Hey, contractors

Resilience work can carry stronger margins than standard builds.

Get verified, get found, and build steady work in your own community — for homeowners who want someone they can trust, not another storm chaser.

See how it works

1 in 3 homes will face a fire, flood, or storm, but prepared families recover faster.

The difference is getting ready before it hits. You can be one of them.

These aren't distant disasters. They happened in neighborhoods like yours.

Who is BuildSOS

It started in the water.

In 2016, the Louisiana floods submerged thousands of homes overnight. Most families were uninsured, and government and insurance money was too slow to come. The fraud followed, as it always does. A group of construction and finance professionals founded BuildSOS to fix both: get people home faster, and make contractor integrity something a homeowner can actually verify.
