    We installed over $300k in techo-bloc travertina raw pavers. When we called the customer support team to ask if its acceptable to power wash this outdoor product as it needs to be maintained and cleaned with a Powerwasher with an attachment for pavers they stated that would be fine. I asked repeatedly if this would damage the pavers and the customer service agent stated no we have clients power wash all the times. Once the pavers dried which takes hours to fully dry we were completely shocked to see the top coat of the pavers were completely damaged. We contacted Techo-bloc immediately and **** the sales representative came out and provided zero resolution. He stated although the customer service representative from tech-bloc stated it would be fine to clean the pavers in this manner after asking repeatedly it still voided the manufacturers warranty. This company has given zero resolution on how to help this situation and we are now stuck with pavers that we paid a premium for that look absolutely horrible! These are outdoor pavers that they state can be power washed but now are telling me it has now voided the warranty and are providing us absolutely no resolution or help with. Im completely appalled by the company and their lack of response or resolution. How can a representative tell a customer that it would be fine to do something and then when the product is damaged claim the warranty is void!

    *******************,

    As discussed in March, we understand your frustration and are truly sorry you feel we have given zero resolution regarding your claim.Client Support is our priority at Techo-Bloc and our team goes over and above to ensure customers are well educated and have the right resources to maintain their investment.  In our Care Guide, it clearly states that improper use of a power washer can void your warranty, it also gives instructions on how to properly use one. Here is the link: ************************************************************************. Unfortunately, what you are experiencing is not a manufacture defect, it simply means the use of a pressure washer altered the surface of the product.  With that said, is unfair to blame Techo-Bloc and/or its employees for what occurred and cannot be held responsible. We are available for any other questions you may have and hope you can see that we certainly understand and are sympathetic to the situation you are in.
