New York Contractor Leads Scraper (Phone & Address)

Pain points

• A licence roll lists who holds a licence, often for some trades or some cities only; it is not a list of the trade businesses working across New York with their phone numbers.
• Building a New York contractor list by hand means searching one town and one trade at a time.
• A maps search returns a few hundred businesses per query, so a statewide trade list takes many searches.

What we solve

• 26,630 New York contractor businesses in 15 trades, from general contractors and roofers to well drillers (2026-11-10).
• Phone on 93% of rows, website on 77%, street address on nearly all, e-mail on 29% (2026-11-10).
• Filter by trade and city, or look up firms by name; a row without a phone, website or street can have it added by business name (on by default, its own small charge).

Summary

New York contractor businesses: general contractors and builders, roofing and gutters, electricians, HVAC, plumbing, concrete and masonry, painting, carpentry and flooring, excavation and paving, landscaping and fencing, fire protection, garage doors, damage restoration, handymen and well drillers, from New York, Brooklyn, Rochester to the smallest towns. A row is one business: its name, trade, phone, website, e-mail where published, street, city and ZIP. Businesses marked closed are left out. On 2026-11-10 that was 26,630 businesses: 24,646 with a phone, 20,556 with a website and 7,796 with an e-mail. With 'Include contact details' on (the default), a row missing a phone, website or street address is looked up by its name and town and gets what is found; the match is strict, so a firm that cannot be confirmed stays as it is. These are businesses that list themselves as contractors, not a licence roll.

Who it's for

• Building-material, roofing and HVAC suppliers selling to New York contractors
• General contractors finding New York subcontractors by trade and town
• Software, insurance and financing vendors building contractor lead lists
• Agencies and marketers running local campaigns for trade businesses

Pricing (Pay Per Event)

You pay per result (dataset-item) — no charge for empty runs. Example: 500 contractor leads at $0.004/result ≈ $2.00.

With 'Include contact details' on (the default), a row without a phone, website or street address that gets one is also charged a 'Contact details found' event ($0.005); every other row costs only the row. Notices (unknown trade, no match) are free. Apify platform usage is billed separately per your plan.

Use cases

• Subcontractor sourcing: New York electricians, plumbers or excavation firms in one export.
• Territory planning: contractors by town and trade for a rep's route.
• Firm look-ups: find a New York contractor's phone, website and address by its name.

Why this actor

• New York contractor businesses by trade, in one run instead of town by town.
• Phone on 93% of rows and website on 77% (2026-11-10); a missing one can be added by name.
• A strict name match for added contacts: a firm that cannot be confirmed stays without one rather than getting another firm's.
• Pay per row; the contact charge applies only to rows that get one, and notices are free.

Limitations & updates

Covers publicly listed businesses in 15 contractor trades; a firm with no public business listing is not in it, and a business in two trades appears under its main one. Not a licence roll. Data comes from a stored copy refreshed monthly (its date is in the run log); a business that closed since may still appear.

FAQ

Where does the data come from?

From publicly available business listings: what New York contractors publish about themselves (name, trade, phone, website, address). Businesses marked closed are left out. Runs read a stored copy that we refresh every month (the run log gives its date). With 'Include contact details' on, a missing phone, website or street address is looked up by the business's name and town.

Is this a list of licensed contractors?

No. These are businesses that list themselves in a contractor trade, licensed or not. Check a licence with the state board or the city that issues it before you hire.

How many rows have a phone?

On 2026-11-10, 24,646 of 26,630 rows (93%) had a phone, 20,556 a website, 7,796 an e-mail and all but 49 a street address, before any contact was added.

Which trades are included?

General contractors (builders, remodelers, construction services), Roofing and gutters, Electricians, HVAC, Plumbing, Concrete and masonry, Painting, Carpentry and flooring (incl. countertops and windows), Excavation and paving, Landscaping and fencing, Fire protection, Garage doors, Damage restoration, Handyman and Well drilling.

How do I look up a firm?

Put business names in queries and set mode to lookup. A name matches when it is contained in the business name, ignoring case and punctuation.

How am I charged?

One 'Contractor lead' event per row returned, plus one 'Contact details found' event per row without a phone, website or street address that gets one when 'Include contact details' is on. Notices are free.

Works with AI assistants (MCP)

Callable as an MCP tool, so Claude, Cursor, VS Code Copilot and other MCP clients can run it directly. Grab the config from the MCP tab on this page — Apify hosts the server and keeps that snippet current, and OAuth signs you in on first connect, so no API token goes in your config file.

Then just ask:

"List roofing contractors in Rochester, New York, with their phone numbers and websites."

That is Trade 'Roofing and gutters', City 'Rochester'. Keep maxResults small on a first call. Runs started this way bill exactly like any other run.

Data & lawful use

This actor collects publicly available information that each listed business publishes for public lookup — licence records, business listings and the contact details professionals list there. Some of it identifies individuals (sole proprietors, licence holders, agents), so treat any names, phone numbers and emails in your results as personal data.

When you run this actor, you decide what is collected and what it is used for, so you are the controller of that data and we act only as your processor (Apify Standard Actor Contract). You need a lawful basis for your use, must honour opt-out and deletion requests, and must follow the marketing rules that apply to you (CAN-SPAM, TCPA, GDPR, CCPA and similar). Don't use the output for unsolicited bulk messaging, for screening covered by the FCRA, or for anything the source's own terms forbid.

Your results are stored in your own Apify account. We don't keep a copy of your results and don't sell or share them.
