    In this section, you can see: 

    • The provider’s company name and logo. 
    • The Service Coverage is based on the number of counties the provider serves. The coverage may be crucial if you are looking for reliable providers with a big chain of departments nationwide. 
      • Local. Serving under 15 unique counties and HQ based within 30 miles of location search. 
      • Regional. Serving 16–100 unique counties and HQ and/or Regional offices based within 50 miles of location search. 
      • Multi-regional. Serving 101–500 unique counties and HQ and/or Regional offices based within 100 miles of location search. 
      • National. Serving 501+ unique counties and HQ and/or Regional offices based within 250 miles of location search. 
    • SC Clients shows the number of clients a provider works with via ServiceChannel. It is a good criterion when your choice is based on how familiar the provider is with the platform. 
    • Industries in which the provider primarily works. Viewing the industries, you may decide how well the provider knows the job specifics in the retail sector, for example.  
    • Trades the provider serves. Hover over the ..more phrase to view other industries. The provider could be good at scores and have a matching industry, but it is crucial for you that they serve specific trades, for example, HVAC.
