I purchased a model home in Stoneridge, Carlsbad, San Diego County in 2007.
We are still well within the statute of the builder's obligation period (ten years) for warranty of construction. Myself as well as many of the communities neighbors have experienced troubles with our windows.

They were VERY cheap and many have trouble with latches, with the interior rails (so the windows are slumping to one side or the other and are difficult to open and shut) and with debris and fog and paint overspray that is trapped inside the dual panes...so that NO amount of cleaning will make a difference! In a nutshell, these windows are DEFECTIVE!!!!!!

All of us have placed Service Requests which either go unanswered or we're told that "...these windows were installed by a 'sub-contractor' and that sub has since gone out of business, so we're sorry but we are unable to help you!' OR 'the 10 year warranty has been exceeded, so the builder is no longer liable!'

Windows are a very large investment and when we were tired of looking out of our two primary view windows located in our Family Room, we had them and one other window in a guest bedroom that you virtually could not see out of, replaced at our costs to the tune of nearly $1,500!!!! And we have at least 11 additional windows that are terribly defective!!!!!!

WARNING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DO NOT BUY FROM THIS BUILDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They use cheap products!

They do NOT stand by their work!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They will NOT honor their warranty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ONCE THEY HAVE YOUR MONEY YOU WILL GET NO SATISFACTION WITH MAJOR (or minor) CONSTRUCTION DEFECTS & ISSUES!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whatever you do, DO NOT BUY A WARMINGTON HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
