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.

Highlights
“The back door of my mother's bungalow was in need of urgent repair as the joints were separating and the lock had started to malfunction. I contacted Tom one evening by email and had a response the following morning. He was able to pop round the same day, provided a temporary solution on the spot and made an appointment to repair the door and change the lock the following week. The repairs were done to a high standard and our full satisfaction. I found Tom to be very responsive, friendly and reliable.”
“Tom arrived when he said he would , worked to a high standard and kept a very tidy work space throughout. He is very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. I would recommend him to my closest friends”
“Tom did a brilliant job on our old front door which was getting very stiff to open and close. He also fitted a new lock. The door is now a perfect fit. He worked very calmly and neatly, left the place very tidy. Highly recommended.”

This trade isn't licensed in the UK, so anyone can set up. TrustMark is the only Government-endorsed quality scheme for work in and around the home - check whether they're registered, or find a TrustMark-registered business.
Check the TrustMark registerNever pay a large deposit up front. Agree a staged payment schedule tied to completed milestones, and hold a small retention until snagging is done.
Get it in writing: an itemised quote with scope, materials, start and finish dates, and how any changes (variations) will be priced.
Be wary of a cash-only price or pressure to start tomorrow. Both are red flags for an unaccountable job.
