How TrustZe Vets Contractors
TrustZe is a free homeowner referral / matching broker — not the trade contractor. We screen independent local pros before matching, then you hire and pay them directly. We do not sell your job to the highest bidder or list unverified crews.
How matching works
- You describe the job, zip code, and timing on a TrustZe request form.
- We match you with a screened contractor who serves that trade and service area — not a paid directory blast.
- You review scope and pricing with the contractor, then hire them directly. TrustZe does not mark up the job.
Screening criteria before a pro enters the network
-
License verification
We collect license numbers and confirm they match the trade and state the contractor serves. Pros without a verifiable license stay off public pages.
-
Insurance review
Active liability coverage is required. Document expiry is tracked so lapsed policies can pull a company offline until updated.
-
Identity & business checks
We review business identity, service area (state/city), and contact details used for NAP citations on company pages.
-
What gets rejected
Missing or mismatched licenses, lapsed insurance, no real local service area, or inability to provide a written scope keep a contractor out of matching.
-
Reviews from real jobs
Public reviews are limited to homeowners who submitted a request through TrustZe — not anonymous internet comments.
What you can verify
- Company name, phone, and service area on each public company page (when a profile is live)
- License and insurance status badges where the contractor has provided documents
- Direct contact — TrustZe does not insert a lead middleman between you and the pro
- Broker honesty: TrustZe matches and screens; the independent contractor performs the work

Who runs screening (process E-E-A-T)
Contractor screening is owned by the TrustZe screening team — the same group that reviews homeowner guides. We document matching steps, rejection criteria, and broker boundaries on this page so homeowners can see the process before they share a project. TrustZe is a matching broker: we are not the licensed trade contractor on your job.
Editorial rules for guides live on editorial standards. Questions: contact TrustZe.
Verified company profiles (what proof looks like)
When a contractor has a public TrustZe company page, you can review name, phone, projects, and service area before you hire. Example: Remodel Denver on our Denver remodeling hub. TrustZe verifies; you hire the company directly. We do not invent reviews or fake provider profiles. Contractors can apply to get listed.
Where to start (flagship hubs + guides)
Dallas currently has the deepest published hub inventory; Denver is quality-gated. TrustZe serves homeowners across markets we support — hub pages expand when content and screened pros meet our bar.
