How to read the scorecards

Rating is the live Google star average. Review volume shows how many customers have rated each company, ranked against the others. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from thousands of people counts for more than a 5.0 from a few. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews.
