Why I built this

Why I built this for general contractors

I ran a painting company for years. I know exactly how the big lead machines treat general contractors — shared leads, bidding wars, and a bill whether the job closes or not.

Shared Leads Are a Race to the Bottom

You pay $150 for a "qualified lead" and find out 8 other GCs got the same name. You're competing on price instead of reputation.

Lead Services Send Tire-Kickers

Your marketing targets $50K+ remodels, but Angi keeps sending people who want a closet shelf. You're a GC, not a handyman.

You Generate Leads for Everyone Else

Every kitchen remodel generates work for plumbers, electricians, HVAC, painters, flooring. You've become a free lead gen for your subs.

Three steps

How LeadChuck works for general contractors

No shared leads, no bidding war. You set your fee, referrals come from contractors who already vetted the job, and you only pay when you accept.

1

Set Your Price

You set one lead fee — that's what you pay for every referral that comes your way. Be competitive, but set a price you're comfortable with.

Step 1 of 3
2

Get Referrals from Your Network

Architects, interior designers, realtors, and inspectors send you qualified clients who are ready to build.

Send Referrals, Get Paid

Every project needs subs. Refer your plumber, electrician, roofer — each referral puts money back in your pocket.

Who sends general contractors work — and who you send work to

Every job touches more than one trade. Here's who already sends work to general contractors, and who general contractors send work to.

Who sends you leads
These trades run into your work constantly.
They design projects but don't build them. High-value leads: additions, custom homes, major renovations.
Design plans need demo, plumbing, electrical. Designers need GCs who won't butcher their vision.
Pre-sale renovations. Post-purchase remodels. Investors flipping properties.
Foundation cracks, water damage, structural issues. Buyer needs a GC to scope repairs.
Unit turns, tenant improvements, maintenance too big for handymen.
Who you refer out to
Pass the work you don't do and earn a referral fee.
Every kitchen/bath remodel needs plumbing.
$60–$100
Panel upgrades, new circuits, lighting plans.
$65–$100
HVAC Technicians
New ductwork, mini-splits, system upgrades.
$60–$100
Finish painting on every project.
$40–$75
Flooring Installers
Tile, hardwood, LVP — most GCs sub this out.
$50–$90
The math

A worked example, not a customer story.

Here's how a season can compound for a general contractor on LeadChuck. The numbers below are an example scenario, not a customer report.

An architect refers you a client planning a full kitchen remodel. You accept for $250. Project scope: $85,000 gut renovation. The project generates referrals: Plumber ($75), Electrician ($85), HVAC Tech ($60), Flooring ($65), Painter ($55), Countertops ($50). Your referral earnings: $390. Your lead cost: $250.
NET RESULT: You earned $140 profit on referrals alone — BEFORE your GC margin on the $85K project.

Straight answers

Questions, answered.

I already have relationships with my subs. Why do I need LeadChuck?

LeadChuck makes those referrals pay you back. Your plumber gets work from you all the time. Now you get $60-100 every time instead of just a "thanks."

Are the leads worth the cost for big-ticket GC work?

You set one lead fee for all referrals. For general contractors, even a higher fee pays for itself quickly on the jobs you close. Plus, referral income from subbing often covers lead costs entirely.

How do I handle leads too small for my operation?

Refer them out. Get a handyman or smaller contractor in your network. The "wrong" leads become income instead of wasted time.

What if my subs aren't on LeadChuck?

Invite them. When your plumber joins and sets their lead fee, every job you refer earns you that fee. Most subs join fast when they see pre-qualified work.

One platform

Leads are just the start.

Everything above, plus the growth tools I wished I'd had — all in the same account:

Email blast

Your general contractors client list is worth staying in touch with. Type a few notes, Chuck drafts a polished email, and you approve it before it ever sends.

Deals email

Feature a deal in other contractors' emails and pay only when a homeowner claims it. Run the same play with your own list, and earn a share when it sends work the other way.

Referral gift cards

Every client gets a permanent link to share, and a gift card says thanks the moment a friend reaches out. Happy general contractors clients are already talking — this gives them an easy way to do it.
