The home improvement decision library

Figure out what your home actually needs — before anyone tries to sell you something.

Home Project Pilot is not a lead marketplace. Contractors cannot buy placement, cannot buy a higher score, and never receive your details unless you send them yourself.

Live nationwide for Gutters & Gutter Protection — search any US ZIP code. More categories launch as verification completes.

Roofline, fascia and seamless gutters on a well-maintained craftsman home at golden hour
Gutters & gutter protection — our first fully verified category.

What the trust score stands for

A single number you can act on, never a badge we sell

  • Independent by designNo contractor can buy, boost or negotiate a score.
  • Built on verified recordsOnly documented, checkable business information counts.
  • Kept currentScores are refreshed as records and reviews change.

The scoring model itself is proprietary. We publish the facts on every contractor profile so you can check them yourself — we do not publish the weighting behind the number.

What we're building

HomeProjectPilot is getting smarter

We're building new tools to help homeowners make better decisions before spending thousands of dollars on home improvement. Everything above works today — here's what's next.

  • Building now

    More home categories

    Siding, HVAC, windows, plumbing and more are moving through verification. New categories go live only when the data behind them is ready.

  • Coming soon

    Automated contractor verification

    We're building toward tools that automatically re-check contractor licensing, insurance and business records — so profiles stay current without waiting on manual review.

  • Planned

    Home maintenance forecast

    A multi-year view of when your roof, systems and exterior will likely need attention — and what to budget — built from your home profile.

  • Planned

    HomeProjectPilot mobile app

    Your home profile, documents, diagnostics and Pilot advisor in your pocket — handy when a contractor is standing in your driveway.

Help shape what we build next

We're building HomeProjectPilot around the real decisions homeowners face. Early members get first access to new homeowner decision tools as they become available — and can influence what we build next.

Have an idea? Paid members can request and vote on features on the public roadmap.
