WHO IS COVERED

​

Grand Stone Veneer Manufacturing LTD warrants its products for 25 years to the original purchaser. These warranty beings upon date of purchase found on the issued invoice. This warranty is non transferable and applicable only to the original purchaser.

​

Subject to the following terms, Grand Stone Veneer (“GSV”) warrants under this express
limited warranty (“Warranty”) to the original purchaser and subsequent owners of its Grand Stone Veneer Manufacturing LTD brand manufactured stone or brick veneer (collectively, the “Product” or the “Products”) that for (25) years from the date of sale of the Product, the Product will not blister, peel, flake, delaminate or crack excessively (each, a “Defect”) as a result of manufacturing defects when used on structures (each, a “Structure”) conforming to local building codes and installed in accordance with the National Concrete Masonry Association’s written instructions issued before and closest in time to original date of the installation of the Product in the Structure. The definition of “veneer” contained in the International Building Code is determinative for purposes of establishing what Products constitute GST manufactured stone or brick veneer and are covered by this Warranty

​

In the event of a Defect, GST will, at its option, either: (1) pay the reasonable replacement cost of the defectively manufactured Product; (2) provide a replacement of the defective Product or a Product of a similar design; or (3) pay the reasonable cost for repair of the defective Product. This Warranty applies only to Products manufactured by GSV and does not apply to any other products or materials, including exterior walls, exterior wall envelopes, backing to which Products are secured, or waterresistive barriers.

​

This Warranty runs with the sale or transfer of the Structure into which the Products have been incorporated to subsequent owners of the Structure, but the warranty period as to such subsequent owners is limited to fifteen (15) years from the original date of sale of the Product.

​

No warranty whatsoever is made with respect to the manufacture or performance of materials or components of construction not sold or manufactured by GST, including, but not limited to, mortar, lath, weather resistant barriers, doors, windows, sealants, flashings, roofing, copings, sheathing and framing. Further, GST makes no warranties whatsoever with respect to aesthetics, design and engineering of the Structure into which Products are incorporated, or workmanship involved in the application of any Products warranted hereunder. The Product is not waterproof and should not be used on exterior or interior steps or risers.

Changes in the appearance of Products caused by normal weathering or efflorescence, which is a natural phenomenon of all concrete products, are also not considered manufacturing defects. Normal weathering is defined as exposure to sunlight and extremes of weather and atmosphere, which will cause any coloured surface to fade, chalk, or accumulate dirt or stains.

All stone veneer product must be stored indoor in dry, ventilated area before installation. Not containing lime, known as causing efflorescence mortar type must be used  .
