Starting with the jobs New Yorkers ask about most.
Here's what NYC and NY State require for common home jobs. We ask pros to share their license and insurance, and you should verify the license yourself at the DCWP or DOB lookup.
Home improvement work over $200 needs a NYC DCWP Home Improvement Contractor license. Plumbers and electricians need DOB licenses. Movers need a NYSDOT number. Exterminators need state pesticide credentials. Look the license up yourself before you hire.
Ask any pro for a current COI (certificate of liability insurance) before work starts. Co-ops and condos will require one.
We match with local businesses, not anonymous one-off listings or individual household workers.
We don't supervise or guarantee anyone's work. Always get a written quote, confirm the license yourself, and never pay the full amount up front.
Free, no obligation. We share your details with one matched pro only.
Yes. Pros pay us a referral fee for introductions, and you pay nothing to us, ever. The pro's price is between you and them.
No. Each request goes to one matched pro. If it doesn't work out, reply to the intro and we'll try one more.
Pros set their own prices. Our fee is a flat amount per introduction, not a percentage of your job.
The business you hire. We ask pros to share their license and insurance, but we don't perform, supervise or guarantee work, so verify the license yourself at the DCWP or DOB lookup. Get a written quote and contract (NYC requires one for home improvement jobs).
