When you register you get access to the ratings and reviews that have been left by previous customers. There is no way that businesses can pay to be registered so you can be sure the reviews are unbiased and are verified by the website so there is no bad-mouthing competitors or enhancing your own reputation.

Like ebay feedback there is a two way dialog with the company so they can respond to any feedback that is left. They also have a complaint resolution team who will step in to solve any disputes.

They also have a very useful blog which contains lots of articles about diverse things from removing animals to getting tattoo's. This is open to browse so you can get an idea about the site before registering.

We were disappointed they do not offer a refund on the fees but we understood people could access it for one particular project and then quit.

All in all we found this the best features for a very reasonable price. For any major project this type of consumer driven information is invaluable to make sure you don't get scammed.

We were impressed with the speed and ease we could get estimates for our project. This site took all of the legwork out of finding and contacting professionals and is completely free to use with no obligation.

They had a good number of contractors for all states so wherever you are based you will be able to get an approved contractor. We completed the form and got a confirmation message and within about an hour the phone started ringing.

We were a little put off with the way we could not get to find out anything about the contractors until we registered but understand this is just their way of keeping out timewasters and tire-kickers.

As somebody serious about getting reputable contractors you will want to get your details registered so you can then pick from the selection of companies who pitch for your project.

We also liked the library of useful articles about the various trades. We recommend reading these so you have a clear idea of your requirements before registering so you can quickly choose the company you prefer.

Quality Smith - Free Quotes From Local Professionals

This made our third spot as it a newer site so has less contractors signed up than Renovation Expert. The site is simple to use and we got our free quotes quicker than them but it is still a little limited in the sheer number of trades that are represented.

It was easy to use and guarantees their contractors are legitimate by putting them through a rigorous application process. They show customer testimonials on the homepage which puts your mind at ease. They are also keen to promote the 'green' contractors.

There is a ton of great articles and information on the site so you should check them out and maybe get quotes from both this and Renovation Expert to get the best company for the job.
