The Reality of Reno Warranty
Don’t let the length of the renovation warranty period affect your decision on which ID to choose, seriously.

When it comes to choosing an ID, many homeowners place a lot of weight on warranties.
On paper, they sound reassuring but often more than not, they mean less than you think.
Here’s the truth behind reno warranties.
Even without a written warranty period, a good and responsible ID will automatically come back and fix issues even because they care about their workmanship, reputation and clients.
Alternatively, if the ID is not committed, it doesn’t matter if the warranty says 3 years, 6 years or even 30 – chances are, they won’t be there no matter how hard you call.
Be careful of “Lifetime Warranties”
At first glance, it sounds like your ID is going the extra mile to guarantee quality and customer care. But let’s be practical — does it really mean that decades later, when a hinge comes loose, they’ll still show up to fix it? Unlikely lah…
This is often a sales tactic to make homeowners feel secure during the decision-making process. If both the salesperson and ID are saying and emphasizing it, that is a HUGE red flag.
Securing your reno
At the end of the day, don’t let warranties be the deciding factor, or even a factor, when choosing an ID. Focus on their attitude, their responsibility, how they manage their clients and whether their work speaks for themself.
