Warranty

Roof Replacement

Elite gives our customers a lifetime structural warranty for full roof replacements performed by Elite. Elite’s structural warranty covers all workmanship issues that arise during the ownership of the vehicle that receive the roof replacement by Elite. The structural warranty covers things like staples backing out, decking becoming loose or cracked decking that has not been caused by any external forces. If the customer has an issue with a roof replacement that Elite has performed, the issue must be brought to Elite’s attention within 5 business days of discovery to avoid further damages from occurring. In order for sealant around components and trim to maintain their 90 day warranty, the customer must inspect their seals in the weeks following a roof replacement and alert Elite as soon as any bubbles or gaps are found. As a repair facility it is Elite’s duty to return all customers vehicles to an OEM standard or better (this judgement is left up to Elite on a case by case basis). This warranty is transferable to any new owners of the vehicle that received the roof replacement service. Elite can choose to perform the repair service on site or may require the vehicle to be brought to an Elite location for the repairs to be performed. If the repair requires additional labor that was not in the scope of work for the original labor performed, additional costs may be charged to the customer or the customer’s insurance company as a supplement. Elite reserves the right to request additional payment for labor and parts from a manufacturer, customer or insurance company if Elite deems that this is required for a correct, OEM repair.

(The customer is always responsible for maintenance of the vehicle. Proof of maintenance may be requested from the customer during the warranty coverage analysis. Elite requires all roofs which have been replaced by Elite to be cleaned and conditioned once every 6 month period in order to maintain their lifetime warranty to prevent long term issues. The customer can have this maintenance completed by Elite, a 3rd party shop or the customer can perform the cleaning and preventative maintenance themselves. If the customer is unable to provide proof of maintenance, this warranty will be void. Photos and an invoice will be required as proof of maintenance.)

Exclusions:

Fading, cracking, hazing, chalking, loss of shine or gloss caused by improper care, abrasive polishes, cleaning agents or excessive pressure washing of roof rubber or fiberglass
Components are not subject to elite’s manufacturer warranty. All vents, electrical components, ladders, sealants and rubbers are not covered under Elite’s lifetime warranty.

Accidents, scratches or tears.
Vehicles used for commercial or competitive purposes receive a 5 year structural warranty which allows for the same coverages laid out in this section, with the only difference being the limited term.
Failures resulting from vehicle misuse (I.e. off-road use etc.)
Roof replacements completed on vehicles 10 years old or older – warranty coverage only applies to the scope of work that Elite was able to access during the initial repairs. i.e if a roof is replaced and the sub-decking is not removed, Elite did not have access to the roof trusses beneath the decking and in turn cannot warranty any issues with roof trusses, underlying electrical issues etc.
