Missing evidence lowers the score because we can't check it. It doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Claiming a profile never changes the score. Evidence context, not a guarantee of workmanship.

Why this helps you judge trust: this trader is linked to a registered company with named people who are legally accountable for it, on an official register anyone can check, a layer of accountability an unregistered trader doesn't offer. Around 6 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Highlights
“This company was first class, they were very detailed in their explanation of works in both the initial consultation, thought the work process and this was equally replicated in their written estimate of works. Extremely articulate in terms of attention to detail. Punctual and very clean. I have already recommended them to a few friends.”
“We had several issues with our kitchen and utility room sinks. An instant hot water unit was damaged and leaking, the pipework was a mess, the water softener was noisy and the sinks were gurgling. On day 2 found a block in the drains causing the outdoor manholes to almost overflow. Rob did an amazing job fixing everything, the pipework under the sinks is all redone and looks very neat (& quiet). It's hard to find people that do things right these days and explain all the issues clearly. Highly recommended and would definitely use for any future work.”
“James completed the work on time and on budget and to a high standard. Thank you.”

Worth checking yourself
Only a few public reviews are shown. Ask for recent references you can contact.
Confirm they cover your area and can actually come out in your timeframe before anything else.
Read recent reviews for reliability and turning up on time, not only the quality of the work.
Agree the call-out fee up front, and be wary of large upfront deposits for an emergency job.
