All homes, regardless of the builder experience normal issues including (and not limited to) settlement, natural wear and tear, shrinkage and deterioration through such elements as weather and environmental conditions, and overall family living. Our display homes experience the same environmental and wear-and-tear issues. Due to this, Langdon Building maintains an excellent standard of display home presentation by employing regular maintenance practices, which we are pleased to share with you throughout this Warranty & Maintenance Guide.

FAQ Q. What is considered natural wear and tear?
A. Natural wear and tear is damage that naturally and inevitably occurs as a result of normal use or aging.
Q. If I am not happy with the quality finish at the end of construction, am I entitled to question the quality of this item at Warranty Inspection?
A. Yes, you are entitled to question this in your warranty inspection, but further investigation may be required by the Quality Assurance Manager with the Construction Supervisor to ensure the level of finish is consistent with the house at the time of handover.
Q. The display home paintwork seems to be of a higher quality and level of finish that my own home. Why is that?
A. Our display homes experience much higher levels of traffic than a normal home. Because Langdon Building wants them to be consistently at their best they are regularly repainted, which exceeds our normal three coat paint system.
