It isn’t proof that the company never knocks. Each company’s badge comes from the sales model in its research record. The badge is shown for context and isn’t part of the Handshake Score; documented sales conduct at the door counts under sales and contract fairness. ## Comparisons 24 head-to-head comparisons of companies with locations in the same state. For each state, we took the five best-ranked companies with a location there and paired each one with the others. A pair that comes up in more than one state is listed once, and every pair shares at least one state. - [Cascade Pest Control vs. Interstate Pest Management](https://handshakereviews.com/compare/cascade-pest-control-vs-interstate-pest-management.md): #1 vs. #2, 9.6 vs. 9.5.

It’s computed only from verified facts in the company’s research record, across five weighted factors. Every point added or taken away traces to a sourced fact, and each company’s page shows the full breakdown with links to the evidence. - Customer satisfaction: 30% - Complaint record: 20% - Sales and contract fairness: 20% - Licensing and compliance: 15% - Legal and regulatory record: 15% Missing data never counts for or against a company. When a factor can’t be scored, it’s left out, the other weights are rescaled, and the company’s page says which factor is missing.
