A PRIVATE CONTRACTOR TRUST NETWORK
Built by contractors. Designed to protect homeowners.
How can MCGA help YOU?
Make Contractors Great Again is my personal company—built from necessity, not opportunity.
After decades in construction, I saw homeowners get burned and good contractors pushed aside by a system that rewards ads and speed instead of trust. MCGA exists to change that.
Every contractor here is hand-selected, vetted, and held accountable. This isn’t a search result—it’s a private trust network built on transparency, performance, and local expertise.
Our contractors don’t buy leads.
They don’t cut corners.
They don’t disappear.

▾ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (MCGA) ▾
Is Make Contractors Great Again a real company, and who is behind it?
Yes. Make Contractors Great Again™ (MCGA) is a real, privately owned company founded by Chris Stoneberg, a longtime contractor and construction executive with decades of hands-on experience in the industry.
MCGA was created after seeing too many homeowners harmed by unvetted contractors and too many good contractors buried by pay-to-play lead platforms. This company was built from firsthand experience—not theory—with one goal: to raise the standard of trust and accountability in home improvement.
Do MCGA contractors work for MCGA, or are they independent businesses?
MCGA contractors are independent, locally owned businesses. They do not work for MCGA.
MCGA does not employ contractors, set pricing, or manage jobs. Instead, MCGA serves as a vetting, accountability, and oversight network. Contractors earn the right to be part of MCGA by meeting strict standards and maintaining them over time.
How does MCGA select and vet contractors for each area?
Every contractor goes through a multi-step vetting process before being approved. This includes license and insurance verification, background checks, reference checks, and a review of past performance and reputation.
MCGA also limits the number of contractors per trade in each ZIP code to ensure quality over volume. Vetting does not stop after approval—contractors are monitored continuously.
What happens after I submit a request for a contractor?
Once you submit a request, MCGA reviews your location, project type, and contractor availability in your area.
If a vetted contractor is available, you will be connected directly. If coverage is limited or unavailable, someone from the MCGA Trust Desk will contact you to discuss next steps. You are never automatically routed to random contractors.
What if I prefer to speak with someone instead of filling out a form?
You can always speak with a real person.
MCGA operates a Trust Desk specifically for homeowners who want answers, guidance, or clarification before moving forward. There is no pressure, no sales script, and no obligation—just straightforward information.
Does it cost homeowners anything to use MCGA?
No. Homeowners do not pay MCGA to search for or be connected with contractors.
Contractors participate in MCGA as part of a vetted network, allowing the platform to remain independent and homeowner-focused. MCGA is not a lead-selling service.
How does MCGA protect homeowners if there is a problem with a contractor?
MCGA provides oversight and accountability—not abandonment.
If an issue arises, homeowners can contact the MCGA Trust Desk. Concerns are documented and reviewed, and MCGA works to ensure communication, resolution, and accountability. While MCGA does not replace contracts or warranties, it exists to prevent the “disappearing contractor” problem.
▾ FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FOR CONTRACTORS) ▾
What is Make Contractors Great Again, and who is it for?
Make Contractors Great Again™ (MCGA) is a private contractor trust network created to elevate reputable contractors and protect homeowners.
MCGA is designed for established professionals who operate the right way—licensed, insured, accountable, and reputation-driven. This is not a lead-selling platform and not a volume marketplace.
Do contractors work for MCGA?
No. Contractors in MCGA remain fully independent businesses.
MCGA does not control pricing, scheduling, operations, or customer relationships. MCGA’s role is to vet, monitor, and represent contractors who meet its standards—not to manage their businesses.
How does the contractor vetting process work?
All contractors go through a structured vetting process. This includes license and insurance verification, background screening, reference checks, and a review of work history and professionalism.
Approval is not automatic. MCGA accepts a limited number of contractors per trade and ZIP code.
Is there a limit to how many contractors are accepted in each area?
Yes. MCGA strictly limits the number of contractors per trade in each ZIP code.
This protects contractors from overcrowded competition and protects homeowners from choice overload. MCGA prioritizes quality, consistency, and accountability over volume.
How does MCGA differ from lead services or advertising platforms?
MCGA does not sell leads, auction customers, or rank contractors based on ad spend.
Contractors earn placement through vetting and performance. Homeowners come to MCGA seeking trust, not quotes from strangers. The goal is long-term relationships—not short-term transactions.
What are the expectations once a contractor is accepted?
Contractors are expected to maintain licensing, insurance, professionalism, responsiveness, and ethical conduct.
Acceptance into MCGA is not permanent. Performance, homeowner feedback, and compliance are monitored continuously. Contractors who fail to uphold standards may be reviewed or removed.
How do I apply to become an MCGA contractor?
Contractors may apply through the official MCGA application. Submitting an application does not guarantee acceptance.
If your trade and ZIP code are currently open and your qualifications align with MCGA standards, a member of the MCGA team will contact you with next steps.

Contractors are selected through a structured vetting and approval process, which may include:

Respond professionally and promptly to introductions
