Look up contractors by their service area, not their business address. Filter by their permit history, construction speed, and inspection pass rate.
Our contractor directory is derived from our national building permit database. We use advanced data science to clean and deduplicate contractors across over 100M building permits in the United States.
When you hire a contractor, you don't care about their business address; you care about their service area. We know where contractors work because we use their building permits.
Our contractor data is refreshed and re-processed monthly. We retrieve updates from our building permit database and supplement with state contractor license files.
We calculate inspection pass rate and construction speed wherever it's available, providing an overall score and metrics by permit type.
We know how many jobs each contractor can usually handle and whether they have the capacity to add one more.
You can download to CSV directly from Shovels to analyze or transfer into your other applications.
