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
“Alan was very gentle with us, and happy to go into detail with us about every part of the work. Its hard to explain but it felt like being looked after by family. He made sure we understood each product, each piece of work and talked through any difficult bits. The finish is excellent, we've had lots of compliments. He was also very upfront where something may need revisiting later. We are 100% having him back for any future work. A safe pair of hands all through and reasonable quotations that reflect his commitment to good materials and workmanship.”
“Al and his team completed our extension and decking area. Their workmanship is second to none and all finished to a high standard. The team are lovely and go above and beyond. They kept us well informed all the way, even when they found some underlying issues we weren’t aware of they weren’t phased and completed the job on budget.”
“I had a very large extension to my original patio. The work is first class and even more important to me was how they respected my original patio, driveway and gardend etc making sure everything was left clean and tidy. They care about what they deliver and their work ethic was impressive. All the builders were really nice and there was great communication - they involved me in everything that needed my input. I would have these builders back without question. Thanks guys it was a pleasure and loving my very much extended patio.”

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.
