What it means
Claimed by the business. Linked to the facts.

Straight answers
Badge questions.
What does the verified contractor badge mean?
It means the business has claimed its GRADELINE listing. It is not a guarantee of workmanship, licensing, insurance, or job results.
Does the badge cost anything?
No. Claiming a listing and using the website badge are free.
Does adding the badge change my GRADELINE ranking?
No. The badge is optional and does not change where a business appears in GRADELINE results.
What happens if my listing is no longer verified?
The badge stops being served when the listing is no longer claimed or published, so an old embed cannot keep making a current verification claim.
