GUIDES
Every Park Slope service, vetted
Every guide here answers one question: who's actually good at this in Park Slope, and backs the answer with records you can check yourself.
The housing stock here is a century old, and the trade work it needs is specialized. The star-rating sites won't tell you who's actually licensed for it. That's the gap these guides fill.

HOW WE VET
A name only makes a guide if it clears both bars: community signal (Park Slope Parents, the Brownstoner forum, local reporting) and an active, verifiable license. Trades go through the NYC Department of Buildings, health professionals through the NYSED Office of the Professions, and movers through the federal FMCSA carrier database. We'd rather publish a short list we can stand behind than a long one padded with names we couldn't confirm.
Nothing here is for sale. We take no payment for an editorial recommendation, and any commercial relationship is disclosed on the page. Every guide is re-verified roughly every 90 days, and each one shows the date it was last checked.
