Arkansas Lifetime Roof Warranty 

We at Gerard Roofing Technologies believe we manufacture some of, if not the best, Stone Coated Steel Roofing Systems available. Considering our 35+ years of operating history and our leading industry reputation, we believe our Lifetime Limited Warranty is the best warranty available. For these reasons we are proud to offer this Lifetime Limited Warranty, which we hope you will find understandable and straightforward. Should you have any questions or concerns regarding this Warranty or what it means to you as a consumer/property owner, please visit our website at www.gerardusa.com for additional information concerning our products and our company.

Lifetime Limited Warranty Coverage: Gerard Roofing Technologies ("Gerard") warrants that each Gerard Roofing Panel/Product will be free from manufacturing defects in workmanship and materials for the lifetime of the original owner(s) or, if transferred by the owner(s), 50 years from the date of original installation. Gerard Roofing Panels/Products: are weatherproof; will withstand winds of up to 120 miles per hour; steel substrate will not burn; will not be penetrated by hailstones under 2 & 1/2 inches in diameter- rendering the panels non-weatherproof; and the appearance of the surface coating of the panels will not materially deteriorate beyond normal weathering. Gerard will repair or replace, at its option, any panel(s) determined to be defective.

Transferability: This Lifetime Limited Warranty automatically transfers to a subsequent property owner(s). YOU DO NOT HAVE TO NOTIFY US, OR CONTACT US. This is a valuable provision of your warranty and enhances the value of your property; we encourage you to keep this warranty with your permanent records in a safe place.

No Other Warranties: This Lifetime Limited Warranty is the only warranty given by Gerard (no implied or other expressed warranties, oral or written, have been made). (Advisory: Some states do not allow limitations on implied warranties).

This Warranty is Subject to the Following Terms, Conditions and Disclosures (Please Read):

1.       This Warranty shall not apply to: Gerard Roof Panels/Products not installed by a Gerard factory trained installer or contractor ("Gerard Roofer"); damage caused by failure of the Gerard Roofer to follow Gerard installation instructions; damage caused by excessive or abusive traffic or other misuse of the panels either before or after installation; damage caused by the application of non-approved/authorized cleaning fluids or other coatings; or damage from the failure or movement in the structure upon which the roof is installed. Advisory: While we expressly warrant that the Gerard Roof Panels/Products, themselves, will not leak and will withstand 120 MPH winds, whether a roof covered by Gerard Roof Panels/Products is leak proof or can withstand 120 MPH winds, depends upon how the Gerard Panels and other Roofing Products are installed and secured to the roof. All Gerard Roofers provide a separate warranty covering installation of our panels/products. If you experience any problems or have any questions regarding the installation of your Gerard Roof Panels/Products or your installer, please contact us or visit our website to obtain a current list of Gerard Roofers.

2.       CLAIMS PROCEDURE: If a problem with the Gerard Roof Panel(s)/Product(s) appears which the owner believes is covered by this warranty, the owner must send a detailed communication to Gerard either in writing at the address set forth below; or electronically through its website at www.gerardusa.com, together with the Warranty Certificate number. Please include your name, address, and telephone number(s) and a detailed description of the defect or problem and any other information that may be relevant.

3.       Dealers, distributors, and installers are independent contractors and are not authorized to extend or modify the terms of this Lifetime Limited Warranty in any manner.

4.       Gerard shall have no liability for any consequential, incidental, economic, indirect or special damage or loss of any kind, whatsoever. (Advisory: Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages).

5.       No warranty shall apply to any Gerard Roofing Panels/Products that have been modified, altered or changed in design or function after it has left Gerard's facilities. This Lifetime Limited Warranty shall be void if any service or repair contractor who is not a Gerard Roofer or otherwise approved by Gerard, in writing, does any repair work, except temporary emergency repairs. The replacement of any Gerard Roofing Panels/Products by Gerard shall not extend the term of this warranty except as required by law, and/or agreed to by Gerard in writing.

If any provision of this Lifetime Limited Warranty is held by any court of competent of jurisdiction to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
