Choose a Builder of Integrity
When looking for a new home, it’s important to choose a builder of integrity. When you see a homebuilder that displays the QBW logo, you can look no further. This builder provides the QBW 10-year warranty on his homes and has been carefully screened for technical knowledge, craftsmanship, and financial stability.
The 10-year new home warranty industry began in the United States in 1975 as a method to restore integrity to the homebuilding industry. The federal legislature’s pending regulations were avoided with the creation of a warranty industry that would do business with only the best builders. Although several companies in this industry have strayed from those principles since that time, QBW has maintained the original intent of the industry by continuing to do business with only those builders who hold the highest standards of quality construction and customer service.
