About CertainTeed Class Actions in Hawaii

Hawaii residents affected by defective CertainTeed roofing products may be eligible for compensation through various class action settlements. The state's Unfair and Deceptive Acts and Practices law (UDAP) under Hawaii Revised Statutes Chapter 480 provides additional consumer protections beyond federal regulations, allowing residents to pursue damages for construction defects and false advertising. CertainTeed maintains distribution partnerships throughout the Hawaiian Islands, supplying roofing materials to contractors serving Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and the Big Island through major building supply retailers like Home Depot and specialized roofing distributors. The company's Horizon shingles were widely installed on Hawaiian homes during the 2000s and 2010s. Hawaii residents filing class action claims must be aware of the state's six-year statute of limitations for breach of contract claims and the two-year limit for personal injury claims. The state's geographic isolation can complicate evidence gathering and expert inspections required for construction defect cases. Additionally, Hawaii's unique climate conditions - including salt air, intense UV exposure, and hurricane-force winds - may accelerate roofing material deterioration, making it crucial to document whether failures resulted from manufacturing defects versus environmental factors.

Are Hawaii homeowners eligible for the CertainTeed Horizon shingles settlement?

Yes, Hawaii residents who purchased homes with CertainTeed Horizon shingles installed between specified dates are eligible to file claims. The settlement covers manufacturing defects including premature cracking, granule loss, and discoloration that occurred within the warranty period.

How does Hawaii's tropical climate affect CertainTeed defect claims?

Hawaii's intense UV radiation and salt air can accelerate normal shingle aging, but this doesn't disqualify legitimate defect claims. Claimants must demonstrate that damage resulted from manufacturing defects rather than normal weathering expected in Hawaii's climate.

What documentation do Hawaii residents need for CertainTeed settlement claims?

Hawaii claimants should gather proof of purchase, installation invoices, photographs of defects, and any contractor inspection reports. Due to the islands' distance from mainland experts, local roofing contractor assessments may carry additional weight in claim evaluations.

Tips for Hawaii Residents Filing CertainTeed Claims

Hawaii residents filing CertainTeed claims should photograph all visible shingle defects before making repairs, as the state's year-round weather can quickly worsen damage. Contact local roofing contractors familiar with CertainTeed products for professional assessments, since mainland experts rarely travel to the islands. Keep detailed records of all communications with CertainTeed customer service and any warranty claims. File claims promptly, as Hawaii's statute of limitations may be shorter than mainland states. Consider consulting with Hawaii-licensed attorneys experienced in construction defect cases, as they understand local building codes and climate-related factors that may strengthen your claim.
