Rollex Corporation
warrants to the original homeowner that Rollex steel building
products are free from manufacturing defects and when used as
intended under conditions of ordinary wear will not peel, chip,
crack, split, flake or blister or have manufacturing defects which
cause deterioration of the steel substrate due to rust. Rollex
warrants for a period of 10 years from date of installation, that
color change in panels used as intended, will not vary more than
7 National Bureau of Standards units as measured on the Hunter
Color Difference Meter, and that chalk erosion will not exceed
a numerical rating of 6 for white and 8 for colors when measured
in accordance with A.S.T.M. D659-80
If a product
fails to perform in accordance with the above standards, after
written notification and validation of the condition by inspection,
Rollex Corporation will repair or replace at its option, any defective
product, assuming 100% of the cost. In the event of damage caused by hail during the warranty period, it is the homeowner's responsibility to pursue the costs related to replacement or repair of the damaged material through the homeowner's insurance coverage, or other applicable coverage. Should the homeowner incur cost that exceeds the insurance coverage, Rollex Corporation will reimburse the homeowner (excluding any insurance deductible) for any hail damaged material cost incurred in excess of the insurance coverage. Rollex will not be responsible for the cost of labor required to install new siding, which replaces any hail-damaged material. In no case will Rollex Corporation's cost exceed the value of the replacement material required to replace the hail-damaged material.
All warranty
claims shall be settled between the owner and Rollex. Rollex may
direct and pay a contractor to perform any remedial work under
this warranty.
The liability
of Rollex for a claim under this warranty shall not exceed the
purchase price including labor and taxes for the products involved.
