Let’s be honest. We live in a world where everyone wants to sue someone else for their own mistakes. Because of that, we have to put this page here. It’s a mix of legal requirements and common sense. If you’re using Home Tool Creatives, you need to understand how we make money and why you shouldn’t blame us if your DIY project goes sideways.
1. Affiliate Disclosure (Yes, we make money)
I get why this is confusing. Most people were taught this wrong—they think every “recommendation” on the internet is just a friendly tip. Sometimes it is, but often, it’s a business.
We participate in affiliate marketing programs. This means that if you click on a link to a tool or a product and buy it, we might get a small commission. It doesn’t cost you an extra cent. We use this money to keep the lights on and buy more soil for Asim’s experiments. We only link to stuff we actually think is worth your time. If a tool is garbage, we’ll tell you it’s garbage, even if we lose a commission because of it. Our honesty isn’t for sale.
2. Safety and Professional Advice
I get why this is confusing. Most people were taught this wrong—they think watching a five-minute video or reading a guide makes them a master carpenter or a professional botanist. It doesn’t.
Haroon Hassan and Asim Shahzad have years of experience, but we aren’t your personal experts. We don’t know your specific house, your local weather, or your skill level.
- DIY is Risky: Tools are sharp. Electricity is dangerous. Concrete is heavy. If you hurt yourself while following a guide on this site, that’s on you.
- Check Local Laws: Before you build a massive deck or a backyard shed, check your local building codes. We don’t know the laws in your specific town.
3. Accuracy of Calculators
We’re proud of our Home Tool Calculators. We spent a lot of time on the math for the Concrete Calculator and the Pool Volume Calculator.
I get why this is confusing. Most people were taught this wrong—they think math is a magic wand. But in the real world, things happen. Your garden bed might be slightly tilted, or your mulch might be fluffier than the standard bag. Our tools, including the Mulch Calculator and Raised Bed Soil Calculator, provide estimates. They are meant to help you plan, not to give you a 100% guaranteed, down-to-the-last-grain measurement. Always buy a little bit extra. It’s better to have a leftover bag of dirt than to run out when you’re tired and sweaty on a Sunday afternoon.
4. No Warranties
We try our best to keep Home Tool Creatives updated and accurate. You can see our latest work on our Publication Page. But we don’t offer any warranties. We don’t guarantee that the site will always be online or that every single piece of advice will work perfectly for your specific backyard. The world changes, and sometimes even the best “hacks” fail.
5. Content Freshness
I get why this is confusing. Most people were taught this wrong—they think once a “fact” is published, it stays a fact forever. In the world of home improvement and gardening, new research and better tools come out all the time. We post updates in our News and Updates section, but we can’t guarantee that every old article is still the “gold standard” of advice.
