To provide our users with reliable and up-to-date information about the best contractors, we adhere to the following criteria when compiling our ratings: Aggregated Review Ratings: We analyze the cumulative ratings of companies from three major US review platforms: Facebook, Google, and Yelp. By summing up the scores from these platforms, we draft a preliminary list of frontrunners. Detailed Review Analysis: Companies on our shortlist undergo an additional review. We carefully examine negative feedback, analyzing the appropriateness and quality of company responses. Our team of experts also pays special attention to detecting potentially artificially inflated positive reviews. Licensing:A crucial criterion is that the company holds the appropriate license to conduct its business. This ensures that the company's services comply with legislation and industry standards. Active Online Presence:A company's portfolio and active social media accounts attest to its transparency and readiness for open dialogue with customers. We're continually refining our approach to evaluating companies and plan to introduce a measure of customer inquiry handling quality in the near future. This will provide even more transparency and assurance for our users when choosing a reliable contractor.
