What is the difference between the 30 Day and 11 month list?

30 Day 

The 30 day list is for functional items covered under warranty that need to be addressed before the 11 month list. These items include exterior or interior door adjustment or sprinkler adjustment. 

11 Month List

The 11 month list is for cosmetic items that your warranty covers for a ONE time repair. This is for any drywall and caulking touch-ups that are covered under your warranty. Paint will come after drywall to touch-up any repairs made. There are a couple experts below for some common items we see on 11 month lists.

7.2 GYPSUM WALLBOARD

OBSERVATION: Drywall cracks  over door/window frames or archways, blisters in tape, excess compound in joints, exposed corner beads, nail pops, or trowel marks.  

DEFICIENCY: Slight Defects, such as occasional nail pops, seam lines and cracks are common to gypsum wallboard installation. Blisters in tape, cracks over door and window frames and over archways, excess compound in joints, trowel marks, excessive nail popping and exposed corner bead are Deficiencies. Nail pops are a Deficiency only when there are signs of spackling compound cracking or falling away. Depressions or slight mounds at nail heads are not considered Deficiencies.

BUILDER CORRECTION: The Builder shall correct such Defects to the acceptable tolerance and repaint areas to match as closely as possible one time only during the first-ear of warranty coverage. Such conditions should be corrected toward the end of the first-year of warranty coverage to allow for normal settlement of the Home.

7.3 HARD SURFACE FLOORING (FLAGSTONE, MARBLE, QUARRY/CERAMIC TILE, ETC.)

OBSERVATION: Cracks appear in grouting of ceramic tile joints or at junctions with other building components such as, but not limited to, a bathtub, shower, or a countertop.

DEFICIENCY: Cracks in grouting of ceramic tile joints are Deficiencies. Re-grouting of these cracks is a maintenance responsibility of the Homeowner after the Builder has re-grouted once. Open cracks or loose grouting where the wall surface abuts the flashing lip at a tub, shower basin or countertop are considered Homeowner maintenance and any resultant damage to other finish surfaces due to leaks, etc. are not considered Deficiencies.

BUILDER CORRECTION: The Builder shall repair grouting as necessary one time only during the first year of warranty coverage.
