Warranty coverage details
WHAT'S COVERED
- Manufacturing defects in the material.
- Ultraviolet (UV) degradation of the fiber.
- Excessive fading beyond normal, expected color change.
WHAT'S NOT COVERED
- Installation workmanship — seams, base prep, drainage, fastening, wrinkling. That's the installing contractor's responsibility.
- Damage from sunlight reflected or concentrated by low-E glass, mirrors, or polished metal.
Why reflected sunlight isn't covered
Low-E and energy-efficient window glass can concentrate sunlight to temperatures that exceed the melting point of any synthetic fiber — natural or artificial. No manufacturer in the industry warrants against it. Screens, awnings, shades, or window film solve it. If you're speccing a project with a large south- or west-facing glass elevation, talk to your rep before you order.
- Slight variation in thatch texture or dye lot color, and normal color change over the life of the turf.
- Heat damage from grills, fire pits, fireworks, cigarettes, or hot ash.
- Chemicals, solvents, herbicides, pool chemicals, oil, or fuel.
- Vehicles, heavy static loads, sharp objects, or cleats on products not specified for that use.
- Animal damage beyond normal use; pet odor and staining are not material defects.
- Accidents, abuse, neglect, vandalism, fire, flood, or other acts of God.
- Unauthorized repair or alteration of the material or subsurface.
- Failure to maintain per the recommended procedure.
- Seconds, remnants, closeouts, and material sold as-is.

Materials Only
WE SUPPLY THE MATERIAL. WE DON'T INSTALL IT.
Superior Turf Direct sells material only. We don't perform, arrange, subcontract, or supervise installation, and this warranty covers the material only — not workmanship. Installation is warranted, if at all, by your installing contractor.
Installers listed are independent businesses and are not employees, agents, or subcontractors of Superior Turf Direct. We do not perform, supervise, warrant, or guarantee their work, and a listing is not a recommendation or an endorsement. Licensing requirements differ by state. Verify a contractor's license, insurance, and references with the licensing board in the state where the work will be performed before hiring anyone. Any agreement you make with a listed contractor is between you and that contractor, and Superior is not a party to it. Read the full directory notice
