How we verify pros

Every pro listed here has cleared four checks before going live.

1. 1.

   License verified at source

   We confirm the license number against the Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board (OCILB) or the relevant local authority. The link on each profile takes you straight to the official record.

2. 2.

   Real reviews only

   We pull review aggregates from Google, then human-spot-check for fake-review patterns. If we can't trust the reviews, the pro doesn't make the cut.

3. 3.

   Address + identity check

   We confirm each pro's listed address against public business records and Google Maps imagery. No PO boxes pretending to be shops, no dropshippers, no out-of-state lead resellers posing as local crews.

4. 4.

   Quarterly re-verification

   Licenses lapse. Businesses move. Every pro is re-checked every 90 days. The 'Verified' date on each profile is when we last confirmed.
