91 Automated Checks
Every contractor is scored across 7 categories: Trust & Licensing, Online Presence, Reputation, Pricing & Value, Service Quality, Website Health, and Smart Search. Each check pulls from real data, not self-reported info.
Over a decade in the trade, in nearly every seat. Now I’m on your side of the table.

I started in sales and service at Carini. That is the foundation everything else is built on. Before you manage anything in this business, you learn it at the kitchen table, across from a homeowner trying to decide whether to trust you.
I was good at it. Top sales, then sales manager. I ran the call-by-call at Personal Plumbing, deciding how the whole day moved. I was GM at My Guy Heating and Air, and department manager at Point Loma. I have sat in just about every seat this industry has.
Here is what every one of those seats taught me. Most homeowners have no way to judge value, so they judge the only thing they can see: price. They take the cheapest quote and hope for the best. And the industry has earned its reputation, the high-pressure pitch, the scare tactics, the smoke and mirrors, so people walk in already braced to be sold.
I know that game because I came up in it. And I got tired of watching the homeowner be the one who pays for it.
So I picked a side, and it’s yours. I’m building the thing that should already exist: an honest score from real, public data, so you can see who is actually licensed, actually reviewed, actually good, before price is the only thing left to go on. No ads buying the top spot. No pay to play. No smoke and mirrors. And when you reach out, one contractor hears from you, not ten.
This is me trying to change the industry I came up in. More transparency, less guessing. You should see the truth before you spend a dollar, and choose for yourself who earns the work.
Every contractor is scored across 7 categories: Trust & Licensing, Online Presence, Reputation, Pricing & Value, Service Quality, Website Health, and Smart Search. Each check pulls from real data, not self-reported info.
CSLB license records, Google ratings and reviews, Yelp, the Better Business Bureau, an automated audit of the contractor's website (site quality and structure), and Google PageSpeed (speed and performance). All public data, independently verified.
We analyze every Google review for pricing sentiment, service quality themes, and customer concerns. Not AI-generated summaries. Deterministic keyword analysis across 45+ signals.
Our matching algorithm uses 7 proprietary factors including fatigue rotation, rising star detection, and proximity weighting to connect homeowners with the right contractor, not just the highest-scored one.
Every year, homeowners spend thousands on contractors they found through ads or a friend of a friend. They have no way to verify licensing, check complaint history, or compare pricing. TradeScore changes that. One score, derived from public records, real reviews, and automated analysis. No paid placements. No sponsored results. Just data.
I read every email. Homeowner question, contractor inquiry, or partnership, send it over.
