Every contractor we list is screened for insurance, license, and reputation — so homeowners call verified pros first, not the cheapest ad. Houston and about 100 miles around it.
Start with Verified — Verified General Contractor is granted after we confirm you're running genuine multi-trade GC work, and you can always move back down to Verified with one click if your needs change.
Verification, your directory profile, quote requests, and first access to routed leads — includes 2 trades.
Extra trades beyond your plan are +$20/mo each, up to 3 trades total — need more than that? Verified General Contractor has no cap.
Start Your Application →No charge until you're approved and your badge goes live.
For general contractors running multiple trades under one roof — includes 6 trades total (most of what you offer, in one plan), extra trades beyond that are +$20/mo. Granted after we confirm that's genuinely how you operate; you can move back down to Verified anytime.
Start Your Application →Sign up as Verified first — General Contractor tier is granted after we confirm you're genuinely running multi-trade GC work, not a self-service switch.
Want priority placement in the directory and a spot in the homepage's Featured Verified Pros section? Add Trade Featured for $99/mo, anytime, from your dashboard after you're verified — works on either membership. This is priority placement, not exclusivity: other contractors in your trade can add it too, and you're ranked among each other by rating.

Nothing goes live until it passes through our team — same checklist, every time.
Tell us about your business — trade, service area, years in business. Takes about 2 minutes.
Upload your license (if your trade requires one) and your certificate of insurance from your contractor dashboard.
Our team confirms your license (if your trade requires one) and insurance, and checks your Google reviews and Facebook presence — same standard for every applicant. We don't run criminal background checks or formal reference checks.
Your verified badge goes live in the directory and you start getting routed leads first in your trade.
The Houston area's largest trades community, and it's not a free-for-all — every homeowner job post and contractor request is reviewed by our team before it goes through, so what you see is a curated feed, not spam. Your own marketing posts are a different story: as a verified member, they're auto-approved, so you can promote your business as often as you want at no extra cost. We also feature members with custom shoutouts and top-trade recommendations on a regular basis, not just a one-time welcome post.
Facebook Group (62K+) →The verified badge means something because not everyone gets it — license (where required), insurance, and online reputation all checked. In a market crowded with unknowns, it's what shows a homeowner you're the real deal, not just another ad.
The moment you're verified, your profile is live in the searchable directory with an interactive map — findable by trade, city, and distance the second a homeowner searches.
In-person meetups and training with a network of other vetted trades — the same partners in lending, insurance, and tax stand behind every member.
Verified General Contractor includes 6 trades for contractors running multiple trades under one roof — granted once we confirm that's genuinely how you operate, not a self-service upgrade. Extra trades beyond your plan are just $20/mo either way, and you can move back down to Verified anytime with one click.
On top of everything above: new job requests in your trade get routed to verified, active members first, by text the moment they come in — before they're posted anywhere public. It's a real bonus, but it's not why most members stick around — actually marketing yourself inside the community above is where the real opportunity is.
