SAN DIEGO, July 5, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- RenovationExperts.com, www.renovationexperts.com, a national home improvement network of contractors, announced today that they will start rating and ranking contractors as of September 1, 2006. The Renex Rank System will allow all home improvement contractors nationwide, including both RenovationExperts.com members and non-members, to display important information about their business profile, licensing, financial information and trade preferences. Additionally, contractors who receive home remodeling projects from RenovationExperts.com will be ranked on the level of satisfaction they give all homeowners. This will be a free service for homeowners and contractors.
Unlike many other rating and ranking systems currently in use on the internet, homeowners will not be given the opportunity to solely self-rate contractors. "We believe that the present methods of rating and ranking remodeling contractors are open to tremendous amounts of fraud and misrepresentation and are easily manipulated providing no real value for a homeowner," said RenovationExperts.com President Craig Lucas. "We are pleased to be able to offer an unbiased tool which will enable homeowners to quickly and easily view information about contractors they are considering hiring for their home improvement project."
The system and information will be accessible online at http://www.renovationexperts.com and is free for all homeowners. Contractors may wish to update their profiles and information by visiting http://www.renovationexperts.com/contractorqualityform.asp
