“There is little I can add that hasn't already been said by other satisfied customers. Last year David redecorated our bedroom and we were delighted with the result. This year he carried out a complete redecoration of our living room, including papering a feature wall around the fireplace. We had chosen a particularly complex and large design which demanded a high degree of experience and professionalism to successfully complete because of the irregularity of the area he was covering. He achieved this with care and skill. If you need a professional result, go to a professional like David.”

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.
