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.
Owner/Installer has up to 30 days from the time of installation and a visual defect is spotted
to file a claim.
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. 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 Hardwood floors 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 officer of MOHAWK. If there is a conflict between these general terms and
conditions and the terms and conditions of the warranties as specified, the terms and
conditions of the warranties specified 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.
