How it works
Three steps from application to your first lead.
Apply
Tell us about your business: CCB number, Google Business profile, service area, and what you paint. Takes about 5 minutes.
Get vetted
We verify your CCB license is active, check your Google rating and reviews, and confirm your service area is in our coverage zone.
Buy leads on demand
Once approved, log in to the marketplace. Each lead shows price, project details, and a quality score. Pay only for the ones you want.
Vetting requirements
We hold a high bar. Homeowners trust us because of it.
Painters in our network are the kind we would hire ourselves. That trust is what drives homeowner conversion rates well above the industry average, which is what makes each lead worth your time.
Active Oregon CCB license
We verify your CCB number is current with the Oregon Construction Contractors Board before activation.

At least 10 public reviews on Google, averaging 4.0 or higher. Owner-claimed and accurate.

Exclusive
Up to $150
Highest-value, single-buyer leads. The homeowner only hears from you. Pricing scales with job size.

Frequently asked
Common questions.
Is it really pay-per-lead, with no monthly fee?
Yes. There is no subscription. You only pay Stripe at the moment you choose to purchase a lead. If the homeowner ghosts you or the project turns out to be a bad fit, our refund policy covers specific dispute categories.
How do I know a lead is qualified before I pay?
Every lead is scored by our system on signals like project clarity, budget realism, timeline, and home characteristics. You see the score, tier, ZIP, service type, and a project summary before you decide to buy. Homeowner contact details are revealed only after purchase.
What does 'exclusive vs shared' mean?
Exclusive leads are sold to one contractor only. The homeowner hears from you and no one else through our platform. Shared leads can be purchased by up to three contractors. Shared leads are priced lower per buyer.
How long does the application take to review?
Most decisions are made within 1 to 2 business days. If we need anything else from you (for example, a certificate of insurance), we will email you directly.
What if my application is rejected?
You will receive an email explaining exactly why. If the reason is something you can address (a temporary CCB lapse, growing your reviews past our threshold, expanding service area), you are welcome to reapply.
Who runs Stumptown Painters?
A Portland-based team. We are not a national lead aggregator. Our entire focus is connecting Portland-metro homeowners with painters they can trust.
