Jake’s List Launches Nationwide with 1 Million Searches and 300,000 Reviews

AKRON, OH, UNITED STATES, September 28, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Jake’s List, a new online platform designed for service businesses, has launched nationwide, marking a significant milestone as the platform approaches 1 million customer searches and 300,000 reviews. This development aims to level the playing field for contractors, plumbers, electricians, HVAC companies, roofers, remodelers, and other residential service providers by providing them with a valuable tool to research customer histories and experiences before accepting jobs.

Until now, small businesses in the service industry have been at the mercy of customer reviews, often committing significant time and resources before a job is ever completed. This includes traveling to properties, preparing estimates, scheduling crews, purchasing materials, and performing work. Jake’s List seeks to address this issue by enabling service businesses to leave anonymous reviews based on their experiences working with residential customers. Other service businesses can then search Jake’s List to find available customer information before deciding whether to quote or accept a job.

The platform is designed to capture both positive and negative customer experiences. A customer who communicates clearly, pays as agreed, and works well with contractors can build a positive history. Conversely, businesses can document problematic experiences through the platform’s structured review system. The goal behind Jake’s List is straightforward: to give service businesses access to information that can help them make better decisions before committing their time, employees, and resources to a job.

Service businesses can now review the customer, providing valuable insights into the experiences other professionals have had with a prospective customer. This information can help them make more informed decisions, potentially saving time and resources. The platform is built for the service-business community and combines customer reviews with property and other available information to help participating businesses research prospective jobs and customers from one place.

Leaving customer reviews on Jake’s List is free, helping the platform build a nationwide network of experiences contributed by the service-business community. As Jake’s List expands nationally, the company plans to continue adding information sources and tools designed specifically around the needs of service businesses.

With 1 million customer searches and 300,000 reviews, Jake’s List is well on its way to becoming an essential tool for service professionals. The platform’s nationwide launch signifies a significant step forward in the industry, providing a valuable resource for those seeking to protect their time, finances, crews, and businesses.
