How the index is built
Searches run separately inside the Cambridge and Somerville location areas for each published home-service category.
Google and Apify records remain labeled as discovery data. They are not described as independently verified businesses.
Addresses are matched exactly against MassGIS Master Address Points. Ambiguous and unmatched locations are kept off the map.
Official city GIS polygons assign map neighborhoods without changing permanent guide URLs. Ratings remain dated discovery snapshots, not recommendations.
Before the estimate
Confirm the exact scope, current licensing where applicable, insurance, permits, schedule, warranty terms, and who will perform the work. Get written estimates for material jobs.
