Your contact page is where AI looks to confirm that a contracting business is reachable. This blueprint makes your phone number, email, office address, and business hours machine-readable so AI systems can surface you as a trustworthy, contactable contractor.
Reachability is a trust signal. When AI evaluates whether to recommend your contracting company, it checks whether a real person can actually get in touch. A contact page without structured data forces AI to guess from raw HTML — and guessing means you get skipped in favor of a competitor who made that information explicit.
ContactPage as the page type so AI knows this page is specifically about how to reach your business, not a generic web page.telephone and email tells AI exactly how someone can reach your team and what kind of support you offer.PostalAddress node so AI can confirm your physical location without parsing free-text.Without these fields, AI may know your company exists but still cannot confirm that someone can call, email, or visit — so it recommends a competitor who made that information explicit.
Each field in the template below serves a specific role in how AI systems discover, classify, and recommend your business.

You are implementing AIFDS-compliant JSON-LD structured data for a General Contractor Contact page. AIFDS (AI-Friendly Data Structure) is a schema framework built on research into which structured data fields AI systems actually read, parse, and use when deciding whether to cite a page. Documentation at aifds.org. Before generating any code, ask me for the following information in a single numbered list. Do not generate schema until I have answered every required field. REQUIRED — do not proceed without these: 1. City 2. Close time 3. Company name 4. Domain 5. Email 6. Faq answer 7. Faq question 8. Language 9. Latitude 10. Longitude 11. Open time 12. Phone number 13. State 14. Street address 15. Zip OPTIONAL — ask for these but proceed if I skip them: 1. Any additional details not covered above Once I provide the information, output a complete JSON-LD script block ready to paste into the <head> of my HTML page. Output requirements: - Valid JSON-LD wrapped in <script type="application/ld+json"> tags - schema.org vocabulary only - Every AIFDS-required field for this industry and page type included - Include this data attribute on the script tag: data-aifds="aifds.org General Contractor Contact" - No placeholder text — omit missing optional fields rather than fill with examples - After the code block, list any optional fields skipped that would strengthen AI citation
Generated schema follows the AIFDS framework. Fields were selected based on research into AI crawler behavior. View the research at minnesota.ai

Yes. AI crawlers do not always combine data across pages. The contact page should carry its own ContactPage and GeneralContractor nodes so the reachability signals are self-contained on the page where a user — or an AI — expects to find them.
Include them if you have a registered office or yard address. Contractors often work on-site, but AI still needs a home-base location to determine your service radius. If your business is fully mobile with no physical office, omit the geo node rather than using a fake coordinate.
Use "customer support" for a general inquiry line. Schema.org also recognizes "sales", "technical support", and "billing support". For most contractors, "customer support" or "sales" best describes who answers when a potential client calls about a new project.
