The above is correct. You do not say where in the garage you have water. It has nothing to do with gutters. Gutters are optional but recommended. Is there any signs of water intrusion on the ceiling or wall adjacent to the front entry? Often this is a flashing issue where the two meet. Is it by the garage door? If so it could simply be coming from rain hitting the garage door and seeping in.Is it near the Utility closet? It could be from the condensate line of the A/C. I have even seen where some folks think they have a leak when it was just from the car's a/c.

In any event, if the home is new, call the warranty department at 352-753-6222.
