Hardwood Flooring

Prime Supply Warranty Information

Who is covered?

All warranties in this Limited Warranty Guide are given only to the original purchaser of our product. Our warranties are not transferable.

What is covered and for how long?

The limited warranties are subject to the product applications, limitations, disclaimers and exclusions described below. All warranties run from the date of purchase for the applicable period.

What are you responsible for under our warranties?

To be covered under our warranties, make sure that the flooring is properly installed in accordance with NWFA installation standards for the relative flooring type. Retain all sales slips for the flooring, appropriate adhesives and retain proof of pre-installation moisture test results. You must also properly care for your new floor using the proper maintenance schedule and products. We recommend that you use only specially formulated hardwood floor care products to preserve your flooring. Using floor care products other than specially formulated products for hardwood flooring may damage your floor and void this warranty.

What will we do if any of the covered events occur?

If any of the covered events listed in this guide occurs within the warranty periods specified for the respective flooring product, we will recoat, refinish, fill or furnish comparable flooring (of our manufacture and of similar color, pattern, and quality), for either the repair of the defective area or the replacement of the floor, at our option. In the unlikely event that we are unable to correct the problem after a reasonable number of attempts, we will refund the portion of the purchase price for the section of failed flooring. These warranties do not include removal or replacement of cabinets and other fixtures. We will replace or repair such flooring no more than once, which is your exclusive remedy under this warranty. If the replacement or repair fails in the same manner a second time, the site conditions will be deemed unacceptable for the installation of our hardwood floors. These are the exclusive remedies under this warranty if a defect or other warranted condition occurs. We reserve the right to verify any claims or defect by inspection and have samples removed for technical analysis.

Warranties

Lifetime Structural Integrity Warranty: We warrant that the covered products, in their original manufactured condition, will be free from defects in grading, lamination and assembly for as long as you (the original purchaser) own the floor. Engineered floors lamination is covered under warranty under normal residential use and only if they are not exposed to excessive moisture. This warranty does not cover the normal expansion and contraction of wood flooring due to seasonal changes. Cupping or buckling due to excessive moisture or humidity is not covered under warranty

25 yr. Residential Finish Warranty: We warrant to you (the original purchaser) that for the period indicated, the finish on the covered product will not wear through, and that the finish will not separate from the wood flooring under normal household use when maintained in accordance with our recommended maintenance guidelines.

Pre-installation Defects Warranty: We warrant that the covered products meet our quality standards. You or your installer should carefully inspect the products before installation for any milling, dimension or visual defects. Since wood is a natural product, there will be natural variations in color, tone and grain that are not covered by this warranty. The pre-installation warranty expires upon installation.
