Home Tips
Claysam Homes provide their customers with a homeowner's manual that details the construction and maintenance of the home at the pre-delivery inspection. This includes information by manufacturers of specific products used in the home, from exterior siding to floor tiles.
Owners of new homes should pay particular attention to the moisture level inside the home. Both excess and inadequate levels of humidity can pose problems to the materials in your new home. Please see Avoiding Moisture Damage for tips on maintaining proper humidity levels.
The Tarion Warranty Corporation has developed Home Maintenance Checklists. Each checklist
(Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter) includes a monthly breakdown of items for inspection, and are intended to assist homeowners to set up a regular schedule of check-ups and clean-ups.
Since the warranty does not cover damage resulting from improper maintenance, it is very important that new homeowners take time to learn how to protect their warranty by properly maintaining their home.
