133,864 active licenses from Arizona (ROC) and Washington (L&I)

Find a contractor who is actually qualified.

Describe your job in plain language. We rank licensed contractors on public-record signals - license class, standing, and how much recent permitted work they have done for this trade - so real work rises to the top, not the biggest marketing budgets.

Ranked on real credentials

We order results by license standing, disciplinary record, years in business, and real building-permit history - the objective facts, not who ranks highest on Google.

Anti-SEO by design

Reviews and ad spend are the signals we look past. Qualified contractors who don't market heavily still surface here.

Honest about the data

Every result shows the evidence behind its rank. Where permit history exists, we'll show where a contractor has actually pulled permits.

Where we have coverage

Every result draws on two data layers. License records span each state we cover; building-permit history is added city by city and is always growing.

  • Tempe's public feed has about 20,000 permits since 2019, but only about 1,200 name a contractor, and nearly all of those are right-of-way or utility work rather than building trades. Tempe results are effectively license-only.
  • Mesa's feed names a contractor on most of its 112,000 permits, but it labels them only as residential, commercial, or service - it never records the trade. We can show that a Mesa contractor is active and how much work they pull, but not which trade a permit was for.
  • Peoria's Accela layer names a contractor on issued permits, but it labels them only as residential, commercial, or miscellaneous - it never records the trade. We can show that a Peoria contractor is active and how much work they pull, but not which trade a permit was for.
  • Pinal County is loaded from monthly Excel reports (about a month of lag). Most rows are typed only as standard building work; solar and pool-spa labels exist but most trades cannot be resolved from the permit type.
  • Avondale's monthly Excel reports carry a contractor license number but no contractor name and no trade label. We join on the ROC number. New permits appear about a month after month-end.
  • Phoenix issued-permit search names a contractor on PERS rows back to 2018. Types are city codes (BLD, RE, RPV, and similar), not trade names, so we can show who is pulling work in Phoenix but not which trade a permit was for.
  • Seattle's contractor names come from its electrical and trade permit feeds, which cover electrical, mechanical, HVAC, fire-sprinkler, and sign work. Those feeds do not label plumbing permits, and Seattle's general building permits rarely name a contractor, so plumbing and other unlabeled trades are license-only there.
