Who runs this site

Verified Floors is operated by Parallel Marketing Inc.

We want you to know every business tie that could affect what you see here, so they are all on this page.

Our ties to crews listed here

Parallel Marketing Inc. provides marketing services to some of the floor coating crews listed on this site. Each of those crews carries a tag on its listing: "Our client."

Those crews follow the same badge rules as everyone else and get no bump in where they appear. Paying us for marketing does not change a crew's badges, group or order.

The rules are on how we verify.

Our ties to providers on the For pros page

Our For pros page links to training and classes, estimating and bidding tools, and materials. We have business relationships with three of them: JobBring, the training and classes provider, and the materials supplier.

Some links on this site, including those, carry a tracking code so we can count how many people follow them. A tracking code tells the provider the visit came from us. It does not tell them who you are.

How this site makes money

Today the site does not charge homeowners or crews anything.

In the future the site may earn money in these ways:

• Sponsor placements by category, for example a materials supplier sponsoring a guide section. Every sponsor placement will be labelled "Sponsored," kept visually separate from the crew groups, and will never change any crew's badges, group or order.
• Business relationships with providers on the For pros page, listed above.

What money will never buy here: a badge, a better group, a higher spot inside a group, the removal of an honest review, or a homeowner's request being sent to a crew the homeowner did not pick.

If any of this changes, we will update this page and the date at the top before the change takes effect.

How homeowner requests work

When you ask for quotes, you pick up to three crews yourself. Your request goes only to the crews you picked. We do not choose crews for you, and we do not send your request to anyone else. See our privacy policy for what we collect and keep.

Who writes the guides

Guides are written and checked by the Verified Floors team. Every number in a guide is shown with its source and the date we read it. When we use a crew's own published prices, we say so, and we treat them as what they are: a business describing what it sells.
