I posted my job with its particular needs and within hours, I received two qualified candidates. This is after being told by higher ups that no one in the area could accommodate the time frame and jobs. Also very impressed with follow-up! Next time we have work to be done, I'm contacting BuildZoom first!
A lady posted a false review on their website and they do not verify or require any evidence! They will not remove after asking many times and even providing evidence myself of the false claim! Now I have to pay for an attorney to have review removed because it is tied to a Google search with my name! Worthless company if you ask me!
Hello, I was calling to License contractors through county website for my project, but not getting proper responses. I have submitted my information to Build zoom, I received a massage they are working to get a good contractor, after few days 4 Contractor contacted, Inspected and Submitted estimate. Build Zoom is best platform in my experience, They are in touch with us through massages and email till project reach to good hand.
Thank you very much for your support
Joe did a great job commandeering and entire-house-install. He made thoughtful recommendations and was just as available after the product arrived for adjustments and questions. Elite customer service!
Ron and his team were amazing. They are very professional, reliable, and willing to go the extra mile. I had kitchen remodeling work done by his company and it was completely seamless. Great ideas and fun to work with-- also Ron is a true GEM!
I would highly recommend them for any project mid-size to high end. Can't say enough great things
The job was done beautifully. We've gotten oohs and ahs when people come to visit. Kiel is intelligent, inventive and very thorough. Not only did he do a great job tiling and installing hardware, granite and grab bars, he also gifted us a few details that were not in the contract but which he felt should be done. Kiel and his helpers were prompt, cooperative and pleasant at all times.
I hired Cody t noon to put in a concrete patio and a concrete sidewalk the patio needed a retaining wall 4 ft high with stone veneer the job went very well I would highly recommend this contractor to anyone.
We are building our first home were apprehensive when it comes to builders. The customer service provided through BuildZoom is professional, understanding and patient. Lance (our rep) was very patient with us throughout the process. Our contractor has been transparent and honest with us. Highly recommend their services and may use them for any of our future projects.
Marcos (owner Vista Mar Builders) was hands on, him and his crew were professional and courteous. After the project job was done he reached out to make sure me and my wife were happy with the work. I would recommend his company to anyone planning a remodel big or small.
The crew showed up on time and worked at least 10 hours every day with only one meal break. When I told them something was "good enough" They responded "no" our name is on this job, and we take pride in our work, so we want to do it the best we can. And they did! When was last time you heard a contractor say that? Also, they clean up after themselves at the end of every day. We were kind of sad to see them finish up, they were so friendly and concerned about us and their job.
As soon as I said that I was not interested in paying them to 'project manage' my job for a fee... in addition to the money I would pay a general contractor... which I would think should be replaced by this so called project manager, they said they'd pass my info to some local contractors and quickly ended the call. That was about a week ago. Today I got an email saying that there was no one in the area that could help me. Yeah, since I wasn't giving THEM any money. I feel like this is a company who preys on people who don't have experience with contractors.
Hi Becky,
I'm sorry to hear that our team was unable to find any contractors on our platform who are interested in bidding out your project. I can assure you that your hesitation to use our premium service has nothing to do with this. In regards to fees, BuildZoom Premium does indeed have significant benefits for the clients who use it. In many cases the fees you pay are offset through avoiding change orders, ensuring the entire scope of your project is captured in a construction contract, price negotiation, and time saved throughout the pre-construction process as a whole. There are several other benefits as well. These are just some highlights.
If you would like, please email me at customersupport@buildzoom.com and provide me with the email address you used to sign up for your BuildZoom account, as well as your first and last name. I would like to take a look at your account to ensure that everything has been done to assist you.
Thank you for your feedback,
The BuildZom Team
Santos and Blue Diamond Roofing were excellent in providing roof repair for our outbuilding. Responded within minutes to my request for a quote, came within the hour to check it out, and finished the job in the same day. The quote was reasonable, but more importantly, Santos has a high degree of integrity and proved to be trustworthy--he did what he said he would do within the timeframe we discussed. Communicated with us about the progress of the job the entire way. Santos was extremely polite and service-oriented and I highly recommend him and Blue Diamond Roofing.
This company was recommended by one of our friends. And, we have a wonderful experience with this roofing company as well. They are professional and responsive. They provide great service with timely follow up. Their price is reasonable. They also educated us about their procedures and listened to our concerns. They helped us fixed our roof leakage (front porch) in two days. For our future roofing project, we will call on them for sure.
I had an electrical issue after the recent freeze in Austin TX. The city's website pointed me to BuildZoom in order to get bids for the repairs. My assigned consultant was very helpful, and expecially proactive in keeping up to speed on the progress of getting the needed work done. Definitely recommended.
We are building an "In Law" addition to my daughters house which is an hour away. Build Zoom helped me to select an Architect (Matthias is fantastic) for the project and his selection alone saved more than the Buildzoom price. And I loved the 3D modeling used to develop the plans! Since I don't live in the area, I don't have any knowledge of builders or their reputations and this is a real strength of BuildZoom and their database. They have given me great confidence that this will be a very successful project.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear that BuildZoom helped you find a fantastic architect like Matthias and that the 3D modeling was a valuable part of the planning process. It’s great to know that our platform’s database gave you confidence in selecting the right professionals for your "In Law" addition project, especially given the distance. We’re committed to helping you achieve a successful outcome, and if you need any further assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
We had our older heat pump go out on us this summer. We had the company the unit was purchased from come out to inspect our problem, finding out that the whole hvac system would need replaced. We were given a quote for much more then expected. I came across Buildzoom as I was looking for other hvac companys, Buildzoom helped us find a smaller local hvac company who ended up saving us thousands of dollars! On top of that we got better componants installed then were quoted by the first company. Thanks buildzoom!
Ronny from Elk Point Construction is amazing to work with. He stay on top of the projects going on and gave me detailed information about what was going to happen and when. I would highly recommend this company to anyone.
Frank Bachman. Came to the rescue on this past Saturday morning. We had a full speed ceiling fan running continuously due to a pull chain that we snapped off inside the housing.
We called Frank from Blackman Electric and he fixed the problem within 2 hours. He not only fixed the problem but insured that it would not occur again in the near future by installing a remote unit.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us! We're thrilled to hear that Frank Bachman from Blackman Electric was able to come to the rescue and solve your ceiling fan issue promptly. It's great to know that he not only fixed the problem but also took steps to prevent it from happening again by installing a remote unit. We appreciate your feedback and are glad we could assist you. If you need any further help or have future projects, please don't hesitate to reach out.
Had terrific experience working with BuildZoom's project management team on my country home remodel in Hudson River Valley (New York). Their premium service was worth every penny for the piece of mind. Highly recommend for those looking for competent support to execute on any project.

I had T&L Renovations give me an estimate to have a deck built and they were polite and did an amazing job. Great quality of work and on time. I highly recommend this contractor for all your building needs. Look them up they are wonderful and I'm having them back to do more work for me in the future.
As a senior citizen and an retired veteran, I have never been scammed but there's always a first time. I hired BZ to provide qualified builders to bid a small home I'm building. I received one unqualified bid and then, after $2475 was paid, I was ghosted. Many calls and emails latter, nothing. Not sure what to do now, but I'm going to recover that theft.

Hello Douglas,
We're sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction with the BuildZoom Premium Service. After reviewing your records, it appears that you paid both the Down Payment and the first invoice for procuring you atleast 1 architect. First I'd like to address your concerns about the services, then address your claims about being ghosted.
First, regarding the service you received. BuildZoom has the largest database of contractors in the country, and we use that database to source qualified contractors for your project. In your case, we found the 18 closest contractors in your area with experience with your project type and reached out to all of them with the scope of work and details of your job. Of those 18, only 4 initially expressed interest then it dwindled down to only 1 who was willing to provide a bid. Most of the contractors cited their reason for not wanting to do the project were the distance from where they were to your project location. These contractors are not employed by or affiliated with BuiildZoom, so we can't force them to take a job that's too far for them.
Additionally, we bill for services in arrears. Meaning it's for services you've already received, not for services you will be receiving in the future. The invoice you paid was for the time spent developing a scope of work, having conversations with these contractors to review your project, coordinating meetings, and organizing documentation for all of this. All of this information is available in your Premium Portal when you log in. We intentionally document and log all the different steps we take so property owners have transparency about all the work that's being done on your behalf. It saved you your personal time from having to speak with 18 different contractors and dealing with the frustration of rejection and trying to keep everything organized yourself.
Regarding your claims about being ghosted. It appears that you cancelled your services on July 12th 2023. We attempted to call you on that day and left you a voicemail but you never responded. The next time we heard from you was the day before this review was posted, July 18th 2023, you sent us a couple of emails and telling us you'd be posting reviews and submitting complaints after our offices were closed, then you came on here and posted your review. Leading up to your cancellation, we've been in very active communication with you and were letting you know that we're still attempting to find you additional contractors, however you weren't giving us that opportunity and chose to cancel services.
Once again, we are sad to see you dissatisfied with our services, however our teams put forth a lot of effort to get you a contractor willing to drive out to your location, provide a bid, and we even offered to continue to try to get you more contractors. You were never ghosted, we stayed actively engaged with you and before your claim of being ghosted we were the last ones to reach out to you but you never answered our calls or responded to our emails.
We hope the best for you with your project, and if you end up needing more assistance with finding a contractor and reviewing the bids you receive, you can still reach out to us for assistance.
Great construction service provide company. We are highly recommended
Hey Mark! This sounds like a 5 star review to us!
Thank you so much for your kind words and recommendation! We're thrilled to hear that you had a great experience with our construction services. Our team works hard to ensure the highest level of quality and customer satisfaction! If you have any feedback that could increase your star rating, let me know!
We used Build zoom to do some unanticipated fixes to our home, primarily outside. They were very responsive and came in at budget. Their work was very professional and blended in seamlessly with our exterior. Additional work was done to repair decking and other repairs, again without a long wait and seamless coordination of tasks/tradespeople.
Blake, the owner of the company was very clear in how he would meet our expectations in installing a new driveway at our residence. He and his crew were precisely on time, were well skilled in their job, had the proper equipment and work experience, and completed the job by cleaning the entire area. Our new driveway and parking pads are beautiful and give an entirely new look to our curb appeal. 100% satisfied!
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're delighted to hear that Blake and his team met your expectations for the new driveway installation. It’s fantastic to know that their punctuality, skill, equipment, and thorough cleanup contributed to a beautiful result that enhances your curb appeal. Your satisfaction means a lot to us.
This website allows for fake reviews, promotes incorrect information about businesses and doesn't do a very good job at performing their intended purpose. As useless and misleading as the BBB or Yelp.
Hi Robert,
I am sorry that you feel this way about BuildZoom profiles. Your claim of ""not doing a very good job at performing their intended purpose"" is unclear as of what you exactly mean. However, I'd like to try and clarify the claims in your review, beginning with the purpose of BuildZoom.
BuildZoom partners with over 2000 building departments and contractor license boards across the United States to maintain a database of almost 4 million contractors. Similarly, we receive permit data from city or county building departments, which is all public data. We pull this permit data every day to ensure we have the most updated information for all of our contractors.
BuildZoom is a place where property owners can search our database to find a local contractor, and to leave reviews regarding their experience. They can also contact our Project Consultants if they want help finding a local contractor. BuildZoom offers a premium service in which our dedicated Project Managers support property owners through the pre-hire process. This includes sourcing contractors, bid management and revision, and contract administration, amongst other premium offerings. BuildZoom only wins when contractors AND property owners win.
Reviews on BuildZoom profiles act as a way for property owners to understand more about the person they are getting into business with, and in some cases, may deter them from choosing a contractor due to consistent poor reviews. When someone goes to leave a review on BuildZoom, we always require that they provide us with contact information to ensure the validity of the review, otherwise the review will not be approved. We have a review integrity team that validates every single review that is submitted for a contractor to ensure they are not falsified and to ensure they meet our review requirements. Furthermore, if a contractor believes that a review is falsified, they can claim their BuildZoom profile and submit a dispute directly from the platform to have the review integrity team reach out to the person who left the review and conduct a further investigation. Keep in mind that submitting a dispute is 100% free and we would never require payment to submit or dispute a review. We understand the impact a bad review has on a business. As a platform that accepts reviews from the public, we can't act as arbiters or take sides. We have a responsibility to remain objective about an experience that someone is sharing about a business.
I hope this helps to clarify some of your concerns here.
Vander Veer Concrete Contractors went above and beyond my expectations. I had a driveway, sidewalk, and patio installed on
May 23,2023. AMAZING is the word that defines their work ethic and skill level. Thank you to John H., Steve and the crew that worked on the project.
You're the Best!

Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that the job was done beautifully and that you’ve received such positive reactions from your visitors.

If you need any further assistance or have future projects, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
