Jamie did an exceptionally good job in replacing my broken UPVC front door lock. The door is so old that replacement locks are hard to find, but Jamie eventually found one after doing a lot of research. Once he had the new lock, he fitted it very quickly, and worked cleanly and efficiently. Overall, he took the stress out of a stressful situation, and I cannot recommend him too highly.

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.

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