These terms and conditions govern your use of the Top5Trades UK website at top5trades.co.uk, operated by EightySix Digital (Christchurch, New Zealand). By using this website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
We may update these terms from time to time. The date at the top of this page reflects when they were last updated. Continued use of the website after any changes constitutes acceptance.
Top5Trades is an independent trade directory. We publish curated lists of what we consider to be the top 5 local tradespeople in each location and trade category, based on our own independent research. We are not a referral agency, lead generation platform or booking service.
We do not guarantee the quality, availability or conduct of any business listed on this website. Listings represent our editorial assessment at the time of research and are subject to change.
The organic Top 5 listings on this website are editorially selected. No business pays to appear in the organic Top 5. Our selection criteria include local reputation, professional credentials and evidence of active trading.
We take reasonable care to ensure listings are accurate and up to date, but we cannot guarantee that every listing reflects the current trading status, reputation or quality of a business. If you believe a listing is inaccurate, please contact us and we will review it promptly.
A single featured placement above the organic Top 5 is available on each trade page on a subscription basis. Featured placements are clearly labelled as such. Featured businesses do not influence the organic Top 5 rankings.
