# Warranty Tracking & Documentation

Warranty work is the intersection of legal obligation, customer satisfaction, and business opportunity. Most trades businesses handle warranties reactively — a customer calls with a complaint and you figure out if it is covered. A proactive approach using AI-generated documentation and tracking systems transforms warranty management from a headache into a strategic advantage.

Creating Warranty Documents

Most customers do not read your contract's warranty section. They remember what you said verbally, which leads to disputes. AI helps you create a separate, clear warranty summary:

I am a [trade] and I need a customer-facing warranty document for [type of work]. Our warranty terms are:
- Workmanship warranty: [duration, e.g., "2 years"]
- Material warranty: [duration and source, e.g., "manufacturer's warranty, typically 5-10 years"]

Create a one-page warranty summary that:
1. Clearly states what IS covered (our workmanship, proper installation)
2. Clearly states what is NOT covered (misuse, normal wear, acts of nature, other contractors' work)
3. Explains the process for making a warranty claim
4. Lists what voids the warranty (unauthorized modifications, lack of maintenance)
5. Includes the customer's maintenance responsibilities
6. Uses plain language a homeowner can understand
