About Us

We've got it down to a science. Having screened our entire network of over 69,000 professionals, here's what we look for:

State-Level Trade License Verification
We make sure that our service professionals carry required state-level trade licensing for the services they provide.

Criminal & Sex Offender Background Check
Service Magic uses third-party data sources to conduct a criminal search for relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.

Insurance Coverage
We encourage professionals to carry insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.

Verification of State Business Filings
For service professionals that are corporations or limited liability companies, we confirm that the business is properly registered in the state in which it is located.

Bankruptcy, Judgments & Liens Records Check
We use third-party data sources to check the principal/owner of each business for bankruptcy filings, liens and significant state-level legal judgments during the three years prior to their enrollment in the Service Magic network.

Identity Verification
We verify the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities. Service Magic does not screen Canadian Service Professionals.
