Seventeen contractor lead generation companies were checked for this record. Five publish a figure on a page that reads. Five serve pages that read perfectly well with no price on them. Seven refused the read, returned an empty body or answered a bot challenge. Those three groups mean three different things and most comparisons in this category merge the last two.
The five that publish
Two price fresh leads by trade and tier, running from $100 for an HVAC repair enquiry to $225 and above for an exclusive siding lead, with shared versions at roughly half. Two publish aged ladders priced by record age and order size, from $3.00 down to $0.25. One publishes its charging model rather than a rate, stating that there are no subscription fees and that the pro sets their own lead prices.
The five that publish nothing readable
A cost-per-lead calculator with no prices in it until you type your own numbers. A pro page with no dollar figure anywhere. A home page with no price and a pricing path that answers 404. A site with a 356-character body. These read fine and carry no price, which is a deliberate decision about how a company sells and tells you the price is a conversation.
The seven that could not be read
Three answered 403 to an unauthenticated fetch, one returned an empty body, one answered a bot challenge with a 45-character body, and two answered 404 at the address their own sites link from. That says nothing about their prices. Recording it as secretiveness would turn a fact about our fetch into a claim about their business, which is the error this record exists to avoid.
Questions people ask about contractor lead generation companies
How many contractor lead generation companies publish prices?
Five of seventeen checked. Two price fresh leads by trade, two publish aged ladders, and one publishes its charging model instead of a rate.
Does publishing nothing mean a company is expensive?
It means the price is a conversation. Five of the twelve non-publishing sources serve readable pages with no figure, which is a choice; the other seven simply could not be read.
What do the published prices actually cover?
Fresh exclusive leads from $100 for an HVAC repair enquiry to $225 and above for siding, shared versions at roughly half, and aged records at $0.15 to $10.
How often are these checked?
Every quote carries the date it was read and the ingest re-fetches and re-matches each one when it runs, so a repriced page fails rather than shipping a stale figure.
