A local directory that doesn't get in the way.
Most directories sell your information to the highest bidder and force you through quote forms before you can even see who you're talking to. Kuldesac does the opposite: one search returns real, verified providers who actually serve your exact address — with their phone, email, and website right there.
Why we built it
Finding a trustworthy plumber, electrician, cleaner, or contractor shouldn't feel like buying a used car. The big directories make money by gatekeeping leads — selling the same request to five companies, who then race to call and text you for the next week. Providers hate it, customers hate it, and nobody ends up with a better experience.
Kuldesac is built on a simpler idea: list real local businesses inside the area they actually cover, verify them, and then get out of the way. Customers see who serves their address and contact them directly. Providers pay one small monthly fee and keep every customer that finds them — no per-lead charges, no auctions, no tax on doing good work.
For customers
Everything is designed around your address — not a zip code, not a city, the actual spot on the map where the work needs to happen.
Providers that actually serve you
Every business draws their own service area on a map. Search your address and you only see pros who genuinely cover it — no more calling around to find out who shows up in your neighborhood.
Verified for quality and trust
Businesses are verified by our team — registration, insurance, and licenses where they apply. Verified badges are only shown for items we've actually checked, so the trust signals you see are real.
No gatekeeping, no spam
You don't have to log in, fill out a quote form, or hand over your phone number just to see who's out there. Phone, email, and website are right on every profile — contact the ones you like, ignore the rest.
Manage providers across every address
Save trusted pros to any of your addresses — home, rental, parents' place, the office. Each location keeps its own list so the right provider is one click away the next time something breaks.
Member-only promotions
Signed-in customers unlock provider-run promotions and deals you won't see anywhere else. Because we don't charge lead fees, providers can actually pass savings on to you instead of baking them into a markup.
Transparent service menus & pricing
Many providers publish their service menus and prices right on their profile, so you can compare options up front. Less phone tag, fewer surprise quotes — just the information you need to make a confident call.
For service providers
One small monthly fee. Unlimited customer contacts. That's the whole model.
Flat monthly pricing — never per-lead
Pick a tier based on the categories you serve. Get unlimited views, calls, emails, and website clicks. We don't sell your leads, share them with competitors, or charge you when a customer reaches out.
Customers contact you directly
No login wall, no middleman. Customers see your real phone, email, and website and reach you the way they prefer. You own the conversation from the very first hello.
Higher-quality, professional customers
Our audience skews verified, polite, and ready to hire. Because anyone can see your contact info up front, the people who actually reach out tend to be serious about the job — not tire-kickers funneled in from a lead form.
Real verification, real trust
Verified registration, insurance, and licensing turn into badges customers can see at a glance. Standing out is about being legitimately good — not gaming an ad auction.
How we think about the platform
- No leads are sold. Ever. Contact info goes straight from the customer to the provider.
- Coverage is honest. Providers define the exact area they serve, so search results match reality.
- Verification is earned. Badges only appear after we've actually checked the underlying documents.
- Pricing is transparent. One flat monthly fee per tier — no ad-auction games. First primary category is included; each additional primary category adds a flat $50/month. Providers covering more than one state pay a small $99/month per additional state (the first state is included).
- The customer is in control. Browse, save, and reach out on your terms — no account required to contact a provider.
