Resources and help

VetACrew cross-checks the contractor’s identity, business, license, work classification, bond, available insurance information, permits, and risk history. The exact checks depend on the contractor and jurisdiction, and every report shows which checks were completed.

VetACrew does not guarantee future workmanship or make the hiring decision for you. It verifies critical details, flags discrepancies, and shows what still needs confirmation so you can make a better-informed decision.

The report marks it with its result state, such as unavailable when a search did not finish or unsupported when no public source covers it, explains why, and suggests the next step, such as requesting a document or confirming directly with an insurer, surety, licensing authority, or permit office.

Every status shows the date it was checked. Licenses, bonds, and coverage can change, so time-sensitive items should be rechecked immediately before signing, payment, or the start of work.

Contractors and customers can submit a correction. VetACrew reviews the evidence, preserves the basis for material changes, and shows the latest verification date.

No. Verification can confirm identities, credentials, reported protection, and available history; it cannot predict future workmanship. Homeowners should also compare bids, check references, use a detailed written contract, confirm permits, and verify insurance directly where needed.

VetACrew’s paid report on one contractor. Every line names its source and the date it was checked, and the report opens again free for 3 months. It never scores, grades, or recommends a contractor.

Usually a few minutes. You can close the page while it runs, and it shows up in My reports when it’s ready.

The report still finishes. The section that office covers is marked “unavailable”, with the date we tried and how to check it yourself.

No. A report is a saved copy of what the records said on the date it ran. To see today’s record, run a new report.

VetACrew distinguishes between insurance information found in a filing and coverage independently confirmed with an insurer or agent. The report will state which level of verification was completed. A workers’ compensation filing is not the same as verification of general liability coverage.

A contractor bond and liability insurance protect against different risks. VetACrew reports them separately and does not treat one as proof of the other. Bond requirements are set by each state’s licensing rules, and liability coverage is best confirmed with the insurance carrier or agency.

A license lookup is useful for checking one license source. VetACrew goes further by matching the contractor’s identity and business, checking whether the license appears relevant to the job, reviewing bond and coverage information, and connecting track-record information into one verification result.

From public records kept by state contractor license boards, city and county building departments, and the Secretary of State. We do not use reviews, ratings, or anything the contractor tells us.
