Five-year written workmanship warranty on materials and labour, transferable to a new homeowner within that window. Manufacturer warranties on any installed products pass through separately.

What if it rains or snows on the booking day?

Yes. Condo boards in Port Hope typically want a scope letter and insurance certificate 48 hours out; heritage properties need product substitutions we pre-source.
