How this list is built. Every listing names home service trades as a market and sits in the lead marketplace category. Order is editor's pick, then explicit trade coverage, then a published price, then name. Nobody pays to appear or to rank. The publisher's own product is labelled and gets no adjustment. Full methodology.
