PER CURIAM:

     Larry Ward appeals from an order granting summary judgment

in favor of Travco Insurance Company and declaring that he is

not entitled to coverage under his homeowners insurance policy

for alleged drywall-related damages to his home.          The district

court    found   that   four   provisions   of   the   policy   excluded

coverage.     Previously, we certified the following question of

Virginia law to the Supreme Court of Virginia:

          For purposes of interpreting an “all risk”
     homeowners insurance policy, is any damage resulting
     from this drywall unambiguously excluded from coverage
     under the policy because it is loss caused by:
          (a)   “mechanical    breakdown,   latent   defect,
     inherent vice, or any quality in property that causes
     it to damage itself”;
          (b) “faulty, inadequate, or defective materials”;
          (c) “rust or other corrosion”; or
          (d) “pollutants,” where pollutant is defined as
     “any solid, liquid, gaseous or thermal irritant or
     contaminant, including smoke, vapor, soot, fumes,
     acids, alkalis, chemicals and waste?”

Travco Ins. Co. v. Ward, 468 Fed. Appx. 195, 195-96 (4th Cir.

2012).

     The Supreme Court of Virginia has now answered all subparts

of the certified question in the affirmative.          Travco Ins. Co.

v. Ward, --- S.E.2d --- (Va. Nov. 1, 2012) (2012 WL 5358705).

The parties agree, and we find, that the court’s answers warrant

affirmance of the judgment.     Accordingly, we affirm.

                                                                AFFIRMED
