Warranty

What Will Bruce Do If Any Of The Things Listed Above Happen to a Commercial
Warranted Product?
If you make a claim and follow our service procedures within the first year after date of
purchase Bruce will provide materials either to repair or replace the defective area of
the floor at our option. If the floor was professionally installed, Bruce also will pay
reasonable labor costs to repair or replace the defective area of your floor.
If you make a claim after the first year after date of purchase and before the end of your
limited warranty period, Bruce will provide or pay a percentage of the reasonable
material and labor costs (if the floor was professionally installed), for repair or
replacement, at our option, of the warranted product. This percentage will be based on
the number of years from the date of purchase and remaining warranty period of the
product, up to 10 years after date of purchase. For example, for a professionally
installed product, which is covered by a 10 year warranty, Bruce will pay 8/10th (or
80%) of the reasonable material and labor costs on an approved claim submitted 2
years after the date of purchase.
NOTE: Any repair or replacement is limited to colors and styles of products available at
the time of repair or replacement. If the original design is no longer available, Bruce has
the right to substitute another Bruce design of similar value. The product must be of a
similar structure and the customer may choose the design.
