Anything Goes!

WARRANTY

This warranty protects you, the original purchaser, if you have purchased an Anything Goes! Classic carpet for your own residential use in an owner-occupied residence.

This warranty is our promise to you that, for 10 years from the date of installation, your Anything Goes! Classic carpet, given regular care and proper maintenance, will not mat or crush from foot traffic as a result of the yarn tufts losing their twist and unraveling.  This warranty includes installation on stairs and in hallways.

Within five years after the date of installation, if your Anything Goes! Classic carpet shows matting and crushing from foot traffic as a result of the yarn tufts losing their twist, and the carpet's appearance cannot be restored, we will replace the Anything Goes! Classic carpet at our expense with new Anything Goes! Classic carpet of the same color and quality.  The replacement applies to the area where the crushing has occurred and the carpet's appearance cannot be restored.  The replacement will include both carpet and labor.

After five years, but within ten years, from the date of installation, if your Anything Goes! Classic carpet shows matting and crushing from foot traffic as a result of the uyarn tufts losing their twist, and the carpet's appearance cannot be rewstored, we will replace the Anything Goes! Classic carpet with new Anything Goes! Classic carpet of the same color and quality.  The replacement applies to the area where the crushing has occurred and the carpet's appearance cannot be restored.  The replacement will be for the carpet only and does not include both labor and pad.

Who is covered

This warranty protects you, the original purchaser, if you have purchased an Anything Goes! Classic carpet for your own residential use in an owner-occupied residence.

What is covered

ShawMark warrants that your Anything Goes! Classic carpet will remain stain resistant to most household food and beverage substances from the date of the original installation in an owner-occupied residence in a proper indoor installation for as long as you own your carpet.  Many Anything Goes! Classic carpets are treated with Shaw's R2x Stain and Soil Resistance for enhanced protection, while STAINMASTER styles are also protected.

Exclusions

This Limited Residential Warranty specifically excludes stains from substances such as bleaches, caustic chemicals, insecticides, paints, shoe polish, lipstick, plant food, iodine, very strong dyes, acids, feces, oil-based substances, and vomit.

Limited pet urine warranty

ShawMark warrants that your Anything Goes! Classic carpet will resist staining caused by pet urine stains.  Stain resistance means the ability of your carpet pile to resist (i.e., minimize or withstand) permanent stains for as long as you own your carpet.

Exclusions

This warranty excludes any urine stain other than pet.  Pet feces and vomit are excluded.  Odor resulting from the covered pet urine stain is excluded.  Wicking may occur requiring the pet urine area to be cleaned more than once.  If above-mentioned stains are saturated and result in wicking, these stains will release with additional re-cleaning.   Wicking is defined as a reappearance of previously cleaned stains due to liquid remaining in carpet backing or padding.

Cleaning of the affected area should begin immediately upon discovery.  the more time that elapses before removal, the more difficult a stain will be to remove.

PLEASE NOT:  NO CARPET IS ABSOLUTELY STAIN PROOF.

While carpet covered under this warranty is protected with stain release agents, some staining may still occur, especially over time and in high traffic areas.  This carpet is warranted to provide additional stain resistant properties to yuour carpet when compared to conventional nylon carpet.  This protection will increase your ability to clean up stains, not prevent strains.  Depending on the type of substance causing the stain, removal may require substantial repeated cleanings, and some stains may not be removable.

ShawMark may, at its sole option, elect to have affected area of the carpet cleaned professionally.

Further exclusions

This Limited Residential Warranty also specifically excludes any carpet which has been treated after installation with any silicone-based anti-soil treatments; any carpet in any nonresidential use; any carpet subjected to abnormal abuse; any crpet exposed to very hot substances or other abusive conditions; damage due to the application of improper cleaning agents; deterioration in appearance not related to staining of pile fibers.  Failure to follow recommended carpet care and cleaning instructions described in the Shwa Industries booklet, "Carpet Care and Maintenance," may result in damage not covered by your warranty.

Treatment of the affected area should begin immediately upon discovery.  The more time that elapses before treatment, the more difficult a stain will be to remove.

The coverage period

This warranty coverage runs from the date your carpet is installed to as long as you own it.

Who is covered

This warranty protects you, the original purchaser, if you have purchased an Anything Goes! Classic carpet made for your own residential use in an owner-occupied residence.

What is covered

ShawMark warrants that Anything Goes! Classic carpets will resist soiling by most common household soil.  If you properly maintain your carpet, soil will clean up more thoroughly, and less residue will remain on your carpet.  This warranty coverage runs from the date your carpet is installed for as long as you own it.

Soil resistance means the ability of your carpet to resist (i.e. minimize or withstand) retention of the common dry dirt normally associated with carpet.

Keep in mind, light-colored carpets will show soiling more than darker colors and will require more frequent maintenance to retain their appearance.
