How the directory works
1
Search by project type & location
Enter your county or ZIP and the type of work — deck, addition, ADU, roof, pool, etc. We match you to contractors with relevant permit history.
2
Review their permit track record
Each listing shows permit types pulled, jurisdictions worked, license number, and verified reviews. No fluff — just permit credentials.
3
Connect directly — no middleman fees
Contact the contractor directly. HousePermits.com does not take a cut of the job. Homeowners browse free; contractors pay for featured placement only.
