How are professionals vetted?
Every professional on our platform goes through a thorough verification process. Where licensing is required by their trade, we verify those credentials. We also verify insurance and track quality ratings.
How accurate are the AI estimates?
Our AI uses your actual property data (square footage, lot size, roof type, etc.) combined with local market rates. We always present a range, not a fixed price. The professional confirms the final price.

Your satisfaction matters. If there's an issue, contact us through the chat and we'll work with you and the professional to resolve it. We track quality scores for every professional.
