Frequently Asked Questions — Texas
Common questions from Texas homeowners.
Do contractors in Texas need to be licensed?
Licensing requirements vary by trade and city within Texas. General contractors, electricians, plumbers, and HVAC technicians typically need state or local licenses. Smart Choice allows contractors to submit their license documentation for verification — look for the "License Verified" badge on profiles.

Use the search bar at the top of this page to enter your ZIP code or city name. You can also browse by service category and filter by location. All searches show local professionals serving your area first.
Is Smart Choice free for homeowners?
Yes. Homeowners can browse profiles, view reviews, and request quotes at no cost. Smart Choice is supported by contractor subscriptions — not by charging homeowners.
What should I look for when hiring a contractor in Texas?
At minimum, verify that the contractor holds a current license for your project type, carries general liability insurance, and has verifiable reviews from homeowners in your area. Our platform displays credential badges where documentation has been submitted and reviewed — but we always recommend verifying credentials independently with your state licensing board.
