How Does This Site Make Money?

All of our advice comes from experiences as contractors in the trade of restoring exterior wood. We are not paid by any manufacturer to promote a stain. For example we have been using TWP for 15+ years and know that it works well for most scenarios. When many manufacturers changed their formulas to acrylics in the last 3-10 years it made our job of fixing these poor products very difficult. The reasoning behind the site is to help consumers find traditional and better options to what they can find at their local Big Box store. We also do not like the gimmick products (Deckover, Rescue it, Etc.) and warranties that they claim.
