Home Builders and Renovators - Simplify and Reduce Cost of Home Warranties

For custom home builders and renovators, maintaining the quality and integrity of a project long after the build is complete is crucial, especially when it comes to managing home warranties. Warranties are a great way to protect both the homeowner and builder from unexpected issues, but managing these warranties—especially when it comes to regular maintenance—can be a time-consuming and costly process. This is where Squad Life’s year-round home maintenance services can step in to save custom home builders and renovators both time and money.

Squad Life helps identify minor issues early on—before they require warranty intervention.

Preventing Warranty Claims with Routine Maintenance

One of the most common causes of home warranty claims is lack of regular maintenance. Issues like clogged drains, HVAC malfunctions, roof leaks, and poor insulation can lead to claims if left unchecked. Squad Life’s proactive approach to home maintenance can help reduce these kinds of problems before they escalate into costly warranty claims.

By providing ongoing inspections and maintenance for custom homes, Squad Life helps identify minor issues early on—before they require warranty intervention. Regular maintenance of critical systems such as plumbing, HVAC, and electrical components helps ensure they remain in optimal condition and meet warranty guidelines. This can save home builders and renovators from having to manage expensive repairs or replacements covered by the warranty.

Extended Warranty Lifespan

A well-maintained home doesn’t just prevent problems; it also extends the lifespan of systems and appliances, reducing the likelihood of premature failure. Squad Life's services include detailed inspections that monitor the condition of all critical home systems, from plumbing to roofing, ensuring that everything is functioning as it should. Regular upkeep keeps homes in peak condition, which can reduce wear and tear on key elements that might otherwise fall under warranty.

For custom home builders and renovators, this translates to fewer claims and a longer, more effective warranty period. By utilizing Squad Life’s maintenance services, builders can feel confident that homes will remain in excellent condition throughout the warranty period, reducing the risk of costly post-construction issues.

Fewer Emergency Repairs

Emergency repairs are expensive—not just for the homeowner, but for the builder as well. Many home warranty providers stipulate that any repairs outside the standard coverage or maintenance schedules may fall on the builder’s responsibility, leading to unplanned expenses. With Squad Life's year-round home maintenance service, builders and renovators can minimize the risk of emergency repairs, as regular maintenance and early detection of potential issues reduce the need for costly, last-minute fixes.

For example, an HVAC system that hasn’t been properly maintained could break down unexpectedly, causing a significant disruption for the homeowner. Similarly, a neglected roof might develop leaks after a storm, leading to expensive water damage. Routine inspections help catch such issues early, preventing costly repairs and minimizing the need to make a warranty claim.

Build Client Relationships and Get Referrals

A key component of building trust with clients is ensuring they feel secure in their new homes. Offering a service like Squad Life’s home maintenance ensures that clients are taken care of long after the home is built. Builders who partner with Squad Life can offer their clients peace of mind by ensuring their homes are regularly maintained, lowering the likelihood of surprise repair bills, and keeping everything in working order.
