FOR CONTRACTORS

Stop buying leads. Bid on real projects.

Verified trades only. Real homeowners, limited competition on every job, no pay-per-lead roulette.

Bid on projects

How it works

  1. 01

    Post your project

    Category, budget range, timeline, photos. Takes a few minutes. No account fees, no sales calls.

  2. 02

    Get your bids

    Local contractors bid, up to the limit you set (3 to 8). Every one is license-verified. No inbox flood.

  3. 03

    You pick

    Compare price, availability, and each contractor's pitch side by side. You decide. Nobody decides for you.

  4. 04

    Contact is revealed

    Only when you pick a contractor does your phone and email reach them. Nobody else, ever.

This is what taking bids looks like

Real bids, side by side, played by your rules. As few as 3, never more than 8. Nobody sees your number until you pick.

Why we're different

NO LEAD SELLING

We don't sell your project to a dozen contractors. You set a bid limit. When it's reached, bidding stops.

PRIVATE UNTIL YOU PICK

Your name, phone, and email stay hidden. Contractors bid on the work, not your contact info.

LICENSE-VERIFIED

Every contractor is checked against Oregon CCB or Washington L&I before they can bid.
