The Pavement Directory

Contractor listing plans

Featured listing

Everything in Pro, plus the top of the results and a labelled strip on the category pages you compete in.

For a company in a market where more than one contractor is competing for the same page, and being further down it costs work.

What your listing looks like on Featured

These are the real result cards the directory renders, shown here with an example company. Same business, same services, same city — the only difference between them is the plan.

Standard placement, no plan badge, and the contact form on this profile routes to the directory rather than to the company.

Paid listings may include priority placement, not an endorsement.

The amber treatment and plan badge, priority placement in city, state, and category results, and quote requests delivered straight to the company.

What Featured adds over Pro

Every difference between the two plans, and what each one actually means. Nothing here is written by hand — it is read from the same source as the comparison table, so it cannot describe a limit the product no longer has.

  • Directory categories you can carry

    From Up to 6up to Up to 10

    Each category places your listing on that category's landing page, plus the city and state pages beneath it.

  • Cities beyond your home city

    From 3up to 5

    Factual coverage, not keyword reach — add only the cities you genuinely work in. Your home city is always included and never counts against the cap.

  • Total cities your listing appears in

    From 4up to 6

    Home city plus the served cities your plan allows.

  • Of those, how many you are promoted in

    From 1up to 2

    Declaring a city puts you on its page. Being promoted in it puts you at the top, in the labelled sponsored strip. The two numbers are different on purpose — see Placement.

  • Project photos published

    From Up to 25up to Up to 40

    Shown as a gallery on your profile and on any local city pages you have.

  • Cities you are promoted in

    From 1 — your home cityup to 2 — home city plus 1 you choose

    Promoted means two things together: a card in the labelled sponsored strip at the top of that city's page, and first position in its results. Your home city is always one of them and never counts against the total. Everywhere else you serve, you still appear — you just rank on your merits like everyone else.

  • Position in directory results

    From Top of your cityup to Top of 2 cities

    Inside a city you are promoted in, you sort above the standard roster. Outside it, and on state and category pages, rosters sort by tier, then by claimed, reviewed, and alphabetical order.

  • Featured strip on category landing pages

    From Not includedup to Yes

    Up to three listings appear in a labelled strip above the standard roster, on page one only. Page two onward stays purely organic. Sponsored takes the first card.

  • Result card and profile treatment

    From Pro treatmentup to Featured badge

    How prominent your card looks in a list of competitors.

  • Submit completed projects

    From Not includedup to Reviewed before publishing

    One project per submission, from the dashboard. Only the title is required.

  • Client confidentiality

    From Not applicableup to Private by default

    Client names stay private unless you tell us otherwise.

  • Monthly price

    From $49/monthup to $99/month

    Billed monthly, cancel any time before renewal.

  • Annual price

    From $490/yearup to $990/year

    Two months' worth cheaper than paying monthly across a year.

Questions about Featured

How is Featured placement disclosed?

Always, and on the page itself. Paid placement carries a visible label wherever it appears, and the category strip is marked as paid placement rather than presented as a ranking. A directory that hid this would be worth less to the property managers we need reading it, which would make the placement worth less to you.

Does Featured change my review status or badges?

No. Featured adds the Featured Contractor badge, which describes what you are paying for. The badges that say something has been checked — licence, insurance — come from documents we verify, are free on every tier, and cannot be bought at any price.

Upgrade to Featured

$99 per month, or $990/year. Billed through Stripe, and you can cancel any time from your dashboard before the next renewal. Cancelling reverts the listing to Basic — it is never unpublished.

Paid placement: Paid placement affects visibility within The Pavement Directory but does not represent endorsement, certification, verification of workmanship, or guarantee of contractor quality.
