Construction · Defined
Construction warranty
A contractual or product-specific undertaking concerning the quality or performance of work, with defined obligations and limitations.
Why it matters
Review scope, duration, exclusions, start dates, and claim procedures. A correction period and a manufacturer’s warranty are not automatically the same obligation.
In practice
A project example
A roof warranty excludes certain damage and requires maintenance records before a claim is evaluated.
