What We Do
For chimney-sweeps working York (especially around Haxby and Clifton), this is the unflattering bit nobody warns chimney-sweep owners about. Most chimney-sweeps in York are invisible for the urgent searches that bring jobs. Not a DIY platform. Not a course. Not a coaching call. We do all of it for you. Website, Google profile, reviews, SEO, missed-call recovery, monthly report. Done.
For chimney-sweeps in York, the search terms that matter are not "chimney-sweep" on its own. The buying-intent searches are urgent variations like "chimney inspections" and "soot build-up". We target those exact phrases on your Google profile and on the chimney-sweep pages of your site.
If you cover smoke problems and chimney inspections as a chimney-sweep, your customers are searching for those exact words on Google before they call anyone. Chimney Sweeps who match those phrases on their Google listing pick up the calls before the competitors do.
Why Chimney Sweeps Lose Calls Around Here
For chimney-sweeps working York, the picture looks like this. Most chimney-sweeps in York are losing work to a handful of competitors with better-ranked Google listings. The honest truth: most local businesses lose more work to bad Google visibility than to bad service. Your skill is fine. Your work is fine. Your prices are fine. Your problem is that Google can't find you.
Real Clients We Already Run
For chimney-sweeps covering York, the part of this most owners miss is the local search angle. The chimney-sweep customers in York Google your trade plus a neighbourhood name, and only the top three results get the call. 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.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
The SEO bit covers: keyword research, on-page optimisation, technical SEO (site speed, schema, sitemaps), Google Business Profile management, citation building, and monthly ranking reports. All of it is included, no add-ons.
Missed-Call Text-Back
The maths on missed-call text-back is simple: most callers do not leave a voicemail, but most do read text messages. So the auto-text catches the calls voicemail loses. For an average UK trade that is 10-15 saved calls a week.
Review Automation
Most trades sit on 5-15 reviews for years because asking is awkward. The automation removes the awkwardness. Click, send, done. The reviews accumulate in the background.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
It is £199 setup, which covers your website, then £199 a month for the ongoing management. Less than £6.70 a day. You can cancel after three months.
What do you actually do every month?
We sort your Google Business Profile so it actually appears when locals search. We build you a website that loads fast on a phone. We get reviews coming in automatically after every job. We text customers back when you miss a call. And we send you a monthly report that shows what changed.
Do I need to do anything technical?
No. You do not need to do anything technical at any point. We handle the website, the Google profile, the SEO, the reviews, all of it. The only thing we ask for is information about your business and a few photos if you have them.
What if I already have a website?
Fine. We will migrate it over. The domain stays in your name. The content comes with it. The bits that work, we keep. The bits that do not, we replace.
How long until I see results?
Truthfully, we cannot put a number on it because every business is different. What we can tell you is what happened with our existing clients: most started seeing extra calls from Google within four to six weeks and meaningful ranking improvements by month three.
Can I cancel?
Three months is the minimum because that is how long it takes to do meaningful SEO work. After that you can leave whenever you want. Website yours, domain yours, no exit fees.
