ContractNearMe
Built to fix what lead-gen sites broke

From problem to fixed —
without the spam or the surprises.

Four simple steps, and a promise the old marketplaces can’t make: your number stays private, every pro is truly verified, and your money is protected until the work is done right.

1

Search verified pros

Enter your trade and ZIP. Browse licensed, insured, background-checked contractors near you — with real credentials, ratings, and response times shown up front.

No account needed to browse
2

You choose who to contact

Found someone you like? Send one message to that one pro. We never broadcast your request to a crowd of contractors — so there’s no flood of calls and texts, ever.

Your number is shared only with the pro you pick
3

Agree & pay by stage

Sign a written scope and price, then pay each stage directly to your pro through secure checkout as the work gets done. Funds go straight to them — ContractNearMe never holds your money — and your deposit is capped by your state’s law.

Pay each stage as work is done
4

Approve & review

Approve each stage as it’s completed. When the job’s done, leave a verified review — something only real, paying customers can do.

Reviews tied to real, paid jobs
The honest comparison
