Top Contractors in Los Angeles Now Available on Sharperoo.com.

Los Angeles, CA (Vocus/PRWEB) January 05, 2011

Sharperoo.com, a site that contains information on over 1.5 million contractors nationwide, today announced the public launch of its site focused on the greater Los Angeles area. Using the industry's first objective method for ranking contractors, Sharperoo now offers consumers free access to over 40,000 service providers across 25 categories including general contractors, electricians, plumbers and more.

Sharperoo's ranking algorithm combines information from a wide range of public and private databases with proprietary feedback from contractors and their clients to provide consumers with the industry's first truly objective ranking system in the home improvement industry.

"For a long time, the home improvement industry has been marked by inconsistency," said Ryan Petersen, a spokesman for the company. "It is our mission to bring more transparency and accountability to this industry and make life easier for both consumers and service providers."

Los Angeles is the first localized site to be publicly announced by Sharperoo. According to Petersen, "We have seen a variety of early indicators from sources such as Harvard's Joint Center for Housing Studies that would seem to suggest that the remodeling industry is poised for growth in 2011. We are well positioned to be able to help consumers make informed decisions as they begin to start spending on their homes once again."
