If you are one of the many new homeowners in the Boise area, you’ve made one of the most exciting, important, and expensive purchases that you will ever make. If your new home was built by a reputable builder, then it probably came with a 1-year warranty.
These builder warranties usually offer coverage on workmanship and materials for major components of the home, however, it is up to you as the homeowner to submit a claim if necessary. By identifying areas of concern while warranty coverage is still in effect can save you hundreds or even thousands on future repairs.
