We do the work.
No middlemen.

The difference is who does the work.

Most home services platforms — Angi, Thumbtack, HomeAdvisor — are marketplaces. They collect your job request and sell it to independent contractors who bid for the work. Those companies don't employ plumbers or electricians. They connect you to ones who do, and charge for the connection.

Novum is the opposite. We are the contractor. A customer requests a job → Novum schedules one of its own licensed employees → our crew does the work → we guarantee it. One company owns the job from quote to completion.

We employ our own crews

Every Novum technician is a direct employee — not a gig worker, freelancer, or marketplace match. We hire, train, and manage our crews to consistent standards.

Upfront flat pricing

You receive a flat quote before work begins. You approve it. That's what you pay. No hourly billing, no scope creep, no surprise charges at the end.

Novum Guarantee

All work is backed by the Novum Guarantee. If something isn't right after the job, we return and fix it at no additional charge — no debate, no runaround.

Licensed and insured

Our plumbers, electricians, HVAC techs, and other licensed tradespeople hold state-required credentials. All crews are covered under Novum's company insurance.
