The thing nobody tells you
On most directories, your phone number is the product.
Lead-broker sites charge contractors per lead, so the form you filled out gets resold to three to five of them — and a "verified" badge is just a graphic the contractor bought. Meanwhile, nobody shows you whether the crew's workers' comp is even active, which is the one lapse that can put the liability on you.
We built the opposite. Homeowners never pay, contractors never bid for your job, and every trust signal links to the actual government record.

How we're different
Built on verification — not lead auctions.
NC Grade and Haul
The verification model
- Routed only to verified contractors — never auctioned
- Sorted by Trust Score, never by ad spend
- Verification = active license at nclbgc.org
- Reviews tied to verified permits
- Every claim deep-links to a government source
What homeowners ask first
The questions you have before you call
How is this different from Angi or HomeAdvisor?
Click any verified license on a contractor card and you land on that contractor's
actual record on the NC Licensing Board's site (nclbgc.org) — not our
screenshot, the real record. Do the same on Angi and you get an internal page that
says "verified" and shows you nothing. That deep-link is the structural difference.
If it's free for homeowners, how do you make money?
Contractors pay $79 a month for a listing. Verification is unpaid for — every contractor passes the four-source cross-check before they list and re-passes weekly. No contractor can pay to skip a check or hide a result.
What does the workers' comp check protect me from?
If a crew without active workers' comp gets hurt on your property, the medical liability can land on you. We surface each contractor's NC Industrial Commission coverage status so you can confirm it's active before anyone sets foot on site.
What happens to my info when I request a quote?
Your project details go to the nearest verified contractors — the ones already cross-checked against public records — so they can respond directly. We don't sell your data to brokers, and contractors never bid for it: they pay a flat $79/month to be listed, never per lead and never to outrank anyone. The directory is funded by those listing fees plus display ads on city pages.
