Warranty FAQ

Yes, it’s completely normal for bricks to have some mortar stain. In fact, repeatedly cleaning the brick may damage its finish. Additionally, chips and cracks are not considered defects, but rather a regular occurrence.

Overtime, as your home settles, you may hear squeaks from time to time. But this is no need to worry.

Minor concrete cracks happen naturally and are not a sign of a construction flaw.

We supply small amounts of excess paint whenever possible for touching up scratches, nicks, etc. StyleCraft also offers a one-time only nail-pop and paint touch-up service, during which we fix nail pops and settlement cracks, and then re-paint the area as long as it’s a standard StyleCraft paint.

Hairline cracks in walls and ceilings are part of a new home’s settling process, and not considered construction defects. You may fill these cracks in with a number of readily available products. Please note that StyleCraft offers a one-time nail-pop touch-up service, where we will fix nail pops and settlement cracks that occur after move-in.

Part of the attraction of vinyl flooring is its softness and comfort, but this also means that it’s susceptible to damage.

First off, you may notice some very superficial markings on the marble or laminate from the manufacturing process. This is perfectly normal. That said, you’ll want to keep sharp objects, abrasive items, and any heat sources away from the countertops. Additionally, try and ensure that no standing water gathers on the countertop.

Although granite countertops are extremely durable, they are porous and need to be sealed annually to be considered stain-resistant. Quartz countertops are as strong as granite but are non-porous, meaning that they never need to be sealed. To maintain the beauty of your granite or quartz, keep sharp objects and abrasive items away from countertops, and promptly clean up any spills to prevent standing water or stains. Although both materials are heat-resistant, you should use trivets or hot pads on countertops to prevent any potential chips or cracks from direct heat sources.
