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
“Scott has done several jobs for us including fencing, laying a patio and building a wooden bbq shelter. We have always had a great service from Scott and he is also able to recommend excellent tradespeople for other trades. He always does a professional job and we are really happy with the work he has done. We would highly recommend him and he has done jobs for other family members. Scott is also able to recommend the best products etc for the job and give his opinion on whether something could be improved. He has an excellent manner and gets the job done.”
Detailed reviews
Was disappointed by the lack of communication - they did not answer emails promptly and failed to answer their mobile when called. As a consequence decided to engage a different company to carry out the work.
