Gentek Class Action May Be an Option for Property Owners with Peeling, Cracking Siding

A Gentek class action lawsuit may be an option for homeowners who experienced problems with the company’s aluminum or steel exterior siding, including peeling, chipping, cracking or a change in paint color. Potentially, these individuals may be able to participate in a Gentek class action lawsuit, which would allow a large number of homeowners the opportunity to collectively file a claim in court seeking compensation for repairs and other damages. To find out if you are eligible for a Gentek class action, visit http://www.classaction.org/gentek-siding.html to receive a no cost evaluation of your claim. 

According to a Gentek class action complaint, the exterior steel and aluminum siding manufactured by Gentek is inherently defective, as it starts to crack, chip or peel within the original warranty period. Allegedly, the warranties for this siding make the company liable for the repair, replacement or, for siding sold in 1995 and thereafter, refinishing of the siding. The Gentek class action complaint claims, however, that when the company receives a claim for peeling paint, it provides the property owner with either a small monetary sum or an offer to repaint the siding, which may not fully resolve the Gentek siding problems. Furthermore, the Gentek class action complaint alleges that the sum offered to property owners is significantly less than what the company is liable for under its warranties. 

Because Gentek allegedly manufactured defective exterior steel and aluminum siding and breached its product warranties, homeowners who experienced Gentek siding problems with this product may have legal recourse. Potentially, these individuals may be able to participate in a Gentek class action to recover compensation for the repair or replacement of their siding.
