How we make money

The numbers on this page don't cost you anything to read. Requesting quotes is a separate step: hit the button and an outside matching partner takes over from there, not us and not any contractor. Only that partner pays us, and only once your request becomes a lead worth pursuing; a contractor's name showing up in a listing never involved a payment to us. What lands in your inbox afterward may carry a different business name than anything printed on this page, since the matching itself is the partner's job, not ours.

This calculator and the cost data behind it cost nothing to use. We're paid only when a matching partner is able to act on your request and turns it into real work, and that payment flows from the partner to us, never from you.

In most cities, a contractor's spot in the compact list below comes from their license record's effective date, not from a fee paid to us. In a city with no contractor file to sort by, that same spot comes from Google's ranking of the business's rating and reviews instead. Nobody buys a place on either version of that list.

The quote button

Pages with listings also carry a quote button. It opens a quote request run by our matching partners, not by the businesses listed on the page. When you ask for quotes through it, a partner may pay us. That is how we pay for running this site.

The partner decides which companies to match you with, so the companies that contact you may not be the ones listed on the page you came from. Before you hire anyone, check their license the same way you would check a listed business.

What it costs you

Using Tub-to-Shower Cost Guide costs homeowners nothing. You don't pay us for listings, lookups or quote requests.

What money doesn't change

• Listings come from state license records or, on top-rated lists, from Google Maps ratings. No business pays to be listed, to be left off, or for its position.
• License listings are sorted alphabetically. Top-rated lists are ranked only by Google rating and review count.
• There are no paid placements today. If we add any, they will be marked Sponsored.
• Verify license links go only to the state's license registry, never to a partner.

How to tell the links apart

Quote buttons always sit in a box with the disclosure above, and they are marked as sponsored links in the page code (rel="sponsored"). Every other outbound link on the site goes to an official license record, a business's Google Maps listing, or a source we cite.
