<\/span><\/h2>\nWe are always relieved to hear awful stories like this one turn around to have a happy ending. The founder of RenovationFind, Keith Riley, owns a granite company and has worked in the home renovation industry for many years. After hearing story after story over the years about homeowners getting ripped off by shady contractors, he wanted to create a solution to prevent it from happening.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was so tired of seeing good people get ripped off by these bad contractors. It makes the renovation experience so stressful for homeowners. It also gives a bad reputation for the home improvement industry, and trustworthy companies are out there. \u00a0There needed to be a way to help homeowners find the trustworthy companies and help promote the companies that do excellent work,\u201d said Keith Riley, CEO and Founder of RenovationFind.<\/p>\n
The solution was a data-driven system that screens and certifies home renovation companies based on essential criteria. RenovationFind provides a free online directory of these certified companies so homeowners can find trades and contractors they can trust.<\/p>\n
All companies on RenovationFind.com have had legal and financial background checks for business licensing, insurance, and WCB coverage. Customer reviews are monitored, and companies in good standing with the Better Business Bureau receive a higher rating. A third-party organization continually monitors the companies on the directory to ensure they\u2019re maintaining the high standards.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis family tried a few methods to find a trustworthy contractor and were sadly taken advantage of twice. Thankfully, they found a RenovationFind Certified company on the third try. We want to thank Dustin at 4 O.A.K. Construction for contributing to a positive reputation for the home improvement industry, and for taking good care of these homeowners,\u201d said Riley.<\/p>\n
