For the contractor-type services only, it's $29/year. You also have the option of paying monthly, but if you do that there's a $10 activation fee.

If contractor-type is what you are in need of, then ask a real estate agent for a recommendation. Real estate agents keep those types of workers in business, and they almost always do an excellent job to ensure that the referrals keep coming.

Plus, the real estate agent (if you have one who is a friend, or one who has done/will do business with you in the past/future) will give you the honest impression for free.

I feel like you can get opinions on local businesses (including contractors) by word of mouth for free. I wouldn't waste money on the service, unless you're in a brand new area where you don't know anyone.

We bought for our business, just to check to see what people were saying. We've never really used it, though I certainly should. I need a good plaster ASAP, if anyone local knows someone good yet inexpensive!
