RAW
BLOCKS
back to top
All Raw Blocks are offered for sale on an “as
inspected” basis. Customers are invited to visit our quarry
sites to inspect the blocks they have selected prior to shipment.
Customer inspected Raw Blocks are not subject to claims for defects
visible on the external surfaces. However, NCGC does guarantee
that the interior of the block is consistent with the exterior,
and if upon cutting the block there appears defects in excess
of the exterior, NCGC will replace the unusable material at no
cost to the buyer, FOB the port of destination.
Canadian Caledonia, Virginia Mist, Georgia Grey and other colors
require customer inspection prior to shipment, or if this is waived,
there are no claims for exterior defects. Interior guarantee still
applies.
Customer is responsible to provide photo documentation of the
claimed defects when filing claim for replacement material.
If the customer elects not to inspect the blocks prior to shipment,
then NCGC guarantees that the Raw Blocks meet the following specifications:
Mount Airy White—no cracks and not more than 3% of the surface
to include visual defects such as black or white spots or veining.
Caesar White—no cracks and not more than 6% of the surface
to include visual defects such as black or white spots or veining.
Arizona White—no cracks and not more that 6% of the surface
to include visual defects such as black or white spots.
FABRICATED
PRODUCTS
back to top
All fabricated products are guaranteed to meet
customer drawings or standard industry specifications. If the
project has included a “range approval”, NCGC guarantees
that the supplied products will fall within the approved range.
In the event of a claim, customer must contact NCGC as soon as
possible for resolution. In some cases, NCGC will provide a technician
to address the problem, or authorize a local representative to
address the problem. NCGC may also authorize the return of the
product, which will then be corrected or a replacement provided.
Under no circumstances is a customer authorized to modify said
products, and NCGC will not honor claims for any repair not authorized
in advance.
POLISHED SLABS
back to top
Customers are advised to inspect and select polished
slabs prior to shipment. If the customer waives this inspection,
NCGC guarantees that the slab will be free of cracks and will
be uniformly polished. Since granite is a natural material, there
are natural variations from slab to slab. Therefore, there are
no guarantees or warranties as to appearance.
CRUSHED PRODUCTS
back to top
NCGC guarantees that any crushed product sold by
reference to a state specification will meet said specification
or be replaced. Customer is required to test all material as received
at the job site, and if the material does not meet specifications,
contact NCGC for authorization to return the material. Customer
is responsible to insure that out-of-spec material is not used.
There are no guarantees or warranties for Landscape Products,
White Chips or Gran-I-Grit.
