# How we make money

Homeowners never pay. Companies may pay in four ways, and none of them changes a list.

Last updated October 29, 2026

## Four ways companies pay

- **Per qualified request.** When a homeowner chooses to send a request to the company, with real contact details.
- **Monthly lead packages.** A set number of requests per month at a lower price each.
- **Exclusive requests.** When you choose to send to one company only, that request costs it more. We never hide other companies to create one.
- **Profile upgrades.** More photos and project pages.

## What money can't buy

A higher place in a list, a better record check result, a request you didn't send, or hiding other companies from you. Sponsored placements are labelled and shown outside the ranking.

## Invalid requests

Companies get a credit for wrong numbers, duplicates within 30 days and jobs they don't do, reported within 7 days.

## Questions about money

### Why is it free for homeowners?

Companies pay for qualified requests, lead packages and profile upgrades. That covers the site, so you never pay to request or compare quotes.

### Does a company that pays get more of my requests?

No. Your request goes only to the companies you tick. Paying never adds a company to your request or ticks it for you.

### Is a sponsored company part of the list?

No. Sponsored placements sit outside the list with a Sponsored label and never change the order.
