In the home services lead generation space, there’s a massive gap between form submissions and actual appointments.
Industry averages show conversion rates hovering around 8–12% from lead to booked appointments. That means the majority of form submissions never turn into real conversations—or real jobs.
But what if you could double or even triple that rate, while also protecting your business from TCPA liability?
That’s exactly what Home Owner Help Options achieved by integrating Validiform’s lead validation technology into their contractor matching platform. The results speak for themselves: verified consent, higher-quality leads, and appointment conversion rates that consistently exceed 30%.
The Lead Quality Problem
Home Owner Help Options faced a challenge that’s all too familiar in the home services space. They were generating plenty of form submissions from homeowners looking for repairs, renovations, and maintenance services. But when contractors followed up, too many of those leads went nowhere.
Common issues included:
- Homeowners who didn’t remember filling out the form
- Wrong phone numbers or outdated contact information
- People who were “just browsing” with no real intent
- Homeowners who submitted multiple forms and already chose another contractor
- Spam submissions and bot traffic
Each dead-end lead wasted contractor time and slowly eroded trust in the platform. At the same time, legitimate homeowners with real needs were getting lost in the noise, waiting longer than necessary for help.
Enter Video Validation Technology
To solve the problem, Home Owner Help Options integrated Validiform’s video validation technology directly into their lead capture process.
Now, every time a homeowner submits a request for contractor services, Validiform captures a complete video record of the interaction, including:
- The exact form the homeowner filled out and the disclosures presented
- The services selected (roofing, windows, doors, remodeling, and more)
- The contact information provided
- Explicit consent to be contacted by matched contractors
- The timestamp and IP address of the submission
This creates an indisputable record of consent that protects both the platform and its contractor partners from TCPA claims—while also filtering out low-quality and fraudulent submissions.
The Immediate Impact on Lead Quality
The impact was immediate and measurable. After implementing video validation, Home Owner Help Options saw:
2.3x improvement in contractor satisfaction
Consistently better leads meant contractors stayed engaged and prioritized these opportunities.
67% reduction in invalid contact information
When homeowners know their submission is being recorded, they provide accurate details. Bot traffic nearly disappeared.
43% increase in appointment booking rates
Contractors reached homeowners who remembered submitting the request and were ready to talk.
89% decrease in TCPA-related complaints
Video proof of consent eliminated confusion and reduced risk.
How the Technology Works in Practice
Here’s what happens when a homeowner visits Home Owner Help Options looking for contractor services:
Step 1: The homeowner lands on the platform and describes their needs—whether it’s a new roof, window replacement, or a bathroom remodel.
Step 2: As they complete the form, Validiform’s technology activates and records their journey through the submission process.
Step 3: Clear disclosures explain that pre-screened contractors may contact them. The homeowner must actively acknowledge and consent.
Step 4: Upon submission, Validiform generates a secure video replay of the entire interaction.
Step 5: Home Owner Help Options matches the validated lead with qualified contractors based on location, specialty, and availability.
Step 6: Contractors receive not just contact information, but confidence that the homeowner genuinely requested their services and expects their call.
The Contractor Advantage
For contractors working with Home Owner Help Options, the Validiform integration completely changes lead quality expectations.
Instead of guessing, contractors know with certainty that:
- The homeowner actively requested contractor services
- The contact information is accurate
- The homeowner consented to being contacted
- Full documentation exists if questions ever arise
This confidence leads to better conversations. Contractors aren’t defensive or apologetic when they call—they’re speaking with homeowners who are expecting their outreach and ready to discuss next steps.
Building Trust Through Transparency
The Validiform integration isn’t just about protection—it’s about trust.
Homeowners appreciate clear disclosures and knowing exactly what they’re agreeing to. Contractors appreciate leads that are legitimate, compliant, and ready to convert.
The platform benefits from both sides being satisfied:
- Homeowners receive faster service from qualified professionals
- Contractors get higher-quality leads that convert at stronger rates
- Everyone operates within a clear, documented framework that protects all parties
The Competitive Difference
In a crowded contractor matching market, many platforms focus on volume. Home Owner Help Options focuses on quality.
While other platforms promise more leads, Home Owner Help Options delivers better leads—validated, documented, and optimized for conversion.
This approach attracts top-tier contractors who value reliability over raw lead counts. By prioritizing quality over quantity, Home Owner Help Options builds a network of professionals who deliver exceptional service.
