Only the businesses ticked above receive your details. Nobody else does.

We never sell your details. A business that answers may pay us a small fee; your price is the same.

## How these businesses were checked

The same checks for every business: state license, business registration, permit history and insurance, plus identity, address, phone and website. Re-checked every 90 days. [How each check works](https://thecityverified.com/how-verification-works/)

**We never sell verification outcomes.** A business cannot pay to be verified or to change a result. Paid plans only add things like photos and longer descriptions. [How we make money](https://thecityverified.com/how-we-make-money/).

## Hiring plumbers in West Des Moines: what to check yourself

1. **Ask for the license number and look it up.** The license should be in the company's or owner's name, not a third party who lends it.
2. **Get the insurance certificate sent from the insurer to you.** Ask for liability and, if they have employees, workers' compensation.
3. **Make sure the contractor pulls any permit.** If you are asked to pull it as the owner, treat that as a red flag.
4. **Tie payments to finished stages** rather than paying most of the price up front.
5. **Get the scope, price and warranty in writing** before work starts.
