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.

I called Jim in to to replace a shattered bracket in my wardrobe. He hunted round four different places before he tracked down something suitable in a plumbing shop, then swiftly mended the wardrobe. It is now better than it was before! Very pleasant, helpful and punctual!
Excellent & quick. Needed heavy wooden gates fixed, as one half had dropped & dragged on floor. Jim was punctual, quick & efficient. My gates are lovely now, & fitted properly. Will use again. Thank you Jim :)
