We
are convinced that Country Estate®'s
non-prorated
50-year Warranty is the industry's strongest
warranty.
|
 |
If
you find a major manufacturer's published warranty
on Vinyl fencing that you feel will better protect your
investment than Country Estate's published warranty,
submit your request to us in writing along with a
copy of the competitor's warranty and we will warrant
our product using the competitor's warranty rather
than ours.
