Residential Warranty Details
Warranty Remedy
If your floor fails to perform as stated in the applicable General LVT Residential Limited Warranty, manufacturer will determine
whether it will assist in the repair of the defective area or supply new manufacturer material of the same color, design or grade
if available. If unavailable or discontinued, manufacturer reserves the right to select and supply similar manufacturer material.
At times, it may be necessary to contract a Certified Inspector to determine unknown causes; manufacturer reserves the right
to determine if this action is necessary or not.
1.
If manufacturer authorizes repairs or replacement of a section as a result of a warranty claim, you will be required to
clear any items placed over the affected area subsequent to the original installation. Manufacturer will not credit or
reimburse cost associated with the removal of those items.
2.
Manufacturer will reimburse reasonable labor costs (up to 100%) based on a detailed statement if professional
installation was paid for when the original floor was installed for years 1 and 2. For years 3 through 5, 50% of
reasonable labor costs will be reimbursed if professional installation was paid for when the original floor was installed.
After 5 years, there will be no reimbursement for installation labor.
3.
Labor reimbursement will not be considered for installations not adhering to the Residential LVT Click Installation
Guide*.
4.
Warranty coverage for a replacement floor will be limited to the remaining portion of the original warranty.

considered a site-related condition and the replacement floor will not be warranted against future discoloration or staining.
