Important part from the warranty:

• Almost all flooring will vary in colour over time when exposed to UV light. Avoid this by using curtains or sunscreens when the sun is very bright.
• Avoid rubber or latex backed mats as they may leave stains. Also rubber and latex castors (we advice castors type ‘W’ in accordance with EN 12529) or protection caps under furniture cannot be used.
• Protect against scratching from furniture feet by using wide free-moving castors, glides, rollers or felt pads. Use furniture caps under heavy items or appliances to prevent indentation.
• In case of loose lay installation, damage of the vinyl flooring caused by heavy overload or sliding activities is not covered by the warranty conditions.
• Do not allow cigarettes, matches and other very hot items to contact the floor as this causes permanent damage.
  Important: Cleaning or maintenance may only take place if the Design Floors are correctly installed and there are no visible imperfections.

20 Year Residential Warranty

That the LVT floor has been professionally installed by a qualified installer.

The Warranty is the only guarantee given to the user by the company and does not warrant the LVT flooring supplied to be fit for a particular purpose or use.
It is the responsibility of the user or user’s agents to ensure that the LVT floor is suitable for purpose.
Sample swatches distributed prior to selection and installation of the floor may be from varying batches. Pattern and shading may vary to the final material used in the installation.
