DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the order is affirmed insofar as appealed from, with costs.
In 1990 two school buildings within the plaintiff Comsewogue Union Free School District were re-roofed utilizing insulation material manufactured by the defendant W.R. Grace Co. (hereinafter Grace). After the roofs allegedly developed leaks and other problems, the plaintiff commenced this lawsuit in 1997 against Grace, among others.
The Supreme Court correctly concluded that the lack of contractual privity between the plaintiff and Grace precluded any claim for damages based upon strict liability or breach of implied warranty (see, Jaffee Assocs. v. Bilsco Auto Serv., 58 N.Y.2d 993; County of Chenango Indus. Dev. Agency v. Lockwood Greene Engrs., Inc., 114 A.D.2d 728). Furthermore, under the circumstances of this case, the plaintiff cannot recover in tort against Grace (see, Borce Leasing Corp. v. General Motors Corp., 84 N.Y.2d 685; cf., Sommer v. Federal Signal Corp., 79 N.Y.2d 540). The plaintiff's cause of action to recover damages for breach of express warranty based upon representations made in Grace's product literature was time-barred at the time this action was commenced since the representations do not "explicitly extend to future performance" (UCC 2-725; see, Parrino v. Sperling, 232 A.D.2d 618).
