The vendor list
How it will work
Every entry will carry one of three labels, so you always know what you're getting.
- Neighbors recommend — named in our neighborhood group by people who hired them.
- I've used them — people I've hired myself. This list starts small and grows slowly.
- Highly rated locally — well reviewed, with the rating and the date I checked. Not a personal recommendation.
Nobody on this list paid to be on it. No referral fees, no ads, no sponsorships.
What's taking time
Every entry gets checked against its live Google reviews before it goes up, because a bad recommendation lands on me, and on you.
