WARRANTY
The Panda Flooring Company offers a warranty for structural
integrity of 25 years plus a 10 year finish and wear warranty. We
warrant that the surface will not peel within the indicated time period
as long as the bamboo floor is maintained and cared for in a proper manner.
This warranty covers the above from the date of purchase.
Our warranty only applies to bamboo being used in dry residential environments.
Our warranty does not guarantee flooring installed above under-floor heating
systems unless otherwise stated on the invoice. Strict
procedures of quality control at the factory ensures that Panda bamboo
is free of defects. However, as bamboo is a natural product, we cannot
guarantee variations in colour. The
flooring must still be inspected prior to installation, fully acclimatised,
and handled and maintained as per our instructions, which must be requested
by the buyer. Failure to observe the above invalidates the warranty. Damage
caused by improper installation, handling or usage resulting in scratches,
dents, reduction in finish sheen, or damage to surrounding areas is not
covered by this warranty. Any damaged boards must be returned to the Panda
Flooring Company before installation commences- under no circumstances
will we replace boards after they have been installed. Inspection of the
boards must be done at the acclimatisation stage. Our
warranty does not cover damage or defect caused during transportation
or by improper storage or handling after purchase. The
Panda Flooring Company will decline responsibility for any damage caused
to the floor as a result of installation, structural changes in, or non-levelling
of, the sub-floor, exposure to sunlight and weather, extremes of temperature
and humidity, natural ageing effects of the floor (i.e: fading or darkening,
colour variation etc), seperation of boards due to expansion and contraction
caused by the bamboo boards not being acclimatised in the proper manner,
seasonal and temperature changes, or any form of abuse, neglect, damage
by caustic cleaning substances or chemical spillage. The Panda Flooring
Company strongly recommends felt protection pads to be fitted to the legs
of all furniture i.e: tables, chairs etc that will be in contact with
the bamboo flooring. It is the customer's responsibility to acclimatise
the flooring correctly before it is laid.
The
Panda Flooring Company recommends floor layers and floor laying companies
but does not guarantee their workmanship. This is to be arranged between
the customer and the floor laying company.
The
Panda Flooring Company does not guarantee the bamboo outdoor decking once
it has been laid. Any faulty boards will be replaced before they are laid
if they are returned to the Panda Flooring Company for inspection.
The decision to replace or refund remains at the sole discretion of The
Panda Flooring Company. The warranty is not transferable.
