ROI Impact
A window and door warranty expiry alert system monitors warranty expiration dates in your customer database and automatically sends notifications 30-90 days before expiry, enabling timely inspections and claims while protecting customer investments.
How This Automation Works
Warranty Expiration Date Approaching → Multi-Channel Customer Notification Sent
Database Monitoring Initiates
The system performs daily scans of your customer database, comparing current dates against warranty expiration dates for all window and door installations. It identifies records where expiry falls within configured alert windows (90, 60, 30 days).
Customer Data Retrieval
When an upcoming expiration is detected, the system retrieves complete customer information including contact details, installation history, product specifications, warranty terms, communication preferences, and previous notification history to personalize the alert.
Notification Content Generation
The system dynamically generates a personalized message incorporating the customer's name, specific product details, installation date, exact expiration date, coverage summary, claim instructions, and scheduling links. Content is formatted for the customer's preferred communication channel.
Multi-Channel Alert Delivery
The notification is sent via email, SMS, or both based on customer preferences. The message includes embedded links for inspection scheduling, downloadable warranty documents, claim forms, and direct contact options. Delivery is tracked for confirmation.
Internal Team Notification
Simultaneously, your service team receives an internal alert with customer details, warranty information, and anticipated inspection requests. This enables proactive scheduling capacity planning and ensures technicians are prepared to handle warranty-related service calls.
Response Tracking and Follow-up
The system monitors customer responses, scheduling requests, and engagement with notification content. For non-responders, it triggers reminder sequences at subsequent intervals. All interactions are logged in your CRM for complete communication history and reporting.
How It Works
Window and door warranties typically last 5-20 years, but tracking hundreds of expiry dates manually leads to missed claims and unhappy customers. This automation monitors warranty expiration dates across your entire customer base and sends proactive alerts to homeowners, property managers, and your service team. By notifying customers 30, 60, and 90 days before expiry, you enable timely inspections, documentation of issues, and warranty claims before coverage lapses. The system pulls data from your CRM or project management database, calculates upcoming expirations, and triggers personalized email or SMS notifications with warranty details, claim instructions, and inspection scheduling links. This proactive approach strengthens customer relationships, reduces liability exposure, and positions your company as a trusted advisor who protects customer investments long after installation.
The Trigger
The system monitors your customer database daily and identifies any window or door warranty with an expiration date within your configured timeframe (typically 30, 60, or 90 days). When a warranty crosses this threshold, the trigger activates to initiate the notification sequence.
The Action
An automated, personalized message is sent to the customer via their preferred communication channel (email, SMS, or both). The notification includes warranty details, expiration date, claim filing instructions, inspection scheduling options, and your contact information. Simultaneously, your service team receives an internal alert to prepare for potential inspection requests.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Automation
Industry best practice recommends sending the first alert 90 days before expiry, followed by reminders at 60 and 30 days.
