PBK, A Builder's Warranty does not cover "acts of nature". A sinkhole is considered unpredictable, as are lightning strikes, tornados, etc. A Builder's Warranty in TV, just like everywhere else in the country, covers structural integrity of the home, workmanship, and supplies (such as shingles, drywall, flooring), etc. it does not protect you from Mother Nature. And in central Florida, sinkholes are a risk that you take.
