14.12 New Roong Products Do Not Match Existing

14.8 Roof or Flashing Leaks When properly maintained, the roof and ashing should not leak under normal weather conditions. The Builder, for a period of ve years, will repair roof or ashing leaks that occur during normal weather. Roof vents and louvers are designed to keep out excessive wind-driven rain and snow under normal conditions. Leaks caused by debris or ice accumulation are considered part of routine Homeowner maintenance and are not covered by the Limited Warranty. 14.9 Roong Shingles or Tiles Not Aligned Shingles and tiles are installed to withstand a maximum exposure to the weather as recommended by the manufacturer. Often, tiles and shingles must be adjusted to compensate for diering roof conditions. This is not considered a defect. Tiles within any course should be aligned within 2 inches. The Builder, for a period of one year, will realign tiles and shingles that are not aligned within 2 inches, as well as framing components that vary more than ¼ inch per 4 feet. Minor telegraphing of roof sheathing seams and tissues is normal and will vary with weather conditions. 14.10 Shading or Shadowing Pattern Shading or shadowing on roong materials is caused by the dierences in product color installed in a specic area. The Builder will try to minimize shading deviations by mixing the tiles and shingles during installation, but uniform shading or shadowing is not covered by the LimitedWarranty. 14.11 Roof Tile Color Variations Color fading, color changes, variations of the color hue, or physical deterioration of the color from outside conditions of roof tiles should be expected. Because shade variations are normal and expected from weather, oxidation, or air pollutants, color variations in roof tiles are not covered by the Limited Warranty.

The color and texture of new roong components used to repair existing roong components may not match due to weathering or manufacturing variations. For any repair or replacement of roong components, the Builder will try to match the texture and color of existing roong components as closely as possible, but a perfect color match is not covered by the Limited Warranty. 14.13 Interior Water Damage From Ice Damming In some conditions, snow buildup on roofs due to freeze/thaw cycles can result in ice damming at the gutters. Sometimes this causes water to back up under shingles and to enter the home. In cases where ice damming causes leaks into living areas because of incorrectly installed insulation, the Builder, for a period of ve years, will make appropriate repairs. However, no action is required if the condition is caused by swings of freezing and thawing in the weather. 14.14 Loose or Cracked Tiles or Shingles Loose, cracked, or chipped tiles/shingles exceeding ½ inch will be repaired by the Builder for a period of one year. 14.15 Broken or Defective Roof Tile Unless the result of foot trac, golf balls, hurricanes, tornadoes, or acts of God, the Builder will repair broken or defective roof tiles for a period of one year. HOME TIP To prevent melting ice from entering the home, snow and ice should be removed from overhangs. Heavy snow leads may also increase the risk of ice damming by blocking the ventilation system for the roof. Roofs should be maintained to prevent blockage of the roof ventilation system.
