What the Fox Certified Contractors 20-Year Warranty Covers
The warranty follows a clear 1-2-10-20 timeline that addresses different risk levels over two decades. Year one provides full coverage on all workmanship, materials, and systems with no-cost repairs. Years two through ten protect major systems such as electrical, plumbing, heating, cooling, and ventilation. Years ten through twenty cover structural components including foundations, load-bearing walls, and framing.
| Phase | Duration | Coverage Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Full Workmanship | Year 1 | All materials, systems, and labor |
| Systems Protection | Years 2-10 | Electrical, plumbing, HVAC |
| Structural Integrity | Years 10-20 | Foundation, load-bearing walls, framing |
How StrucSure Home Warranty Partners with Fox Certified Contractors
According to StrucSure Home Warranty documentation, the A-rated policy includes additional reinsurance from Lloyd’s of London since 1997. This arrangement supports reliable claims handling and maintains coverage when ownership changes. The warranty transfers automatically to new owners, which strengthens resale value for Central Florida properties. Florida wind-load requirements of 140+ mph are addressed through structural design standards that align with the final coverage phase.
Construction Phase Protections Included with Every Project
Builder’s risk insurance through SHW Insurance Services LLC covers materials and the structure during active construction on eligible residential projects. This protection bridges the gap until the completed home activates the full StrucSure warranty Florida coverage.
Core Values That Make the Warranty Meaningful
Quality craftsmanship, on-time completion, and transparent communication reduce the chance of warranty claims while supporting fast resolutions. In one documented case, a plumbing issue reported in year seven was resolved under systems coverage with no out-of-pocket cost to the owner. A common mistake involves delaying reports of defects beyond the first-year workmanship window, which can limit remedies. Central Florida’s climate demands extra attention to HVAC and ventilation systems, areas explicitly protected in the middle coverage phase. Homeowners should document and report issues promptly to maximize benefits.
