FOR PROS
Our Mission
Your Contractor Should Live in Your Community.
Not in a Boardroom.
The “Invisible” Problem in Home Services
You’ve probably noticed it. The local plumber you used for years suddenly has new trucks, significantly higher prices, and a call center that puts you on hold for 20 minutes.
That isn’t an accident. It’s a strategy.
In the last five years, billions of dollars of distant investment money has poured into the home services industry. Investment firms from New York and Chicago are quietly buying up our local roofing, HVAC, and plumbing companies.
They often keep the old family name on the truck to gain your trust, but behind the scenes they are cutting quality, raising prices, and answering to shareholders, not neighbors.

Our Philosophy
Local‑First
We prioritize locally owned and locally operated providers, not national call centers.
Transparency
We disclose how companies are featured and avoid pay‑to‑play gimmicks.
Quality Over Quantity
We’d rather recommend fewer great options than overwhelm you with noise.

Who is Behind This?
Built by a local, family‑run team. TwinCitiesBest.com is owned and operated by a Twin Cities–based team with deep roots in the local home services community.
We built this platform because we were tired of seeing good homeowners get tricked by slick marketing from bad companies. We wanted to create a “Safe Harbor” where you can find a pro who actually cares about your home.
