What warranty comes with a new home in British Columbia?

Most new homes in British Columbia must be covered by third-party home warranty insurance under the Homeowner Protection Act. The standard is 2-5-10 coverage: two years on materials and labour, five years on the building envelope and ten years on the structure. Ask the builder for the warranty provider and the policy details.
