HomeAnswer is built around a simple homeowner promise: when you ask to be connected, your request should go to one relevant match, not a pile of companies racing to call you.
A good match depends on service category, geography, availability, project type, urgency, and whether the pro handles that exact kind of job. A roof leak, breaker issue, appliance repair, wildlife entry point, and shower conversion should not be treated as interchangeable leads.
HomeAnswer is an information and referral service. Independent pros are responsible for their own work. Before hiring, ask for the items that matter for your state, city, and project.
Legal business name, local presence, clear contact info, and a written estimate.
License status where required, trade-specific credentials, and permit responsibility.
General liability, workers' compensation when applicable, and who is covered on site.
Materials, labor, cleanup, disposal, exclusions, change orders, and warranty terms.
Availability can vary by service, location, season, and project type. The important homeowner disclosure is the model: HomeAnswer may be compensated when you choose to be connected, and the connection is for your specific request.
