​
2. Damage resulting from accident, misuse, neglect, casualty, fi re, vandalism, plant growth, impact of foreign objects, salt or de-icing chemicals, excessive exposure to water due to things such as standing water, water backups, improper flashing, leaks, seepage or irrigation systems, failure of or damage to the wall substrate on which the Product was applied caused by movement, distortion, cracking, or settling of such wall or the foundation of the building, surface discoloration due to airborne stains, pollutants, algae, fungi, lichens or cyanobacteria, exposure to harmful chemicals, external heat sources (including, but not limited to, a barbecue grill, fire, or reflection from windows and doors), acts of God, or other such occurrences beyond the control of Ezer Masonry.

​
4. The use of sandblasting, power washing, silicone treatments, or any other form of chemical wash. Products shall not be in breach of this Warranty if they contain or exhibit (i) minor chipping, as defined under ASTM C1364, Section 8.2; or (ii) minor cracks, as defined under ASTM C 90-05, Section 7.2.1, incidental to the usual methods or materials of manufacture or minor chipping resulting from customary methods of handling in shipment and delivery which do not affect the proper placement of the unit or significantly impair the strength or permanence of the construction.
​
Products are not warranted against discoloration caused by air pollution, exposure to harmful chemicals, or “normal weathering” resulting from exposure to the elements. “Normal weathering” is defined as the damaging effects of sunlight and extremes of weather and atmosphere that may cause any colored surface to oxidize, fade, or become soiled or stained over time.
