How we verify listings
A listing has to earn its place. We would rather show fewer companies than invent a complete map.
- We find a live official page — the company’s own site, or a clearly official office page on that company’s domain — that says they design or install landscape, outdoor, or low-voltage lighting.
- We record the URL and the date we checked it (this first set was checked 14 November 2026).
- City and state have to appear on that page, or in official structured data on it. We don’t guess a street or a phone number onto the public site.
- A filter is marked yes only when the page supports it, and we keep a short evidence line. “Licensed electrician on staff” is the company’s wording, not a state-board lookup we performed.
- We do not use Google Places or Maps as a listing source. We don’t scrape a locator against its terms.
If something is wrong, use “Update your listing (free)” on the page, or email us. We’ll correct it.
