What do you need done?

The method

Real reviews.
Simplified into one honest score.

A 5.0 from six reviews shouldn't beat a 4.8 from two hundred. We pull real Google ratings, weight them for volume, and favor businesses earning recent, consistent praise. One transparent score — the same math for everyone, re-scored every month.

Who's behind the list

A real person, not a national directory.

I built The 701 List because when I went looking for a good local contractor myself, all I found were national directories that list whoever paid them and Facebook threads with three replies. Nobody was actually vetting who's good in North Dakota — so I started doing it, one trade, one town at a time.
