On Site With National Home Warranty
Who is National Home Warranty?
What is home warranty?
A home warranty offers a homeowner protection for or against defects in materials, workmanship and the structural integrity of their home or condo.What do we do?
National Home Warranty has more inspectors, with more experience than any other provider in the province. National's inspectors conduct a series of inspections throughout the building process and work in partnership with builders to meet building code requirements as well as our own rigorous standards, to ensure trouble-free structures.National's inspectors work with builders and look for problems before they are 'built into' the structure. We conduct a review of plans and specifications before a multi-family project is actually registered with National. This process allows us to assess the risk potential in the geotechnical site conditions, general design, building envelope, building materials and other project components. Our findings from the review are shared with all industry professionals working on the project.
National will be required to attend the first project kick-off meeting at which time we will identify the construction phases when inspections by our inspection team will be required. National will provide a written observation report after each inspection.
What is our expertise?
National's inspectors have expertise in construction principles as well as regional concerns, such as water penetration issues or challenging soil conditions. They have worked in the residential construction industry and have excelled at their craft. Some are registered building officials and/or have a variety of skills and qualifications. Inspectors continue to receive ongoing specialized training throughout their careers.
