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.

Official checkOn the public register
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 8 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.

Highlights
“We & his team were very professional & reliable.They removed my existing patio & created a new patio with porcelain tiles.They also widened our flower beds & added a mower step & installed a new shed.”
“Our back garden needed a major refresh and the team from One Oak delivered. The existing two-tiered patio and path to a shed were replaced with porcelain paving. This work included paving curved steps, new brick headers, new stairs, retaining walls and a new raised bed. For such a large project, it was a relief the trust we put into Ed and his team was not misplaced. Throughout the work, their attention to detail didn’t waver and the exchange of ideas made the project feel like a collaboration. We’re very pleased with the result and look forward to using this rejuvenated area more this summer.”
“Ed has done a wonderful job on our garden and drive. He was happy to take my (very) rough sketch and turn it into a well-thought-through reality. I have been impressed by the care they have taken and their attention to detail. We have had a new patio laid, raised beds created, a beautiful herringbone brick path and new lawn. All has been done to a very high standard. Ed and his team are friendly, polite and reliable. I would not hesitate to recommend One Oak.”

What to check before you hire
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.
