CodeViolations is a specialized lead generation platform designed for contractors in trades like roofing, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and painting. It aggregates public code violation records from city and county databases across 29+ states, delivering fresh leads directly to contractors' dashboards daily. The service scans hundreds of municipal databases to identify properties with open violations—such as damaged roofs, broken plumbing, or peeling paint—and provides addresses, violation types, and dates. This allows contractors to reach out to homeowners who are already aware of their issues and under pressure to fix them due to city mandates.
Key features include a live dashboard with filtering by trade, email notifications for new leads, CSV export capabilities, and coverage of 128+ cities. The platform offers a flat-rate Pro plan at $49/month after a 7-day free trial, providing unlimited leads in up to three selected areas. Unlike traditional lead services like HomeAdvisor, CodeViolations focuses on exclusive, high-intent leads with less competition, as most contractors are unaware of this public data source. It's built for contractors seeking a cost-effective alternative to pay-per-lead models, with an emphasis on urgency and higher conversion rates.
