The warranty fine print, in plain words

This is what Superior's warranty documents say that most people never read. It decides whether a claim gets paid.

  • Warranty is VOID if not registered within 30 days of purchase (superiorflooring.ca/warranty-registration).
  • Unusual: product MUST NOT be stored on the construction site or acclimatized before install - doing so voids warranty.
  • Claim area must be noticeable from standing and cover at least 15% of the floor area.
  • Excludes scratches, dents, water, fire, improper in-floor heating, substandard subfloor, sun discolouration, spiked heels, pets, insects; checking/cracking from poor moisture control.
  • Not valid over an existing floor, over exposed-earth crawl space, or improperly over radiant heat.
  • Only defects above 5% (excluding 3-5% cutting waste); remedy pro-rated by defective portion.

What we'd check before buying Superior

  • Ask for the wear layer in millimetres and the finish type (aluminum oxide, UV oil or hardwax oil). Why it matters.
  • Check the humidity range in the warranty against your home in winter. A $15 hygrometer tells you.
  • Finish warranties cover wear-through, not scratches. Warranties decoded.
  • Keep the receipt and a photo of the lot number on the box end. You'll need both for any claim or matching repair.
