Warranty

UFP is not responsible for damage to UFP-Treated products where the wood has been sawn lengthwise or surfaced. Example: cutting stair stringers
from UFP-Treated lumber would invalidate this warranty.
UFP is not responsible for damage to UFP-Treated products caused by the “weathering” of wood, including but not limited to raised grain, splitting,
checking, twisting, warping, shrinkage, swelling, or any other physical property of the wood.
UFP is not responsible for any costs associated with removal of damaged wood product or delivery or installation of replacement UFP-Treated products.
UFP is not responsible for any incidental or consequential damages claimed to be a result of damaged or undamaged UFP-Treated products.
UFP is not responsible for corrosion of fasteners, hardware, or any other material, or any damage resulting from such an occurrence.
UFP is not responsible for delamination of plywood or other laminated wood products.
For the warranty to be valid, a brush-on endcoat wood preservative is required at the time of construction on all saw cuts and drill holes for
Douglas-fir and Hem-Fir treated wood products. Recommended endcoat wood preservatives include copper naphthenate, oxine copper, or zinc
naphthenate products. Important: follow the manufacturer’s directions for proper application.
HOW TO MAKE CLAIMS
To make a claim under the terms of this warranty, send a photograph and description of the damage along with the UFP-Treated product purchase
receipt(s) from your lumber dealer or contractor/builder. In addition UFP requires an itemized list of the damage to all UFP-Treated products and an
end tag from each piece of damaged treated wood. Send this information to:
Universal Forest Products
Attn: Legal Department
2801 East Beltline NE
Grand Rapids, MI 49525
UFP will, within sixty (60) days from the date of notice of your claim, and upon receipt of the proper documentation, make arrangements to exchange
the damaged wood products for the new UFP-Treated products. UFP reserves the right to have a representative inspect all wood which is claimed to
be damaged prior to its removal from services.
NOTE: THE ONLY OBLIGATION OF UFP UNDER THE TERMS OF THIS WARRANTY IS LIMITED TO REPLACEMENT OF DAMAGED
LUMBER OR THE MONETARY EQUIVALENT OF THE FAILED UFP-TREATED PRODUCT UP TO THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE PRICE
AT THE SOLE DISCRETION OF UFP.
UFP MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR
OTHERWISE. IN NO EVENT SHALL UFP BE LIABLE FOR INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES. NOTHING
IN THIS WARRANTY SHALL AFFECT THE DURATION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES BEYOND THEIR CUSTOMARY DURATION, OR CREATE
ADDITIONAL IMPLIED WARRANTIES.
Some states do not allow limitations on how long an implied warranty lasts or the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so
these limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights and you may also have other rights that vary from
state to state. This warranty is valid only in the United States.
