2011 is now complete and the reviews are in. Who will win our prestigious Best of ’11 awards in Toronto, Calgary, Vancouver and 4 other regions?
Will some of our champions from last year repeat?
Our team will be compiling the results over the next week and announcing the week following.
As a reminder, the “Best Of” lists will be awarded companies in Toronto, Hamilton, Ottawa, Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, and, for the first time, in the South Western Ontario region. We take pride in making sure that each winner is well deserved and we have a selection criteria to help us figure that out.
The criteria, as we reminded you in our post in November are:
- Only 2011 Reviews count – All reviews must be received before midnight of December 31st EST.
- Companies must have a minimum of 5 reviews in 2011 to qualify for the award.
- Awards are determined based on the HomeStars ‘Best Of’ match algorithm, which uses both the quality and quantity of reviews.
- Companies can only win in one category.
- Companies must be in the category they wish to be considered for before midnight on December 31st.
- Companies listed in multiple categories will be considered in all of their categories for a best fit win. Reviews and ratings will be the deciding factor.
- Companies who have multiple service areas attached to their listing, can only be considered in their primary address that appears on their listing’s account. Companies are welcome to change their office address temporarily between December 31st and the announcement date if they wish to compete in a different service area they have purchased.
Here are our announcement dates:
- Jan 25 – Toronto & Vancouver
- Jan 26th Edmonton & Calgary
- Jan 27th Ottawa, Hamilton, SW Ontario
We don’t reveal any information prior to the announcement so keep an eye out for new blog posts announcing winners and new crowns going on our winner’s listing pages on those days.
Our official ceremonies and prize awards will be announced over the next couple weeks as soon as we lock down locations and dates. Keep your eye out here and in our newsletters.
