Lifetime Workmanship & Adhesion Warranty

Warranty overview

Paint Professionals Adelaide warrants that coatings applied by our company will remain substantially adhered to the prepared substrate and free from failure caused directly by defective workmanship or application practices, subject to the terms and conditions contained within this warranty. This warranty applies specifically to workmanship and adhesion performance.

Expected coating life by environment

The expected service life of exterior coating systems varies significantly depending on environmental conditions, UV exposure, substrate type and proximity to marine environments. This warranty is scaled relative to the property's exposure conditions.

• Severe marine (0-1 km from coastline): approximately 5-7 years before maintenance recoating may reasonably be expected.
• Coastal (1-5 km from coastline): approximately 7-10 years.
• Metropolitan / inland: approximately 10-15 years depending on substrate condition and ongoing maintenance.

What is covered

This warranty covers peeling, flaking, loss of adhesion or delamination directly attributable to defective preparation or application by Paint Professionals. Approved claims may be rectified by localised repair, recoating of affected areas or other reasonable remedial methods at our sole discretion.

Owner maintenance obligations

Owners must wash coated surfaces periodically (particularly in coastal environments), maintain caulking and sealants, rectify water ingress promptly and avoid abrasive cleaning methods or harsh chemicals. Failure to maintain the property may void this warranty.

Exclusions

This warranty excludes:

• Normal weathering, fading, UV degradation
• Corrosion originating beneath coatings
• Structural movement, moisture ingress, mould, mildew
• Mechanical damage, abrasion, vandalism
• Harsh chemical exposure, acts of God
• Failures caused by inadequate maintenance or pre-existing substrate instability

Materials & incidental costs

Where a valid claim is accepted, reasonable labour and coating materials associated with the approved repair area may be supplied by Paint Professionals. Pool water replacement, landscaping, access equipment, temporary accommodation, consequential losses, electricity, travel costs and non-essential cosmetic improvements are specifically excluded.

Limitation of liability

Liability under this warranty is limited strictly to the original contract value attributable to the affected works only. This warranty operates alongside rights available under Australian Consumer Law.

Sister-brand warranties (Penney Group)

Paint Electro (electrostatic aluminium respraying) carries a matching lifetime workmanship & adhesion warranty on all aluminium window, door and fence respraying.

Blue Revive (pool resurfacing) carries an industry-leading 15-year workmanship & adhesion warranty. Pool resurfacing carries unique pressures (chemical exposure, hydrostatic loading, substrate movement), so the warranty is fixed-term rather than lifetime.
