progressive Home Warranty
At Cami Comfort Homes, we proudly use Progressive Home Warranty as our warranty provider. The Progressive Home Warranty is designed to protect new home buyers. They ensure that builders are held to the highest standards of accountability in construction.
Home warranty is meant to cover defects, which typically means items that fail once you are in your home. It is very important that you understand your warranty early, before you need it. We recommend you take the time to read your specific warranty policy in full to understand what is covered. Understand what limitations and exclusions there are and become familiar with your policy expiry dates.
Warranty does not cover everything that may arise with your home or home builder and your warranty does not replace the need for home insurance. Warranty does not get involved in contract related disputes, does not cover incomplete work, does not deal with the substitution of materials or colors, delayed occupancy or deposit refunds. Your warranty policy is not designed to respond to emergency situations and warranty does not offer coverage after the expiry date of that portion of the policy. Your home insurance policy may offer coverage or services not provided by your home warranty policy and should be contacted as well for further discussion and coverage/protection for your home.
The first year of warranty covers against defects (items that do not conform to warranty standards) in workmanship and materials that appear after you move into your new home. This service is provided by Cami Comfort Homes’ homeowner care department. The customer will be contacted to set up a 3 month and 12 month service where warranty items outlined by the Alberta Construction Performance Guide will be addressed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does a Progressive Warranty cover for a new home?
A Progressive Warranty typically covers key aspects of a newly built home for a set period following possession. This can include protection for major structural elements, work completed by licensed trades, and defects in materials or workmanship under normal use. Homeowners often rely on these warranties to provide peace of mind and a clear way to address issues that arise shortly after move-in.
How long does a Progressive Warranty last on a new home?
Progressive Warranties for new homes commonly include coverage that varies by item and time period. Some elements like workmanship and materials may be covered for the first year, while structural components can have longer terms. Specific time frames depend on the warranty provider’s terms, so it’s important for buyers to review the exact details before possession.
Why is a Progressive Warranty important when buying a newly built home?
A Progressive Warranty is important because it offers a standard form of coverage if certain problems occur after ownership begins. New homes involve many systems and components that may settle or require adjustment. Warranty coverage provides a process for identifying and repairing issues that are otherwise unexpected costs to the homeowner.
What items are typically excluded from a Progressive Warranty?
Common exclusions in Progressive Warranty coverage often include normal wear and tear, damage from misuse, cosmetic issues that do not affect function, and issues caused by lack of maintenance. Warranty documents generally list exclusions and limitations so homeowners understand what is and is not eligible for coverage.
How do I make a Progressive Warranty claim on my new home?
To make a Progressive Warranty claim, homeowners usually start by documenting the issue and referring to their warranty paperwork for claim procedures. Most warranty providers require a written notice, clear description of the problem, and any supporting photos. Prompt reporting and following the prescribed process helps ensure the request is handled within the specified warranty period.
