Every province and the Yukon Territory have programs guaranteeing that any defects in a new home will be repaired if the builder fails to do so. These programs ensure that homeowners are protected against construction defects. However, there are currently no such programs in Nunavut or the Northwest Territories. This warranty provides peace of mind for new homeowners, ensuring their investment is safeguarded.
