    COMMON QUESTIONS

    What subs ask before signing up.

    Straight answers. If yours isn't here, send it directly on WhatsApp or via the contact form.

    Yes. There's no cost and no card required to appear in the directory. You go live the same day you send your trade, service area, and contact details.

    No. We send professional, direct follow-up to the GC on your behalf. We don't take legal action, and if a GC stays unresponsive we refer you out rather than escalate on our own.

    From public bid boards, state procurement portals, and our own active GC network, filtered down to your trade and service area before they ever reach your inbox.

    License and insurance status is collected and flagged as self-reported at signup. It's not independently certified with the issuing authority, so GCs are advised to do their own final check before award.
