How we list businesses
Every listing tells you where its details came from and when they were last checked.
Researched vs confirmed
Each listing carries one of two labels:
- Researched from public sources — we found the details on the business’s own website, social media or public directories, and checked them on the date shown. The business hasn’t confirmed them with us yet. The sources are listed on each business page.
- Confirmed by the business — the business has checked its details with us on the date shown. On the business page, each detail is marked separately, so you can see exactly which ones were confirmed.
What we publish
Business name, phone numbers, website, the town it’s based in, the areas it covers and the services it offers. We publish an email address only when the business has confirmed it.
We don’t publish street addresses. Many window cleaners are sole traders who work from home.
Order of listings
On town pages, businesses based in that town come first, then those confirmed by the business, then everyone else in A–Z order. Nobody can pay to change their position.
Getting listed, corrected or removed
Listing is free. Use the request form to add a business, confirm or correct details, or ask for a listing to be removed. We act on every removal request, and we make sure that business isn’t added back when we next update the directory.
