Underlayment

For HomeLike products which have a pre-attached underlayment, do not install over carpet or any additional underlayment. Use of additional underlayment pad will cause flexion and will void warranty. 6 mil poly vapor barrier is needed when installing over concrete subfloors.

 

Pet Friendly Warranty

HomeLike warrants that this flooring will resist permanent staining caused by pet urine (domestic cat or dog) when thoroughly cleaned. Urine must be cleaned immediately and not be allowed to dry.

 

 

Warranty Exclusions

The owner/installer must inspect the color, finish and quality of the flooring prior to installation.

HomeLike is not responsible for labor costs incurred for flooring installed with visible defects. Isolated floor squeaks are not a defect and are not covered under warranty. This warranty does not cover damage caused by improper installation, negligence, water erosion, abrasion, extreme heat or temperature, cleaning care or maintenance contrary to written instructions provided by HomeLike. This warranty does not cover physical abuse or misuse, indentation, scratching, impact, cutting, freight damage, alteration or any wear or damage caused by acts of God. This warranty does not apply if product is installed in areas where condensation repeatedly occurs, or any other areas contrary to the recommendations of HomeLike, including, but not limited to, exterior applications, unstable/improper subfloors, or areas exposed to excessive topical and ground moisture. The floor plank or tile is warranted to be 100% waterproof and the structural integrity of the floor plank or tile will not be significantly diminished by exposure to water for the life of the product. While moisture will not affect the floor’s integrity, it is probable that, when excessive moisture accumulates in buildings are on building materials, mold and/or mildew growth can occur (particularly if the moisture problem remains undiscovered and unaddressed). The moisture warranty excludes damage resulting from mold and/or mildew growth due to prolonged exposure to moisture. In a prolonged flood situation, the product should be uninstalled to avoid such moisture. Protective pads should be used under furniture legs, and mats should be used under any chairs with rolling casters. Pet urine must be wiped up and not allowed to dry. For the Lifetime Residential warranty, if a claim is made and approved after 1 year of purchase, HomeLike will pay a pro‐rated percentage of material cost, determined by the number of years from the date of purchase and the remaining period up to 50 years. For example, if the claim is made 20 years after the original purchase, then HomeLike will pay 60% (30/50th) of the material. If the claim is made 50 years or more after the purchase, HomeLike will provide you, the original purchaser, with a 5% discount on material only on your next purchase of a HomeLike flooring product. If professionally installed, reasonable labor may be paid for claims within 36 months from the date of purchase. No labor will be paid after 36 months.

For the 15 Year Commercial warranty, if a claim is made and approved after 1 year of purchase, HomeLike will pay a pro‐rated percentage of material cost, determined by the number of years from the date of purchase and the remaining period up to 15 years. For example, if the claim is made 6 years after the original purchase, then HomeLike will pay 60% (9/15th) of the material. If professionally installed, reasonable labor may be paid for claims within 36 months from the date of purchase. No labor will be paid after 36 months.

For the 10 Year Commercial warranty, if a claim is made and approved after 1 year of purchase, HomeLike will pay a pro‐rated percentage of material cost, determined by the number of years from the date of purchase and the remaining period up to 10 years. For example, if the claim is made 6 years after the original purchase, then HomeLike will pay 40% (4/10th) of the material. If professionally installed, reasonable labor may be paid for claims within 36 months from the date of purchase. No labor will be paid after 36 months.

HomeLike excludes and will not pay incidental or consequential damages under this warranty. By this we mean any loss, expense, or damages other than to the flooring itself that may result from a defect in the flooring. No implied warranties extend beyond the term of this written warranty. HomeLike assumes no liability for incidental or consequential damages. Some states do not allow the exclusion of limitation for incidental or consequential damages. In that case, these exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights that vary from state to state. HomeLike reserves the right to have a representative inspect the floor and remove samples for additional evaluation if needed. No installer, retailer, agent or employee of HomeLike has the authority to increase or alter the obligations or limitations of this warranty.

 

For Warranty Service 

To make a claim, you may: 1) Contact your HomeLike retailer no later than 30 days after the discovery of the defect. Proof of purchase is required. Your retailer will assist in coordinating a resolution of your claim. OR: 2) Contract a certified independent inspector. The inspector should submit a copy of the inspection report directly to your HomeLike retailer for consideration. Note that while independent inspections are credible and usually reliable, the final decision rests solely with HomeLike. Only certified inspectors approved in writing, in advance by HomeLike will be considered.
