How we picked emergency electricians in Newtown

Ordering started with customer feedback, weighted toward the firms with the most of it. Points then went to a published licence number, to after-hours work stated in the business's own material, and to a base in Newtown or close by. Each pick was then checked against the jobs it names, so blackouts count only where the business mentions them.
