Everyone knows how hard it is to find an available, reasonably priced and reliable contractor to work on homes.
Porch.com recently introduced a tech tool for consumers, giving them the ability to connect directly through Facebook.
Porch.com has a directory of more than three million professionals and 140 million projects. The platform has integrated its services with Facebook so that consumers can connect with professionals through the Porch platform or through each professional’s Facebook page.
Consumers can request price quotes from the Facebook page of various professionals and then coordinate the project through the Porch site.

Porch also offers a “Guaranteed Professionals” program, free to homeowners, to make consumers feel more confident about the contractors they hire.
The guaranteed professionals have passed a 30-point check system so they are prescreened, have a comprehensive background check and accept the “Porch Pledge” to make every project right for every customer.
