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.
