Monarch Homes Last a Lifetime!
A Lifetime of Warranties
Every Monarch Home comes standard with many warranties, including the 2-10 New Home Warranty Program. Unlike others offered and backed only by the builder, the 2-10 New Home Warranty Program provides you as a homeowner with comprehensive protection and peace of mind, providing up-front details on exactly what the warranty covers (below).
A Lifetime of Warranties on Quality Products
Foundation Waterproofing System—10 Year Warranty
Monarch Homes uses a foundation spray waterproofing system, ensuring your basement stays dry. This is also backed by a 3rd party 10 year warranty from the manufacturer’s certified installer.
Exterior Façade: ProVia® Manufactured Stone– Lifetime (Limited) Warranty and
Alside® Siding Products—Lifetime (Limited) Warranty
Our exteriors are expertly finished using ProVia Manufactured Stone and Alside® siding products (per plan). Our exteriors are designed to be low maintenance, durable, and long lasting for your convenience and peace of mind.
LP TopNotch350 Subflooring— 50 Year Warranty
Monarch Homes uses a high quality, premium subflooring, which includes a 50-year warranty and a
200-day no sand guarantee. This subflooring has water channels built in to drain water quickly
when it rains during the framing phase. We also nail, glue, and screw down each subfloor panel,
sand the edges, and also screw down each interior wall to prevent floor and wall squeaking. We
also use REAL WOOD dimensional lumber in the construction of the entire home including floor systems (no engineered floor systems that are bouncy), adding to the stability and soundness of our homes.
CertainTeed® Landmark Dimensional Roof Shingles—Lifetime (Limited) Warranty
Monarch Homes roof shingles are considered one of the most durable in the industry. With a
lifetime limited warranty from the manufacturer, these dual-layer shingles are rated with a
Class 3 impact resistance and Class A fire resistance, they are designed to provide durability
and aesthetics.
Silver LineTM Windows and Pella® Sliding Glass Doors—Lifetime (Limited) Warranty
Monarch Homes is proud to offer Silver Line Windows and Pella Sliding Glass Doors, some of the most recognized quality brands for windows and sliding glass doors in the industry. The windows and sliding glass doors that we use come with lifetime limited warranties, and are dual-paned Low-E glass for maximum energy efficiency.
