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
“I needed 6 internal doors and frames, from door and some skirting boards to be repainted. Steve was the only decorator to visit in person before quoting for the job. He arrived in time each day of doing the job & kept me updated as to what was going on, & then tidied up when leaving. Highly recommended.”
“What a fantastic experience of quality skillmanship and great customer service. I am so happy with the end result. The attention to detail and finding solutions to my interior design was outstanding. Now my number 1 contact for all my decorating requirements.”
