What To Look For With To Your Warranty

Chapter 7: What To Look For With To Your Warranty

Whether you’ve worked with a commercial painter before or are working with one for the first time, it’s useful to know what to look for with your warranty because not every warranty is the same. Our team at CertaPro Painters® of Indianapolis would like to share three things you can look for when comparing the warranties your bidding partners offer.

• Coverage. The painting or repair items included in your warranty, in case something were to happen or arise after your project’s completion.
• Time. The amount of time your warranty is valid and can be used to address any needs your buildings may have.
• Responsiveness. The estimated reaction time your property can expect if warranty-covered work is needed.

If you’re unclear about what’s covered in your warranty, its duration, or the responsiveness of each potential partner, you can always ask them to provide you with more information. You can also look for specifics about weather damage in your warranty to better understand what your coverage would look like in case of a bad storm.

It’s also critical that you get a written copy of your warranty, because, without that, it may be useless when you need to use it.

Note: If a bidding partner cannot provide you with a written warranty, that may be a red flag and something to take into account when selecting who to work with. In this case, you might ask other properties who’ve previously worked with them for a reference and see if they’ve experienced any warranty issues.

Now that you know what to look for with your warranty, it’s time for you to see some of the multi-family projects our team at CertaPro Painters® of Indianapolis has completed.
