Contractor profile features
You can save time trawling the internet for relevant work experience. With chronologically listed profiles, see for yourself their recently completed projects. And remember, every one is verified by us with a phone call.
Wondering how much vetting has been done on the contractor? Just look out for the Weaver badge. The more verified projects the builder has, the higher they rank - bronze, silver and gold!
You know straight off you are dealing with a real business as our profiles take data directly from Companies House.
Good images can sometimes hide the truth. With our vetting and behavioural stats on each profile we're making sure that there's no gaming quality.
Do you really know much about your friend’s contractor?
Don’t just take one person’s word for it. With a Weaver contractor you can avoid builders that shut their company down after a badly run project. Every one of our contractors goes through a company risk assessment and multiple phone-verified references for similar construction work.

Intelligent vetting
We call up every known project the contractor has worked on
With our verified references, you know that a Weaver builder's project experience is real (avoiding what the BBC investigators discovered at Rated People & MyBuilder). We also show this information on every contractor profile.

Our company risk assessment spots negative signals
We work hard to avoid bad actors on our platform by scanning for numerous red flags. For example, we screen for dissolved companies the Directors have been members of.
We vet both sides – homeowners and contractors
We know that great projects happen when contractors and homeowners trust & respect each other. We promote this by ensuring a great match, and when both sides have been equally verified.
Contractors are continually assessed
We designed our marketplace so that contractors who act their best can obtain the most work. The platform displays metrics that reflects great service and promotes good behaviour.
