Category-Specific Warranty Details
HDPE Components: Covered against structural failure for the applicable period. Minor fading, expansion, contraction, and surface marking due to normal outdoor exposure are not defects.
Polypropylene Components: Polypropylene components are warrantied against manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship. Damage from wear, fading, chemical exposure, misuse, or improper care is excluded. Minor texture or color changes are natural characteristics, not defects.
Hardware: Covered against structural failure but may rust in coastal or high-salinity environments if not maintained. Surface rust or corrosion is not covered.
Metal Frames: Covered against structural failure. Corrosion, rust, finish fading, and surface damage are excluded.
Cushions & Fabrics: Covered for defects in workmanship and materials for the applicable term. Mildew, fading, stains, or wear from improper care are excluded.
Firepit Inserts: Covered for the applicable term. A glass wind guard is required; operating without one voids warranty.
Motion Mechanisms/Hardware (swivel, gliding, swinging): Covered against structural failure for the applicable period. Noise, lubrication needs, and minor movement variability are not defects.
Umbrellas & Umbrella Bases: Covered for defects in workmanship and materials for the applicable term. Surface rust or corrosion is not covered.

- Freight damage or improper installation.

Limitation of Liability
Seahawk Designs is not liable for incidental, special, or consequential damages. Liability shall not exceed repair, replacement, or refund. Some states do not allow limitations, so these exclusions may not apply. Coverage applies only in the United States.
Authorized online channels may offer their own warranty, which supersedes the Seahawk Designs warranty. Products covered under a channel-specific warranty are not eligible for manufacturer warranty coverage.
Service & Claim Process
To obtain warranty service, the Purchaser must contact the authorized retailer from whom the product was purchased. Direct contact with Seahawk Designs is not a valid claim procedure.
Required documentation includes:
- Written description of the defect
- Proof of purchase (receipt or invoice)
- Model and serial number (if applicable)
- Photographs of the defect
Upon review, the Company will determine the appropriate remedy.
Returns require a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA). Products not returned using a Company-issued call tag become the Purchaser’s responsibility and may incur charges. Failure to return items within 30 days may forfeit warranty benefits.
