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 10 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Highlights
“I had applied and gained planning permission for a large link-detached annex. Having sourced an architect I sought a local company to undertake the project. DLB were recommended by not 1 not 2 but 3 of my close colleague/ friends. Dan & Leon ( the D & L in DLB ) have been instrumental in ensuring the build has been smooth with the catchphrase ‘we’ll get it sorted’ on small issues from 3rd parties. Dan, Leon and their team on site, from the office and chosen outside trades have shown quality in their work, professionalism and dedication to completing this build. Highly recommended. Thank you”
“Great experience working with DLB who knocked through our lounge/kitchen….each stage of the work was coordinated well with their office and all the contractors were polite, tidy and professional….the level of the work was top notch and a pleasure to deal with DLB…highly recommend! Chris”
“DLB did a fantastic job. Great attention to detail. Everyone who contributed to the job was professional, friendly and happy to answer any queries. Would have no hesitation in recommending them.”

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.
