Renovation and construction projects on BuildBids
Trust & safety
Built for confidence on both sides
Verified contractors
Contractors complete BuildBids verification requirements — business, insurance, identity and trade credentials where applicable — before they can bid.
Private & secure
Your contact details and exact address stay private while contractors are bidding, and are released only to the contractor you select.
You're in control
There is no obligation to hire. You decide which contractor — if any — gets your project.
Local matching
Contractors only see opportunities that match their trades and service areas, so bids come from pros who work in your city.
BuildBids does not score, rate or rank contractors, and verification can never be purchased. Verification is not a guarantee of workmanship, performance or project completion.
Launch markets
Local construction projects in BC & Ontario
BuildBids is launching across British Columbia and Ontario, connecting homeowners with qualified local contractors in communities across both provinces.
