“SDS completed the kitchen install in the time stated, they were polite, punctual and at the end of each day everything was left neat & tidy and out of the way. The quality of work is fantastic, there were a few adjustments that had to be made which were down to my measurements but that caused no problems. I would recommend SDS without hesitation and I would contact them again if I needed any other carpentry work in the future.”

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 7 years on the register also points to an established business rather than a brand-new one.
