Trust & Safety

Trust Is Earned. Here Is How We Earn It.

ProWorxx is a local Tampa Bay directory operated by real people. We are transparent about what we verify, what professionals report themselves, and how we handle reviews — so you can make confident decisions.

Verified vs. self-reported: we always tell you which is which

Every profile on ProWorxx shows a status badge that tells you exactly how much of the information has been reviewed by our team:

Self-reported information

Profiles marked “Listing Only — Information not verified” contain details supplied by the business or gathered from public sources. ProWorxx has not reviewed them. Always confirm identity, license and insurance before hiring.

ProWorxx-verified information

Badges such as Qualified Vendor, Preferred Vendor and Network Qualified mean our team reviewed specific identity, license and insurance records and tracks required compliance documents. Each badge explains what was checked.

We never apply a vague, universal “verified” label — and we never sell verification. See How We Verify Professionals for the full process and every badge definition.

Practical safety tips when hiring any professional

Ask for the professional’s license number and confirm it with the State of Florida (myfloridalicense.com) when the trade requires one.
Request a certificate of insurance directly from the insurer for larger projects.
Get significant quotes in writing, and be cautious of large up-front deposits.
Read recent reviews — including how the professional responds to criticism.
For real estate services, confirm active licensure and brokerage affiliation.
