1 SmartMatch™

A local professional who fits your project.

A different way to find a professional

You shouldn't have to search through contractors to find the right one.

Finding a contractor can mean searching through companies, comparing services, reading reviews, making calls and trying to figure out who is actually right for your project.

SmartMatch™ changes that.

Instead of giving you a list of contractors to sort through, SmartMatch™ analyzes your project and identifies the professional who best fits what you're looking for.

The intelligence behind the match

Your project is more than a ZIP code.

SmartMatch™ looks beyond proximity. It evaluates the details that actually determine whether a professional is a good fit for your project.

  1. 01

    Your Project

    What you're planning, the scope of the work and what you want accomplished.

  2. 02

    Location

    Whether the professional actually serves your area.

  3. 03

    Professional Fit

    Whether the professional's services, capabilities and experience align with your project.

  4. 04

    Eligibility

    Whether the professional meets SmartMatch™ participation and eligibility requirements.

The professionals behind the match

Every SmartMatch™ starts with a professional who has gone through our application process.

Professionals don't simply appear in the SmartMatch™ network. They go through the SmartMatch™ application and eligibility process before they can be considered for homeowner recommendations.

  3. 03

    Verify

    Required information and participation requirements are evaluated before a professional becomes eligible for SmartMatch™ recommendations.

  4. 04

    Match

    Eligible professionals can then be evaluated by SmartMatch™ when their capabilities align with a homeowner's project.
