CRAFT-BILT MANUFACTURING CO. UNVEILS
NEW 50 YEAR WARRANTY
Local company stands behind their product with proven quality

Craft-Bilt Mfg. Co., a leading national manufacturer of patio and sunrooms located in Souderton, Pennsylvania announces a Non-Pro Rated 50 Year Transferable Limited Warranty on all Betterliving® Patio and Sunrooms. Betterliving is one of the nation’s fastest growing sunroom companies, and the upgrade to a 50 year warranty is a significant value to homeowners and is evidence to the product’s longstanding quality.

“Our experience in the patio and sunroom industry has grown remarkably but our mission of providing the highest quality and most reliable products remain steadfast. This is shown in the growth of our warranty program, where initially we offered a 5 year manufacturer’s warranty, which moved to 10, then 15 years, and now a 50 year guarantee. We were able to do this because history has shown that our products last the lifetime of your house,” said Andy Stone, President.

Founded in Philadelphia in 1946 by Donald “Bud” Stone, Craft-Bilt began with the manufacturing of Venetian blinds in the basement of an old school. The organization eventually grew and made its name through those colorful aluminum awnings that adorn the street side windows of so many row homes in Philadelphia.

In 1962 Craft-Bilt began the manufacture of Panel Craft® roof panels for carports and patio enclosures, and quickly discovered how strong and reliable their design performed in the field. The next logical step for the organization was to manufacture their own line of patio and sunrooms built on the foundation of quality and customization left by the founder.

Today Betterliving Sunrooms, the company’s biggest product, is sold nationally through dealerships located from Bangor, ME to Boise, ID. “We’ve learned over the years that you can’t just give a company a product and have them stick it up and be successful for 60 years,” Stone said. “I don’t think there is another sunroom company that puts the amount of support into a product that we do.”

An example of this commitment is that an individually numbered certificate is affixed to the packaging of every roof panel. The certificate allows dealers to trace every panel back to the manufacturing process. Every roof panel that leaves the facility meets standards tested by the Applied Testing & Geosciences, LLC Quality Assurance Agency and evaluation reports are readily available to all homeowners.

“It’s always been our mission to invest in our people and products. This type of determination has paid off allowing us to pass on the benefit of years of experience to homeowners with this new 50 Year Manufacturer’s Warranty. We want people who buy from us to long remember the quality and great service that comes with getting a Betterliving Sunroom. I’m thrilled that I can be a part of our customer’s lives long after a purchase is made,” Stone continued. “To us it’s not just about building and making more money, it’s about giving people the opportunity to enjoy a lifestyle they never thought possible before having one of our products.”

Betterliving Patio and Sunrooms are represented in the Delaware Valley by Home Vantage located in Conshohocken, PA and Betterliving Northeastern PA in Allentown.
