HOW IT WORKS

 

Servicetrades.com asks you 5 very important questions about your project to get you the best match for your improvement needs, this is the easiest proper way to insure you get a ServiceMatch instantly.

These ServiceMatch® questions include:

1) project size?
Reason: Some contractors don’t bother with very small jobs while others are not equip to take on large projects, this question allows the contractor to limit the service calls down to only those their willing or able to take.

2) Zip Code? (location)
Reason: Servicetrades.com enables contractors to choose their service coverage area precisely down by zip code, our member contractors are able to include or exclude any zip code within their service area while also choosing the size of job they are willing to take for each zip code.  So for example; nearby zip codes can be set up to allow homeowners with very small &/or very large jobs to get their contact information, while farther away zip codes are set up to allow only large project requests through.

3) Residential or Commercial?

Reason: Some contractors specialize in one industry over the other while many are proficient in both, get a contractor who has opted to serve the type of industry you require. Strictly commercial contractors will not show up in home improvement projects search results, and vice versa.

4) What Trade group?
Reason: Servicetrades.com has set up 37 service group categories, most of our members can only choose to be listed under ONE trade group, this will guarantee you don’t end up with a Jack-of-all-trades “handyman”. All of our members are professionals in their chosen field, when you call on 3 of our contractors to submit a bid on your project you can feel comfortable that the lowest bid is due to a particular contractor’s advantage and not due to a misunderstanding of what it takes to get the job done.

5) Specialties within a specific trade group.
Reason: choosing to call any professional painting contractor will not guarantee you get a contractor who knows how to create a faux finish or to properly apply Venetian plaster, So we set up a list of specialties within each category for you to get specific, this is the final question before getting to see a list of local professional who are willing and able to get your job done right.

Optional Search features: this feature will enable you, the customer, the ability to filter the final results to include only those contractors who belong to the Better Business Bureau® or offer 24hour service, financing and more! This is just one more way we can guarantee you get the right contractor for your project.
