We don't disappear after move-in.
Most builders hand you a set of keys and wish you luck. We hand you a maintenance roadmap, a documentation package no other builder provides, and ongoing access to the people who know your home best.
Your home, documented.
Every Iron & Oak home comes with a level of documentation that most homeowners never receive. Not a folder of appliance brochures. A complete record of how your home was built, what's behind the walls, and how to take care of all of it.
Documentation package
- As-built drawings updated for any field changes
- Electrical panel schedule and circuit map
- MEP locations documented (what's behind every wall)
- Product data binder: warranties, model numbers, paint colors, material specs
- Timestamped construction photo archive from every phase
- Subcontractor contact list
Maintenance roadmap
- Seasonal maintenance calendar written for your specific home
- System-by-system care guide: HVAC filters, water heater flushing, exterior caulking, gutters, and more
- Michigan-specific seasonal tasks: winterization, spring thaw checks, sump pump testing
Warranty
- Workmanship warranty on all Iron & Oak construction
- One point of contact for any warranty claim, with a prompt response
- All manufacturer warranties organized and registered on your behalf
Five years from now, when you need to know what paint color is on the guest bedroom walls or which breaker controls the kitchen island outlets, you'll have the answer in 30 seconds.
Annual maintenance coordination
For homeowners who want their home maintained at the level it was built, without having to manage it themselves. We coordinate everything with the same trusted trades who built your home.
Annual home health inspection
We walk through your home once a year and identify maintenance items before they become problems.
Seasonal maintenance coordination
We schedule and manage trusted service providers for routine tasks: HVAC servicing, gutter cleaning, exterior inspections, and more.
Priority scheduling
You get preferred access to our trade partner network. The same people who built your home are the ones servicing it.
Maintenance log
A documented record of every maintenance action performed on your home. Valuable for insurance, resale, and peace of mind.
A well-maintained home holds its value. A well-documented home holds its value even better.
When it's time to sell, refinance, or insure your home, having a complete maintenance history and as-built documentation puts you in a different position than most homeowners. We think about your home's next 30 years, not just its first 30 days.
