We check contractors against state licensing boards (currently South Carolina LLR), insurance certificates, BBB ratings, court records, and permit history. Contractors are listed as "Verified" once their license and insurance are confirmed active. "Deep Verified" requires manual COI confirmation.
Yes. Contractors never pay BuilderCheck. No lead fees, no paid placement, no premium tiers. Earned 5-star reviews and verified credentials are what move you up — not your wallet.
The 30-day Verification Pass lets homeowners contact any verified contractor on BuilderCheck. One-time payment, no subscription, no auto-renewal.
Sign up at buildercheck.io as a contractor. Search for your business; if it's already in our directory, claim it. If not, create your profile. Submit your license and insurance documents and we'll verify within 24 hours.
In the app, go to Settings → Delete Account. Type "DELETE" to confirm. Your account is removed and your reviews and inquiries are anonymized within 24 hours. You can also email info@oakangel.com.
Stories are reviewed manually before publication. We redact contractor names by default unless the case is documented in public record. Reviews typically take 1–3 business days.
Email info@oakangel.com with the contractor name and your concern. We'll re-verify within 24 hours and remove if confirmed.
