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.

Steve Hatton5.0 / 5 ·

I planned to have this company do just a small painting work on my house, however as the quality and service was up to such high standards I ended up getting them to repaint and decorate my whole house. Great company, hard-working and friendly staff. I would recommend them anytime.

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