We think you should know exactly how a site like this pays its bills. Here is how HardenScout does, or may, make money.

Affiliate links

Some links to products or services may be affiliate links. If you buy through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Pages with affiliate links will say so near the top.

Quote and call referrals

If you ask for a quote or call a number listed on HardenScout, your request may go to an installer or to a lead partner that connects homeowners with installers. Those companies may pay us for the referral. We'll tell you on the page when a form or phone number works this way, and before you send any information.

What money never buys

  • A higher ranking or a better score.
  • Removal of a fair, accurate criticism.
  • A spot on a comparison page. Installers are included based on our method, whether or not they pay anyone.

Not affiliated

HardenScout is not affiliated with any installer or manufacturer, and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or part of the My Safe Florida Home program or any Florida state agency. Program names are used only to describe them.

Not professional advice

Our guides are general information. They are not legal, tax, insurance, or engineering advice. For decisions about your specific home, talk to a licensed contractor, your insurance agent, or a tax professional.
