Pacific Warranty Coverage & Claims


Coverage

Pacific Home Warranty provides new home warranty insurance protection that meets or exceeds the requirements of the Homeowner Protection Act. Their home warranties are provided by leading national insurance companies. In addition, Pacific Home Warranty acts as the administrator to ensure that every policy is interpreted fairly (click for PDF).

The Pacific Home Warranty Program is designed to specifically protect new home buyers. They represent excellence and can assure that Straight Up has met high standards of accountability in the areas of finance, construction and customer satisfaction.

1 Year Materials & Labour Warranty

Homes enrolled in the Pacific program will be worry free in the first year as they warrant against defects (items that do not conform with warranty standards) in workmanship and materials that may occur during the first year after completion.


2 Year Mechanical Systems Warranty

In the second year, the warranty extends to the crucial mechanical systems that keep the home comfortable. Pacific provides coverage for any defect in materials and labour supplied for the gas, electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning delivery systems as well as the exterior cladding, caulking, windows and doors.


5 Year Building Envelope Warranty

Pacific Home Warranty includes coverage for the many elements that provide protection to what is called the “building envelope” for five years. Pacific Home Warranty warrants against water penetration and a number of other hazards that threaten the comfort and beauty of a new home.


10 Year Structural Defect Warranty

Pacific Home Warranty protects the very heart of the home’s structure for 10 full years. We cover any defect in materials and labour that results in a failure of the load bearing components of the home or the structural damage that might result from such a failure.


Living Out Allowance Coverage

This warranty will ensure families have a place to live if they have to move out of their home because of a structural defect. Pacific will reimburse reasonable expenses incurred for hotel rooms while the home is unlivable up to $100 per day.


$200,000 Total Policy Limit

The Pacific Home Warranty provides total aggregate coverage with a limit of $200,000. They believe builders like Straight Up are the best in the industry and back them with the highest level of consumer protection, helping the homebuyer get a good night’s sleep.
