Understanding the Problem

When things go wrong with a home improvement project

When things go wrong with a home improvement project, as they sometimes do, where do you turn for help? Where do you go for advice?


It’s incredibly frustrating to feel voiceless, especially when a contractor won’t respond, denies responsibility, and seems completely unaccountable.

Our Mission

A Little Planning Can Go A Long Way

As the saying goes, “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” A little planning can go a long way. Our mission has always been to equip consumers with the knowledge they need before hiring a contractor, helping them avoid costly mistakes from the start.

That’s why we’ve developed tools to help homeowners steer clear of contractor nightmares:

Estimate Request Checklists
“Don’t Get Ripped Off” Video Series & eBooks
Job Calculators & Budget Tools
Verified Contractor Directory

But sometimes, people discover TrustPatrick.com when it’s too late, after the planning stage has passed. They’re caught in a conflict with a contractor, unable to find common ground, or worse, completely ignored.

  • We understand that frustration—it’s like shouting into the void.
  • We want to be a voice for the unheard. We’re here to help you be heard.
  • If you’re in a dispute with a home improvement contractor, visit our complaint center and get the support you need.
