Editorial Policy

At Nowtimes, our editorial mission is to provide trustworthy, well-researched, and inspiring home decor and home improvement content for UK readers.

Editorial Independence
Our editorial team operates independently of our commercial and business teams. No commercial relationship, advertising partner, or affiliate agreement influences the topics we choose, the products we recommend, or the conclusions we draw in our editorial content.

Sourcing and Accuracy
We rely on first-hand expertise, on-the-record sources, brand-supplied information where appropriate, and our own product research and testing. When we use external data, we link to or cite the original source wherever possible.

Where information changes — for example, a product is discontinued or a price shifts significantly — we update our content. Significant changes are reflected in the updated date at the top of the article.

Product Reviews
Our reviews are based on a combination of hands-on testing, expert knowledge, and reader feedback. Where a product has been provided to us free of charge for review, we clearly disclose this within the article. Reviews are never paid for or influenced by the brand.

Buying Guides
Our buying guides explain how we choose products, what to look for, and which products or ranges stand out for UK buyers. Where we include affiliate links, we disclose this clearly. Our affiliate relationships do not change our recommendations.

Corrections
We take errors seriously. If you spot something that doesn’t look right, please email corrections@nowtimes.net and our team will review and, where appropriate, correct and update the article.

Diversity and Inclusion
We aim to reflect a wide range of homes, budgets, families, and lifestyles in our content, and to use inclusive, respectful language in everything we publish.

Sponsored and Branded Content
Sponsored content is clearly labelled. We do not allow sponsors to review, approve, or change editorial content, and we never publish sponsored content as though it were independent editorial.
