Custom Home Warranty
Long-Term Protection You Can Build On
A home should last longer than the mortgage used to build it. That expectation goes beyond materials and design. It requires a builder who stands behind the work long after move-in.
Lexar’s custom home warranty is built around that idea. It’s designed to provide long-term protection, clear accountability, and the confidence that your home is built to perform over time, not just pass inspection at closing.
What the Lexar Warranty Covers
Please Note: The warranty information provided on this page does not apply to the Founder’s Collection. The Founder’s Collection is backed by a different, strong and comprehensive warranty structure. For complete details about Founder’s Collection warranty coverage, please contact us directly.
Entire Home: 3-Year Coverage
Covers the full home from foundation to rooftop, including major components like roofing, windows, insulation, and systems. This level of coverage reflects confidence in the quality of the build from day one.
Mechanical Systems: 5-Year Coverage
Protects critical systems such as heating, plumbing, and electrical systems. These systems are essential to comfort and performance, and extended coverage helps reinforce long-term reliability.
Solar Panels: 12–25 Year Coverage
Covers solar equipment and production over time, supporting energy efficiency and long-term performance. This aligns with homes designed to perform beyond basic standards.
Structural Components: Limited Lifetime
Covers foundational and load-bearing elements for as long as you own the home. This is where long-term trust shows up most clearly, a commitment that extends far beyond closing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does Lexar’s custom home warranty cover?
The warranty covers the entire home, mechanical systems, solar components, and structural elements. This layered approach is designed to support performance, durability, and long-term livability.
Coverage extends beyond surface-level items, reinforcing that the home is built to perform well over time, not just at completion.
How long does the warranty last?
Coverage varies by category: 3 years for the full home, 5 years for mechanical systems, and limited lifetime coverage for structural components. Solar systems may include additional long-term performance protections.
This structure reflects a focus on long-term performance rather than short-term coverage.
What makes Lexar’s warranty different from other builders’?
Many builders offer warranties that meet minimum industry requirements. Lexar’s warranty is designed to go further, both in scope and duration, to reflect confidence in how the home is built.
It also reinforces accountability, showing that the builder stands behind the home well beyond closing.
What should homeowners expect after move-in?
After move-in, homeowners receive a maintenance guide along with documentation for systems and materials used throughout the home.
Ongoing care plays an important role in long-term performance, and clear guidance helps homeowners maintain their investment over time.
Does the warranty cover structural components?
Yes. Structural elements such as the foundation, framing, and load-bearing systems are covered by a limited lifetime warranty.
This level of coverage reflects a long-term commitment to the integrity and stability of the home.
What is not covered under a custom home warranty?
Coverage typically does not include normal wear and tear, lack of maintenance, or issues caused by modifications after construction.
Understanding what is included and excluded is important, and resources like the Federal Trade Commission provide helpful guidance on how home warranties generally work.
Do I need to maintain my home to keep the warranty valid?
Yes. As with most warranties, proper maintenance is required to keep coverage in effect. This includes following the provided maintenance guide and caring for systems as recommended.
Routine upkeep helps protect both your home and your warranty coverage.
Does the warranty transfer if I sell my home?
Transferability depends on the specific terms outlined in the warranty documentation. Some coverage may transfer to a new owner, which can add value when selling.
Reviewing these details early helps you understand the warranty’s long-term benefits.
How do I make a warranty claim?
If an issue arises, homeowners can contact the appropriate service or warranty contact provided at closing. Documentation and timelines will guide the review and resolution of claims.
Clear communication and documentation help ensure issues are addressed efficiently.
