Luck has nothing too with it! NH law requires 1 year warranty, if a repair is required and the builder refuses, hire someone else to do the repair and send the original builder the bill. If they refuse to pay that, then take them to court and force them to pay or have a lien placed against them. You have to allow them the first option to remedy the situation, even if you can't stand to look at the builder anymore.
A year is not a long time, but it is something and there are quite a few contractors that offer warranties greater than a year. Also, help yourself out and have the installation verified that it has been done to manufacturer spec, this way you have further protection down the road if you need to go after the manufacturer for a material warranty.
