About GRADELINE

Find local crews by job and place.

GRADELINE helps property owners and builders find excavation contractors by location and type of work. Each contractor page shows the facts people need before they call.

GRADELINE covers Arizona and Florida today and adds more states as listing data gets reviewed. Listings are free to claim, and claimed businesses keep their facts up to date.

Methodology

How the data is built.

Listings come from public business records and public web pages. People review the pages, and businesses can claim theirs to keep the facts current.

We say exactly what the data can and cannot show. If you use a GRADELINE number, name GRADELINE as the source and note the date.

Where listings come from

We build listings from public business records and public web pages. We add each business we find, then review the facts on the page.

What businesses can change

A business can claim its page for free, fix the facts, and add photos. Claimed pages show a verified mark.

What the data can show

The data can show how many businesses are listed, where they are, and what services they offer. It is a directory, not a market study.

What the data cannot show

Listing counts are not the total number of contractors in an area. We do not rank crews or rate their work. A listing is not a license or an insurance promise.

Corrections

  • A listed business can claim its page and fix its own facts at any time.
  • Anyone can send a correction through our contact page.
  • We remove or fix a listing when the facts are wrong or a business asks us to.
