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
“Simon’s company was highly recommended to me following being let down by a number of other tradespersons. I reviewed some of the work noting that they delivers high value commercial reinstatements for large scale utility companies. My driveway was not in good shape and following an inspection, discussion about the work and planning the dates it was finished today. I had two cracks that were fixed, existing double layers of previous concrete sealer stripped and then the finished driveway was coloured and sealed. It honestly looks like they have laid a brand new drive for me today!!”

Worth checking yourself
Their public evidence comes from a single source. Look them up on another site before deciding.
No credentials are shown here and the business has not claimed this profile. Ask to see certificates and insurance directly.
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.
