Conciliation
If there are unresolved deficiencies at the end of the eighteen month “ Initial Builder Repair Period ”, the corporation may complete a “ Condominium Corporation Request for Conciliation ” from Tarion to determine whether the remaining items are covered by the warranty. The condominium corporation ’ s request for conciliation can be made at any time within 60 days following the end of the initial builder repair period. Once a request for conciliation has been made, the builder then has an additional ninety days to address all the outstanding items during the “ Pre - Conciliation Repair Period ”. If the builder does not resolve the outstanding items, Tarion will initiate the “ Conciliation Process ” and conduct an inspection. Any items Tarion deems warrantable will begin the “ Post - Conciliation Repair Period ” where the builder has up to ninety days to again resolve these items. Should any outstanding warrantable items exist after this phase, then Tarion will conduct a claim inspection and work directly with the corporation to complete the repairs and settle the claim. Conciliation is a challenging process for all parties involved and it is best to encourage a collaborative relationship between the Builder and Corporation to resolve claims during the “ Initial Builder Repair Period ”. In some cases, Builders can be uncooperative, and it is critical for the corporation to protect your claim and follow the Tarion process. ■
