CONTRACTOR CHECK

Check the contractor before you pay.

Enter the business name, city and state — add a license number or website if you have one. TRUVO360 checks public records and gives you a clear trust score in about 30 seconds.

Free for 5 days, 3 searches, no credit card. Nothing is charged and nothing renews automatically.

The problem

  • Unlicensed contractors ask for a big deposit up front and disappear.
  • License, exclusion and violation records are public, but scattered across agencies.
  • A nice truck and a business card don’t tell you whether a license is active.

License lookups cover California today; elsewhere they are shown as not checked. When too few sources return data, you get “not enough data” instead of a rating. Yelp and Google ratings may be shown for reference but never count toward the score. Premium deep scans add address checks and FTC complaint data.

How it works

  1. Create a free account — the 5-day trial starts automatically.
  2. Enter the business name, city and state.
  3. Read the score and each finding, with the source it came from.

Check first.
