Honest Google Ads Management for UK Chimney Sweeps
Built around the daily reality of being a chimney-sweep: you're on a job, your phone rings, you can't answer, you lose the call. We fix the lost-call problem and the not-getting-calls-in-the-first-place problem at the same time.

Why It's Different for Chimney Sweeps
The chimney-sweep market in the UK is brutal because most of the work comes from urgent searches. Peak demand September-November before heating season; spring clean-up after winter burning. That means there is no time to nurture leads. You either show up first or you do not get the call at all.
Bread-and-butter jobs for chimney-sweeps: bird nests in chimneys, smoke problems, soot build-up. The customers searching for a chimney-sweep are usually homeowners with wood burners or open fires, landlords with chimney properties, and they Google before they call.
What We Actually Do
When we sit down with chimney-sweeps and look at why the calls have stopped, this is what we usually find. The chimney-sweep business has reviews, has skill, but is invisible on Google for the right local searches. We don't sell you a thing and run. We run the entire online side of your business: Google listing, website, reviews, the lot. You get a monthly report and a phone number to text if anything is broken.
Chimney Sweeps get a slightly different setup than other trades. We focus the keyword targeting on the urgent chimney-sweep searches (the ones with words like "smoke problems" and "soot build-up"). We structure the chimney-sweep website so the phone number is always visible.
What Most Owners Get Wrong
Among the chimney-sweeps we have already taken on, every single one had the same bottleneck. Their Google profile was half-empty and their site was not ranking for the urgent chimney-sweep searches. The phones do not stop ringing because the work has dried up. They stop ringing because somebody else's listing is showing up first. That is the entire diagnosis nine times out of ten.
The Clients We Already Run
For chimney-sweeps reading this who already feel like they have tried everything, here is the bit nobody mentions. Most chimney-sweep marketing advice is generic and does not actually move the needle for chimney-sweeps. We are small on purpose. Seven paying clients right now: a mix of plumbers, heating engineers, paving and bathroom fitters across England and Wales. Every one of them we know by first name. Every one of them got a real result inside the first month.
Next Step: A Free Audit
If you want to know whether any of this would actually work for your business, the fastest answer is a free audit. We pull your Google listing, look at your site, check who's ranking above you locally, and tell you what we'd fix. No sales pitch attached. No commitment.
The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
The SEO work includes weekly Google Business Profile posts, a monthly fresh photo upload, citation consistency checks across the 30 directories Google watches, on-page optimisation tweaks based on what is ranking, and weekly position tracking. No copy-paste reports.
Missed-Call Text-Back
It is the cheapest way to get an immediate uplift in jobs because the customers were already calling you. They just gave up when nobody answered. The auto-text catches them mid-give-up and turns them back into a real conversation.
Review Automation
Reviews come in on autopilot. We set up a system that asks your customers right after the job, while they are still happy. About a third leave a review. Over a year that is the difference between 8 reviews and 60.
What It Costs
£199 setup. £199 a month. That covers the website, the Google profile, the reviews, the SEO, the missed-call texts, and a monthly report. Less than £6.70 a day.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
It is £199 a month plus a one-off £199 setup. Less than £6.70 a day. One job from Google pays for the month. Cancel anytime after the first three months.
What do you actually do every month?
Specifically: build and host your website, run your Google Business Profile weekly, set up review automation, set up missed-call text-back, write four blog posts a month, send a monthly report. That is the full list.
Do I need to do anything technical?
No tech skills needed. We built this for trades and small business owners who do not want to mess with WordPress or Wix or Google Search Console. We do all of that. You run your business.
What if I already have a website?
No problem. We can keep your existing site and improve it, or rebuild it from scratch, your call. Your domain stays the same. Your old URLs keep working. Nothing breaks for your existing customers.
How long until I see results?
We cannot promise specific numbers because nobody honest can. What we can promise is that the work gets done every week, you get a real monthly report, and most clients see their first new enquiry from Google within four to six weeks.
Can I cancel?
Three months in, then cancel any time. The website is yours forever. We hand over the domain and the codebase if you want them, or we leave the site running and just stop the management work.
