Shaw reserves the right to repair any floor and/or to use its own source to obtain an installer for
replacement flooring. If Shaw repairs or replaces a floor as a result of a warranty claim, it is the
customer’s
responsibility
to be clear, at their own expense, any items placed over the affected areas
subsequent to the original installation. In the event that Shaw repairs a floor, this warranty shall
remain in effect with respect to such floor.
This limited residential wear warranty is made subject to the following
conditions:
The floor must be installed properly and according to Shaw installation guidelines.
The flooring must be used only indoors in a dry, climate controlled area.
The flooring must be maintained in accordance with Shaw care & maintenance
guidelines.
This limited warranty does not apply to damage caused by water or moisture in the
subfloor or underneath the flooring, including but not limited to damage from subfloor
hydrostatic pressure or other conditions that result in water or moisture being under
the floor. It does cover topical moisture. As long as the water does not flow over the
edge of the surface (edge of the room, cut boards, etc.) water will evaporate before
passing between the planks to the subfloor or damage the planks.
This limited warranty does not apply to Shaw moldings and trims.
Installation of flooring that contains any manufacturing defect is not covered by this
limited warranty.
