At Home Services Network will follow up with you within four business days after you submit your request, to ensure that you have heard from at least one of the contractors we matched you with.

How do you screen the contractors in the At Home Services Network?

Our company has strong ties to the Bay Area contractor community and has worked with many members of our network for more than 30 years. We know their work through personal experience and reputation. In addition, when a contractor contacts us, the At Home Services Network staff contacts the California Contractors License Board to determine that the contractor’s license is current, that they are bonded and insured.

How do you locate competent, experienced contractors?

At Home Services Network contractors are referred to us by satisfied customers and fellow contractors. Many contractors also apply to join our network directly. We do not accept a contractor until we have carefully checked his/her statements against information on file at the California State License Board and have spoken to customers and contractor peers. We do not accept contractors with known performance problems.

How many referrals will I receive?
At Home Services Network matches you with up to three (3) qualified contractors for your specific project.

How do you match the right contractor to my project?
We screen basic qualifications, including license, bonding, and insurance information. After a contractor passes this minimum screening, we conduct a personal interview. If a contractor has been referred by a customer or peer, we interview these referral sources as well. In addition, we make every attempt to match you with a contractor who is located no further than 25 miles from your home.

What kind of follow up do you do?
After you inform us that you have chosen an At Home Services Network contractor, we follow up within 10 business days. Your At Home Services Network Representative will call you to find out how the project is progressing and will contact you on a weekly basis until the project is done. At that time, we will ask you for your rating and comments so that we can continue to ensure that our matches meet homeowner expectations.
