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
“Came to assess the tree and gave a quote. Offered to do the work there and then. J explained what he was going to do, checked I was happy with that, then got on with the job. Checked again that I was happy with what had been done. Tidied up afterwards and gave some advice re when tree might need pruning again etc. Happy customer.”
“I recommend this company for their excellent service, professional and friendly approach, knowledge and communication. Jesse was very understanding and sympathetic when I had to make the right but difficult decision to have my much loved cherry tree cut down. Jesse cut and saved some small tree logs for a keepsake for my garden.”
“Jesse was really helpful in helping me to think through some light work to a tree, and with dealing with some requirements around my buildings insurance. The quote was very reasonable and he was able to complete the job quickly with good communication. Work was completed neatly. Will definitely consider this business for future work.”

Worth checking yourself
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
Get an itemised quote that separates plants and materials, any machinery or skip hire, and labour. A vague 'garden makeover' lump sum hides where the money goes and makes extra charges easy to add later.
Be wary of paying a large sum up front 'for materials'. Agree staged payments against work you can see completed, especially for hard landscaping like patios, decking, paving or driveways.
Tree work and anything near a boundary can be regulated. Protected trees and conservation areas often need permission, and removing a protected tree can be an offence. Confirm what is allowed, and that they carry public-liability insurance, before work starts.
