Read the Terms of Our Warranty

1. Subject to the following terms, Sculptured Stone Inc. warrants to the original purchaser and subsequent owners that for 20 years from the date of sale its Sculptured Stone Inc. manufactured stone or brick veneer (collectively referred to in the remainder of this document as the “product” or the “products”) will not blister, peel, flake, delaminate or crack excessively, as a result of manufacturing defects when used on structures conforming to local building codes and installed in accordance with the Masonry Veneer Manufacturer’s Association written instructions issued before and closest in time to the beginning of the project. Sculptured Stone Inc. will, at its option, either: (1) pay the reasonable replacement cost of the defectively manufactured products (2) provide a replacement of the defective product or pay the reasonable cost for a replacement product of a similar design; or (3) pay the reasonable cost for repair of the defective product. This limited warranty applies only to products constituting stone or brick veneer manufactured by Sculptured Stone Inc.; it does not apply to any other products or materials, including exterior walls, exterior wall envelopes, backing to which Sculptured Stone Inc. veneer is secured or water-resistive barriers. The definition of “veneer” contained in the International Building Code is determinative for purposes of establishing what products constitute Sculptured Stone Inc. manufactured stone or brick veneer and are covered by this warranty. 
2. This Limited Warranty is not limited to the original purchaser but covers the stone regardless of whether ownership of the building changes. This warranty runs with the transfer of the property to subsequent owners of the property into which the warranted products have been incorporated, but the warranty period as to such subsequent owners is limited to 7 years from the original date of the installation of the warranted product. 
3. No warranty whatsoever is made with respect to the manufacture or performance of materials or components of construction not sold or manufactured by Sculptured Stone Inc. including but not limited to mortar, lath, weather-resistant barriers, doors, windows, sealants, flashings, roofing, copings, sheathing, and framing. Further, Sculptured Stone Inc. makes no warranties whatsoever with respect to aesthetics, design, and engineering of the structure into which Sculptured Stone Inc. products are incorporated, or workmanship involved in the application of any Sculptured Stone Inc. products warranted hereunder. Sculptured Stone Inc.'s product is not waterproof. Sculptured Stone Inc. product should not be used on exterior or interior steps or risers. Sculptured Stone Inc. product must be incorporated into a wall assembly designed by a building professional that contains adequate mechanisms for water management. Sculptured Stone Inc. has no responsibility for damage caused by moisture intrusion through the building envelope or around any of the building envelope components or by vapor transmission from the inside of the building to a moisture-sensitive part of the wall assembly. This warranty is effective for sales after December 10, 2013, and supersedes all previously published versions of this warranty. It shall remain effective until Sculptured Stone Inc. publishes a subsequent superseding version, at which time it shall have no further effect. Page 1 of 4 W TM WARRANTY (cont.)
4. This warranty covers only manufacturing defects in Sculptured Stone Inc. manufactured stone or brick veneer. Sculptured Stone Inc.'s manufacturing process has been designed to imitate the random beauty and nature of the real stone. As such, stone surfaces may contain small air holes or surface anomalies. These differences add to the overall character of the stone and are not considered manufacturing defects. Changes in the appearance of Sculptured Stone Inc. 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 colored surface to fade, chalk, or accumulate dirt or stains. 5.

a. improper use, application, or installation of Sculptured Stone Inc.’s products, use of. products as part of improperly designed or constructed assemblies or buildings or with defective adjacent materials or assemblies; c. failure to follow applicable specifications, instructions, and construction details; d. use of any sealing or coating on the stone other than one that is silane or siloxane-based in strict compliance with the sealant manufacturer’s instructions; e. other design or construction defects, deficiencies, and failures on a building where Sculptured Stone Inc. product is used; f. undertaking on-site inspections or any on-site activities or making oral statements at the site; g. any damage or injury whatsoever caused in whole or in part by acts of God, natural phenomenon, or physical abuse such as but not limited to falling objects, projectiles, fire, earthquake, floods, windstorms, hail, tornadoes, lightning, hurricanes, other abnormal weather conditions, pests, chemical fumes, foreign substances in the air, misuse, vandalism, civil disobedience, war, damage caused by remodeling or renovation; h. damage resulting from moisture intrusion, mold, settlement of building, or other building or wall movement; i. discoloration or deterioration due to airborne contaminates; or contact with any chemicals or paint; staining or oxidations; j. any accumulation of water or moisture in wall assemblies; k. negligence or accidents by any party or parties in maintaining the Sculptured Stone Inc. . materials, including but not limited to the use of pressure washer or harsh or acid chemicals of any nature, including vinegar, to clean; l. replacement of stone if Sculptured Stone Inc. product is mixed with other chemicals or materials not approved by Sculptured Stone Inc. in writing; m. any cause beyond Sculptured Stone Inc. control; and n. any workmanship, aesthetics, or other damage or injury not solely and directly caused by a manufacturing defect in Sculptured Stone Inc.. products as covered under this warranty.
