RESIDENTIAL HARDWOOD WARRANTIES

Limited Warranties for Prefinished Solid, Engineered and Longstrip Floors

Manufacturing Defects

Mohawk* ("Mohawk") hereby warrants to the original buyer ("Buyer") the Mohawk

prefinished solid, engineered and longstrip hardwood floors (“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.

Finish Warranty

Mohawk hereby warrants to the Buyer that the factory applied finish of the Mohawk Wood

Floor will not wear through or will not lack finish adhesion as a result of normal use. See

product sample or your retailer for duration of this warranty on specific products.

Diminished gloss is not considered wear through of the finish. In the event the finish wears

through or releases from the Mohawk Wood Floor, Mohawk will, at its option, repair or

replace the affected planks or area, prorated over the remaining life of this warranty.

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.

Additional warranties exclusively for Prefinished Engineered and Longstrip Floors:

Structure Warranty

Mohawk hereby warrants to the Buyer of Mohawk engineered and longstrip wood

flooring 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 and longstrip wood

flooring products against moisture damage due to topical spills or subfloor 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

floor 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.
