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.

How quickly they respond
What customers mention:
- Arrived within hours: "I had a blockage causing a leak in the kitchen, so I called and he came out within half hour." (Checkatrade, 24 Mar 2021)
- Came the next day: "On very short notice, I contacted Viktor via check a trade. He kindly visited the property the next day" (Checkatrade, 4 Jun 2021)
Use this as a reason to call them first, not a guarantee they can attend now. Confirm availability, timing, and call-out terms directly before you rely on it.

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