Have you ever seen the 20 to 50 year warranties on caulking? They are plastered all over the tubes of caulk and are the marketing practice of major corporations.

Do you know anyone who has collected on a warranty for a tube of caulking? It is a pretty safe bet that you don't.

Ask me about warranties on polished concrete. Including the "20 year" warranties of the densifier manufacturers. Don't be fooled. Most concrete densifier warranties offer little more than to "warrant against dusting" and offer "to provide enough material to treat the affected area." Even at that, sometimes you have to buy their chemical and follow their strick maintenance routine.

Don't be fooled by meaningless warranties. Read the fine print...think it through...regardless the size of the company. Look closely at the warranty to see if has any real value or if it is just marketing hype. Remember the caulking warranty!!!
