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

Detailed reviews
These are the individual reviews we hold for Stevens Brothers Building and Carpentry Limited, including the highlights above. The 64 headline total is the review volume reported across public review sources.
We were recommended Stevens Brothers for an extension replacement and could not have been happier with the standard of work. Despite running into unexpected problems along the way, Matt & Luke were great at communicating with us, reliable and were clear about timelines and expectations. I would not hesitate for a second to have them back for further work in the future or recommend their services.
This is the 2nd time that we have used Luke and Matt for building works and would still highly recommend them! They remain a family business, which reflects well on the work they carry out. They are reliable, have a good eye for detail and take pride in what they do. Any additional costs on top of what was agreed were well signposted and discussed before they carried out the work. Testament to their work was that after 8 months of extensive work on the property, there was only a couple of minor snags that were rectified within a day.

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 registerNever 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.
