Home vendors

"Who fixed the furnace last time?" should not be a research project

A relieved homeowner and a friendly plumber wrapping up a quick sink repair.

Good vendors are hard-won household knowledge. The plumber who shows up, the electrician who charged a fair price, the tree guy your neighbor swears by. Then the water heater fails on a Sunday, and that knowledge is somewhere in one person's phone, if it was kept at all, filed under a first name you don't remember.

KeeperCircle keeps your household's vendors where you can find them again, with the context that makes them worth keeping.

Vendors, with memory

Organization-first entries.

Add vendors as businesses, "Emerald Tree Service" rather than "Steve?", with the person, number, and email attached.

Notes that save money.

Private household notes hold what they quoted, what they charged, and what they said to watch next year, turning one visit into permanent knowledge.

History you can check.

Paid households get contact history, so "when did we last service the furnace" has an answer.

The Vendors & Services category, built in.

One tap to the full roster when something breaks.

Both adults, same roster

Whoever's home when the dishwasher floods can call the right plumber without texting the other parent at work for the number, or trying to reach them while on a business trip. Vendor knowledge belongs to the household, and now it actually lives there.

Keep the roster honest

Vendors retire, sell the business, or stop being worth calling. Archive the ones you might use again, retire the ones you won't, and the list stays trustworthy under pressure.

KeeperCircle contacts list rows tagged by category; the Green Thumb Landscaping row is tagged Vendors and Services and Contractor/Vendor alongside the household's other contacts.
