BOZEMAN, Mont. -

A pizzeria in Bozeman got one unexpected visitor during a lunch rush.

Last month a car slammed into the kitchen, leaving over $25,000 in damage. We were able to get a first-hand look at the damage caused when it crashed into the side of Tarantino's Pizzeria on North 7th Avenue.

The owner, Ryan Olson, says he remembers the exact moment of the crash.

"I was in the dining room serving some customers and from the kitchen I heard a loud crash," he explained to us.

We went over to the restaurant Tuesday. Walking around we could see the damaged area, including pieces of concrete that the wall was made out of.

Olson says, "We're changing the brand of the entire restaurant. We have a section we are currently operating that will be a pub and pizzeria and are taking over the rest of the building, which is something we are really excited about."

Olsen said the renovations were going to happen anyway.

"It was kind of fortuitous that this happened because all of the construction and remodeling was going to have to take place during off-business hours."

Because of the unexpected crash, and good insurance, the pizzeria will be able to afford to close down in order to come back better than ever.

If youre looking to re-do your bathroom or upgrade your kitchen, youre probably looking for contractors and home repairs professionals who work with your budget, your neighborhood, and your personal style. While companies like Angies List have popularlized the idea of finding the perfect person online, many people still ask friends and neighbors for suggestions before venturing online for advice.

A new startup from Seattle is launching in beta on Wednesday in attempt to change this. The company is called Porch, and it has$6.25 million in seed funding from some noted investors likeSV Angel/Ron Conway, Chamath Palihapitiya, Javier Olivan, Jeff Skoll, Bill Lee, and others.

The home improvement and re-modeling market is a huge business, and its ripe for disruption because so much of the recommendations and transactions still exist off-line.

Porch is pulling in a variety of data from public records (although it wouldnt say which ones), and will be using that data along with user reviews and photos in attempt to create a free version of Angies List that provides more location-based information with a social layer on top.

It willautomatically let you see kitchen remodels happening in their neighborhood, what the cost of the materials were pegged at, who worked on it, and endorsements from people in their social networks, Asha Sharma, the VP of marketing explained. Its free for users and its based on the recommendations from people who live in your neighborhood who have homes like yours.

Porch is currently only available to a select few users, although they can request access at the companys site. It will be free for homeowners to use, and will be opening more widely to all users later this year.
