Frequently asked questions

It's free for you. Contractors quote for free. Only the contractor you pick pays a success fee, shown to them before they submit a quote.

We are starting in Houston and Austin, and we take jobs in other US markets as we build the contractor network. Intake can come from anywhere in the United States. Turnaround and the number of quotes we can collect depend on contractor coverage in that market.

You can ask for 2, 3, or up to 5. We share each request with up to 5 local contractors. This is not a guarantee that every invited contractor will return a quote, or that a contractor will take the job. Already have a contractor you like? We can include them in the comparison, at no fee to them, for that job. That is one contractor per job, and they count toward the 2 to 5 spots.

We send the job out once we have a complete request. Turnaround depends on how quickly contractors quote. We will tell you if a job looks likely to take longer than usual. We do not promise a clock time we cannot control.

No. We never mark up contractor quotes, and you never pay us. The contractor you pick pays us a success fee, which they agree to before quoting. You hire and pay the contractor directly. QuoteHandled is not a party to that contract or payment.

The job, the property zip code, the timeline, the trade, your name, and a way to reach you. The form also lets you tell us how many quotes you want and your preferred contact method. After you submit, we may still ask for remaining details such as access, photos, or a budget range.

Yes, if you find this page and submit a request. We do not cold-call or cold-email homeowners. The same free process applies.

Contractors can request to join on the For contractors page. Contractors quote for free. There is no membership fee. We never mark up your quote. If the client picks you, you pay a referral fee (our success fee), stated in each quote request before you quote. Each job request goes to up to 5 contractors, and quoting doesn't guarantee the job. We send written terms to accept before any lead is delivered. Once a contractor is hired, the client is their customer, and we never charge a fee on later work the client gives them directly. We are not publishing a live public fee schedule on this site.

Yes. Contractors can pause or stop at any time. There is no contract term and no cancellation fee. Invoices already issued for a referral fee remain due.

Contractors who leave an honest review of QuoteHandled on this site, good or bad, get a $25 credit toward a future referral fee, whatever they say, and we show that next to the review. Clients receive a thank-you note, with no monetary incentive. This applies only to reviews on quotehandled.com, not to Google, Trustpilot, or any other site.

Use the request form or the contractor sign-up form and we will follow up. A public QuoteHandled inbox on quotehandled.com is still being set up, so we have not published a separate contact address on this site yet.
