Residential Hardwood Warranties
Limited Warranties for Mohawk Engineered Hardwood Floors
Manufacturing Defects
Mohawk* (“Mohawk”) hereby warrants to the original buyer (“Buyer”) the Mohawk Engineered Hardwood oors (“Mohawk Wood Floors”) to be
free from manufacturing defects for as long as Buyer owns the home. Hardwood is a natural product and may have naturally occurring variations
in grain and color, mineral streaks and knots. The owner/installer of a Mohawk Wood Floor must use reasonable selectivity and hold out or cut off
objectionable naturally occurring blemishes prior to installation. Owner/Installer has up to 30 days from the time of installation and a visual defect is
spotted to le a claim.
Finish Warranty
Mohawk hereby warrants to the Buyer that the factory applied nish of the Mohawk Wood Floor will not wear through or will not lack nish adhesion
as a result of normal use. See product sample or your retailer for duration of this warranty on specic products. Diminished gloss is not considered
wear through of the nish. In the event the nish wears through or releases from the Mohawk Wood Floor, Mohawk will, at its option, repair or
replace the affected planks or area. This Limited Lifetime Residential Warranty is pro rata. A pro rata warranty is one that provides a refund or credit
and decreases according to a set formula as the warranty period progresses. The original warranty value is reduced by the amount of time that you
own it. When a claim is made, the value of the warranty becomes a percentage of ownership per year based upon the warranty period. The Limited
Lifetime Residential Warranty is prorated over 33 years. Any services that are provided as part of this warranty do not extend the warranty period.
This limited residential warranty does not apply to Cabin grade or other downgraded or discontinued MOHAWK Wood oors and any such product(s)
that are sold “as is”. Any and all representations, promises, warranties or statements by MOHAWK or its agents that differs in this manner from the
terms of this limited warranty shall be of no force or effect unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized ofcer of MOHAWK. If there is a conict
between these general terms and conditions and the terms and conditions of the warranties as specied, the terms and conditions of the warranties
specied shall control.
This warranty is conditioned upon Mohawk’s receipt of notice in writing from the Buyer of the alleged defect prior to expiration of the limited warranty
period and evidence that the Mohawk Wood Floor is not subject to any of the limitations described below.
Structure Warranty
Mohawk hereby warrants to the Buyer of Mohawk Engineered Hardwood products that, under normal use, the plies will not separate for as long as
the Buyer owns the home. Mohawk will, at its option, repair or replace any defective planks at no cost to the Buyer.
Moisture Warranty
Mohawk hereby warrants to the Buyer of Mohawk Engineered Hardwood products against moisture damage due to topical spills or suboor moisture
for as long as the Buyer owns the home. Topical spills of normal household substances (food and beverage) must be removed promptly. Topical spills
allowed to remain on the oor for any considerable time will damage the Mohawk Wood Floor and void this warranty. Flooding, acts of God, plumbing
accidents, leaking appliances (icemakers, dishwashers, clothes washers, etc.) are not topical spills and are not covered by this warranty.
