Your home deserves a contractor you can trust.
TruGrade helps you look beyond promises by bringing contractor licensing, business, insurance, and verification information together before you hire.
A clearer picture of every contractor.
Contractors can make claims. TruGrade checks independent records and verified evidence so you can see what stands behind the sales pitch.
Protect your home.
Protect your decision.
A polished estimate is not proof. TruGrade helps you compare the contractor's claims with independent information that matters.
Check the Business
Review available licensing, incorporation, business-registration, address, and identity information before you invite a contractor into your home.
Confirm Insurance at the Source
Do not rely on a contractor's claim or document alone. Request positive confirmation supported by the insurance carrier or its authorized agent.
Compare the Evidence
See license, business, location, track-record, and customer-experience information together instead of piecing it together across disconnected sources.
Know Who Arrives
Employee validation will help you confirm who is arriving at your property, whether that worker was validated, and when that validation expires.
Search first.
Hire second.
Four straightforward steps to make a better-informed hiring decision.
Search the Contractor
Start with the contractor's business name and state. Add address details when you need to distinguish similar records.
Review Independent Records
Compare available license, incorporation, registration, address, ownership, and TruGrade information.
Verify Insurance
When confirmed information is unavailable, request verification supported by the carrier or its authorized agent—not contractor paperwork alone.
Choose With Confidence
Use the evidence to decide who deserves an interview, a closer look, and ultimately your trust.
One look.
That's all it takes.
A contractor's TruGrade Letter Grade shows how the business performed across six categories that matter. TruGrade uses a letter-grade scale from A+ through F.
Scan before you hire.
Check before work begins.
A physical seal is an invitation to verify the contractor online, where the current status is authoritative.
We encourage you to scan the contractor's TruGrade Verified Seal when they arrive onsite. Seeing current license and TruGrade verification information gives you added confidence that the contractor at your door is the contractor you researched.
Individually Serialized
Each TruGrade Verified Seal has its own serialized identity so it can be checked rather than accepted at face value.
Scannable QR Code
Scan the seal to open the contractor's online verification record and view the information currently available.
Online Status Controls
The online record is authoritative. A physical seal is not valid when its linked verification is disabled or inactive.
