Natural Slate Roofing is quarried from a slate quarry or extracted from a slate mine, depleting natural resources and sometimes in bad working conditions.

Brava Old World Slate is made in the United States using 100% recycled high grade plastic.

Natural Slate Roofing weights more than 3,000 pounds per square. Natural slate requires expensive structural reinforcement in your property's structure to support the added weight.

Brava Old World Slate weights 339 pounds per square.

Natural slate roofing requires maintenance because the color fades and slate breaks or cracks.

Brava Slate doesn't require maintenance and is weather resistant. Brava Slate is unbreakable in regular wear and tear.

This is a limited manufacturer’s warranty, which, subject to the terms and conditions herein described, Brava Roof Tile (herein after “Brava”) extends to all original property owners of Brava roofing shingles (the “Products”) regardless of where the owner purchased the Products.

Limited Warranty

Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth below, Brava warrants to the original owner of the property on which the Products are installed, and to any party to whom such owner transfers ownership as permitted herein, for a period of 50 years after installation, that the Products have been manufactured free from defects that materially affect performance when subjected to normal and proper use.

Transferability

This warranty is transferrable by the original owner only. To be a valid transfer: 1) the original owner and subsequent buyer shall fill out and mail the Warranty Transfer (attached) within thirty (30) days of the transfer of the property on which the Products have been installed; and 2) shall pay a $100.00 transfer fee. The warranty is not transferable a second time.

Remedy

Brava assumes the obligation, in its sole discretion, to either: A) provide replacement products and installation costs to repair the affected portions of the roof, or B) refund the original purchase price of the Products, excluding freight and other related costs. In the event Brava selects Option A, installation costs shall include labor, flashing, metal work, underlayment, shingle disposal, and other related costs, provided however, that Brava’s obligation to pay said installation costs shall not exceed the prevailing local rates, or $350 per one hundred square feet, whichever is lower. Furthermore, Brava reserves the right to approve the selection of any contractor enlisted by the Owner to perform the repair work. Notwithstanding the foregoing, one hundred and twenty (120) months from the date of installation of the Products, Brava’s sole responsibility shall be the issuance of a refund, which amount shall be a percentage of the original purchase price of the Products, which percentage shall be determined by dividing the number of months remaining in the warranty period by 600. Brava’s refund after 120 months from the date of installation specifically excludes installation costs and other related costs. Any claim and/or replacement of Brava products will not extend the warranty period set forth above. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no benefit under this warranty shall accrue to any owner and Brava shall incur no liability under this warranty unless and until the Products have been paid for in full by owner or its predecessor in title.

Insurable Risks

Before any coverage shall apply under this warranty, in the event of damage to Products caused by any insurable risk during the warranty period, the owner must first exhaust all efforts to pursue the cost of replacement or repair of all damaged Products through the owner’s insurance coverage. Any costs incurred by the owner in excess of the insurance contributed by any source of insurance reimbursements (excluding insurance deductibles), will be reimbursed by Brava only to the extent such costs are otherwise permitted pursuant to this warranty.

Customer Responsibilities

To be a valid warranty, the original owner must complete the attached Registration of Limited Warranty within thirty (30) day s of the completion of installation of the Products. For any alleged warranty claims, the warranty claimant must notify Brava in writing within sixty (60) days after discovery of any manufacturing defect or covered damage. The warranty claimant must include proof of purchase (or proof of warranty transfer in accordance with this warranty), and proof of property ownership, along with such notice. Failure to timely notify Brava of any defect or damage shall nullify this warranty.

Fading

Brava’s Products are engineered to the highest available standards to resist color fading, however, the color of materials subjected to elements of the outdoor environment may weather over time.

In the event the change in color exceeds four (4) Hunter units but does not exceed, in Brava’s sole discretion, what is typical for the geographic area or a claim is made more than ten (10) years from the date the Products were installed, this warranty shall not apply. In the event a claim for fading is covered under this warranty, the provisions of the “Remedy” section shall apply.

Replacement Variations

Brava reserves the right to discontinue or modify any of its roofing products, including the color thereof without notice to the owner and shall not be liable to the owner as a result of any such discontinuation or modification. In addition, Brava shall not be liable in the event the replacement roofing product may vary in color in comparison to the original roofing product as a result of normal weathering or variations in color within a single batch or between batches (including between materials manufactured at different times.) If Brava replaces any roofing product under this warranty, it may substitute roofing product designed by Brava to be of comparable quality or price range in the event the original roofing product purchased is no longer available.
