How the Provider Program Works

Four steps. No complexity. Homeowners find us, call for help, and we connect them to you.

Homeowner finds a local authority site

Trade Services Authority operates over a thousand reference websites covering specific trades and locations — sites like Virginia Contractor Authority, Orlando Pool Authority, or Dallas HVAC Authority. Homeowners find these sites through organic search when they're looking for help with a real project or repair.

They call the service number

Each site lists a service number for the category they need. The customer calls because they have a real problem — a broken AC unit, a pool leak, a plumbing emergency. They're not browsing. They need help now.

The call routes directly to you

Our routing infrastructure connects the call to the participating provider for that service category and location. No hold queues. No call centers. No operators asking screening questions. Your phone rings, and it's a customer who needs your service.

You take it from there

You speak directly with the customer. You assess their situation. You decide whether it's a job you want to take. You set the price, schedule the work, and manage the relationship. Once the call connects, every decision is between you and the customer.

What Trade Services Authority does

  • Operates and maintains the authority site network
  • Drives organic search traffic to each site
  • Manages call routing infrastructure
  • Tracks call qualification and recording
  • Handles billing on qualified calls only
  • Maintains the Contractor Standards program

What Trade Services Authority does not do

  • Perform any services or repairs
  • Manage your jobs or schedule
  • Set your prices or rates
  • Supervise or direct your work
  • Guarantee outcomes to customers
  • Require exclusivity or contracts

The boundary is clear. Trade Services Authority connects customers with service providers. Once contact is made, all decisions — pricing, scheduling, scope, whether to take the job at all — are between you and the customer. We don't get involved in the work, and we don't take a cut of your revenue.
