How we rate, and how we make money
Ratings come from verified facts — credentials, in-house capability, parts access, quoted turnaround, warranty terms and complaint history. A business cannot buy, influence, or remove its rating.
We make money from clearly labelled category sponsors, who appear in the panel marked Sponsored and nowhere else.
