Out of the shoot, Hello Source! provides many free services for consumers and construction companies. Our approach is unique in that it has a rating system for each so a consumer can judge a good contractor. Likewise, a contractor can judge a good job based on ratings of those who know or have worked for a particular enterprise. Ratings will be base on many factors to try and provide a fair and balanced view. You can choose to opt out of some of the ratings but not all. Some of the items used for the ratings will be as follows:

• Hello Source! feedback
• Letters of Recommendation
• Bond rating
• Credit report
• Ratngs from other qualified sites
• Forums and chat recommendations
• Jobs completed in a year
• Total sales volume in a year
• Job Category
• Certifications
• Licenses
• Experience

All of our services are focused on providing a medium where people and companies in the construction industry can get the jobs and information they need.
