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.

Josh installed a breakfast bar in our new open plan kitchen with custom storage in the bar. He also reinforced a wall with extra support and mounted our TV on a moveable bracket. It’s worked out perfectly we can see the TV from the sofa or pull it out and turn it to face the breakfast bar. It’s exactly what we were after and he’s a really friendly and helpful chap. He was happy to answer any question and have me a good understanding of what was the best way to go about it.

Having recently moved into our property, Joshua gave us a very competitive quote and completed all of the work in a timely manner. I was impressed with the quality and design ideas for our cottage, encompassing very old parts of the building and a new extension. Great communication and specialist trade connections which made the project go smoothly

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 register
Never 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.
