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
“Zac and his team did a brilliant job of our kitchen renovation. Our build also included adaptations to plumbing, electrics and plastering. Zac and his team were incredibly polite and accommodating to any additional requests we had. We would recommend Zac and his team without hesitation.”
“We would wholly recommend Zak and his team for fitting a kitchen. Not only did he do a great job, with attention to detail but.....he was sooo flexible. Where other fitters had said ‘this or that’ couldn't be done, Zak found a way to do it - despite our living in an old house, where nothing is square! Although he is multi-skilled, his carpentry background means he can make anything fit anywhere...AND make it look good. Thank you Zak.”
