How a winner is chosen

01

Build the candidate set

Every licensed business of that type operating in the city is pulled from state licensing records and local permit filings.
02

Screen on hard records

Active license, current insurance, and a clean disciplinary and complaint history across the preceding 36 months.
03

Read the service record

Public review history is read for recurring themes rather than star averages. Callbacks, billing disputes and responsiveness carry the most weight.
04

Publish with reasons

One winner is named and the reasoning is published on the award page, alongside the category methodology.
