This warranty applies to the repair or replacement of defective Lucciare surfaces material that has been permanently installed and has remained in its original installed location. The option to repair or replace is at the sole discretion of Ameri.
Ameri makes no express or implied warranty including without limitation, the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or from any other course of dealing or trade usage regarding the product. No warranty is made whatsoever for materials produced or provided by other manufacturers.
Ameri’s sole responsibility and liability under this warranty shall be to repair or to replace at its sole option the products
shown to be defective during the warranty period. Ameri shall have no liability for any loss, expense or damage as a result of the installation of Lucciare material. Under no circumstances shall Ameri be liable for indirect, punitive, consequential, special or any other similar damages, including but not limited to, loss of profits, business interruption or any other loss.
The original owner must provide Ameri with prompt notification of any alleged issue by contacting Lucciare Warranty Services at warranty@lucciare.com. Ameri or its authorized agents must be allowed to inspect the product and to follow our warranty procedures. All decisions regarding the existence of manufacturing defects or affecting this warranty shall
be made by Ameri and shall be final and binding on all parties. No representative, dealer, salesperson, distributor, fabricator or any other person is authorized to make any warranty or promises on behalf of Ameri with respect to its engineered stone products.
In the event of a defect covered under this warranty, Ameri shall have the sole discretion whether to repair or replace
the Lucciare material (not including the cost of installation and/or fabrication). Without derogating from the forgoing, replacement of defective Lucciare material will be subject to inventory constraints. In addition, the replacement materials may not be exactly the same as the defective material.
