The safety of you, your family and your home is of the utmost importance to us. In the event of
an emergency, please check the emergency tips under the appropriate category in your Homeowner's Manual
such as air conditioning, electrical, water heater and plumbing. Often the appropriate action by you
can solve the problem immediately or mitigate the situation until a technician arrives.
If those tips do not solve the problem, during our normal business hours (Monday-Friday, 8:00 a.m. to
5:00 p.m.), call our Customer Service department at (559) 256-7000. After business hours or on weekends
or holidays, contact the appropriate trade or utility company directly using the Emergency Contact Information
list which is included in the Contact Information section of your Homeowner Manual or
click here to print out the Emergency Contact Information now.
Kitchen appliances are warranted by their manufacturer, generally for one year from your closing date.
The manufacturers of these appliances have asked to work directly with homeowners if any repairs are needed
for their products. If a kitchen appliance is in need of service, please contact directly the appliance manufacturer
to schedule a service appointment by an authorized service technician. Customer service phone numbers are listed in
the use and care materials for each appliance or on the CD in your Homeowner's Manual. Be prepared to provide the
model and serial numbers of the item and the closing date on your home.
We want you to know that we stand for quality and for providing you with excellent customer service. For your protection,
our customer service system is based on your written report of non-emergency items. Emergency reports are the only service
requests we accept by phone. Service Request forms can be mailed, faxed, hand delivered to our main office or sent by email
to us via our website. For your convenience, Service Request forms can be found in your Homeowner's Manual or you can print
or send one via email from our online Service Request page.
Are stucco, drywall, grout and tile cracks normal?
Yes, stucco, drywall, grout and tile will crack and is to be expected. There are many different materials
used in the construction of a home. Most building materials are subject to expansion and contraction due to
changes in temperature and humidity. This is especially true of drywall. Due to this expansion, as well as the
natural shrinkage which takes place at the time the material sets, it is inevitable that some cracks may appear
in drywall. As part of our commitment to service, we offer a complimentary eleven month touch-up visit for normal
items like nail pops, drywall, grout and tile separations.
What steps should I take if my electrical outlets are not functioning?
Check to see if a wall switch controls power to the receptacle.
At the affected outlet, first make sure everything is unplugged and then reset the GFI switch that corresponds
to that outlet (GFI switches are generally located in the laundry room, one bathroom and garage). If that doesn't
work, check the breaker at the electrical box on the side of the house and switch the breaker to the "off" position
and then reset to the "on" position. Test the outlet by plugging in an electrical item. If the above steps fail to
correct the problem, please contact our Customer Service department.
If the power switch is off in the attic to the exhaust fan(s) then lights in the bathrooms and the laundry room will
not work; this is set as a reminder for the power to be turned back on to the fan.
