Every Harbor Home is backed by the 10-year RWC (Residential Warranty Corporation) Oklahoma warranty for new homes. The 10-year portion of your warranty is covered by RWC and is for the Designated Structural elements (DSE) of the home. The 1-year builder portion of the warranty is covered by Harbor Homes. A warranty book can be provided upon agreement to build/buy and it will be included in the booklet at closing. The warranty book explains in detail what is covered, what is not covered, and how to make a warranty request for a repair.

There are many manufacturer warranties on many of the products we install in our homes. To name a few, we have Delta faucets, Lennox HVAC, Frigidaire Appliances, and Jetta tubs. Our shingles have a limited lifetime warranty by the manufacturer.
Trinity Brick and Acme Brick have a 100 year manufacturing warranty . The soil has a 5 year termite warranty from the time the soil is treated.
Typically you would not receive warranties of this caliber purchasing a used home.
