Ranked on real credentials
We order results by license standing, disciplinary record, years in business, and real city building records - 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 city building records exist, we'll show where a contractor has actually worked.
Where we have coverage
Every result draws on two data layers. License records span each state we cover; city building records are added city by city and are always growing.

- New applications come from the city's current building-records system. Older history from the previous system is kept, and rankings count each job once.
- Tempe's public feed has about 20,000 city building records 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 city building records, 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 job was for.
- Peoria names a contractor on issued city building records, 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 job 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 job 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 jobs appear about a month after month-end.
- Phoenix issued-job 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 job was for.
- Seattle's contractor names come from its electrical and trade job feeds, which cover electrical, mechanical, HVAC, fire-sprinkler, and sign work. Those feeds do not label plumbing jobs, and Seattle's general building records rarely name a contractor, so plumbing and other unlabeled trades are license-only there.
