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.

Mel worked methodically and carefully - very tidy and clean worker. However due to no fault at all of Mel’s it did not work out as we wanted but Mel went above and beyond to try and sort it out for a better outcome. All in all totally recommend. Mel will be our first port of call when we decide to go down another route to getting an electric door fitted.
We contacted Mel when one of the suspension cables on our garage door frayed and broke after many years of use. Mel gave me a quote over the phone and arrived promptly on the agreed date to inspect the problem. He carried out the repair there & then and did so perfectly. He is a lovely guy and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone needing assistance with a garage door repair or a replacement door.
