“I just pulled the cover out of the box last weekend and it is no different than the original cover that lasted less than a year even though this one cost about $700 more. And on top of that, it had about six or seven holes already in the cover right out of the box. So we shall see how this one turns out but it's not looking good so far. I should have just ordered the standard cover because after all of this, I am definitely going to build a real garage next year. I originally thought that this would last me two or three years but these are only good for one or two seasons here in Nebraska.”
Hello Cory,
We are very sorry to hear about this! All our shelters include a 1-year limited manufacturer's warranty, and if the cover tears within that period, we suggest submitting a claim and having that reviewed and possibly replaced by the corresponding department. Also, there are (3) different grades of material being the 7.5 oz standard fabric, 14.5 oz Heavy-Duty, and 21.5 oz Ultra Duty material. The heavier grade has longer warrantied and life expectancies, which might better suit your needs. If you have any questions or would like to discuss this in more detail, please feel free to call us at 1-800-932-9344.
Thank you!
“Much heavier than the original one that came in box, which only lasted two years. .....was a little disappointed on the short life. I bought two of these garages, so will be replacing the second cover with this heavier replacement in the spring 2024, since it is tearing at the peak also.”
“We have been through several wind storms with the new cover and it is doing well. We did put a solid wood back on our GIAB that has also helped in the high winds we experience. I were happy with our other cover but the heavy duty PVC is a worth while upgrade.”
