Our Commitment To Being Better Builders

There’s only one thing more satisfying than building a high-quality home and that’s surprising our homeowners with our strong commitment to customer service.

From the first handshake to the last, we guide you through the process of building your dream home. Even after settlement, your relationship with Schell Brothers continues. Our Warranty Service Team will be there for you long after the ink is dry at settlement.

Homeowner’s Guide

At the Home Orientation, we provide a comprehensive homeowner’s Guide specific to each customer’s home. This resource answers many common questions, such as use and maintenance guidelines, troubleshooting tips and emergency information.

As you settle into your home during the first year, you may find items that need further adjustment. In addition, you may have questions about the Limited Warranty, home maintenance, proper operation of the appliances, heating and air conditioning, or other home systems. Many of these items are included in this Guide and online. We also want to assure you that the Warranty Service staff at Schell Brothers is available to assist you in these areas.

For Emergency Service, please refer to our Emergency Service procedures.

For Appliance Service, please refer to our Appliance Service procedures.

As your builder, we know your home’s design and construction both inside and out.

Schell Brothers’ full commitment to our homeowners makes us truly a ‘better builder.’

Warranty Services

Schell Brothers is known for providing outstanding Warranty Service. While many builders rely solely on their subcontractor to provide post-settlement service, Schell Brothers has an entire department dedicated to assisting our homeowners. Warranty Service Requests can be submitted through our online portal and our team of professional coordinators and technicians will be ready to assist you.

Limited Warranty

To show our homeowners our true commitment to customer satisfaction and quality building, we offer a consumer friendly Limited Warranty which clearly describes both the homeowner’s and Schell Brothers’ responsibilities throughout the warranty period.

Many customers assume that once their home has been completed, their builder “disappears” from their life. At Schell Brothers, we consider that unfinished business.
