There are referral services which have come and gone since I have been involved in construction over the past 30+ years. Most of them are in it for the money and they don't have a clue what construction is all about. Since they are run by business people who very likely never set foot on a construction site they have no idea how thing work in our world.
Furthermore I believe they do not care about the homeowners, property managers or the contractors. So I have always advised contractors to not waste time or money with these jolly jokers as they do not add value to anyone but themselves and in fact can do more harm than good!
In 2010 good fortune struck because I discovered Contractor Hotline in Edmonds Washington which I believe is the premier home services referral network.
Cari Barron, the founder of Contractor Hotline has a Biznik Profile and I read all of it. And everything on contractor referral website, joined the mailing list and quickly determined her company is one of the few lead referral sources I am willing to investigate and possibly recommend.
The tipping point for me was her background in construction. Here is an excerpt from her Biznik profile:
“Education: AAS in Carpentry in 1983 at Walla Walla Community College, combined with a lifetime of hands on experience and the school of hard knocks.”
Cari talks the talk and walks the walk! Over the past year I have been privileged to get to know her better and as a result I respect her as a business woman and a professional in her on right.
We have some mutual clients. We provide Construction Bookkeeping and Accounting and they are very pleased with her and her service.
What sets Contractor Hotline apart is:
If you are a reputable contractor looking for some qualified leads you owe it to yourself to contact Cari Barron at:
