What We Do
Across the damp-proofings we have spoken to in Stoke-on-Trent, the same pattern keeps coming up. The damp-proofings ranking in the top three of Google Maps for Stoke-on-Trent get most of the calls. We do the technical work that most owners hate: writing schema markup, optimising local citations, monitoring rank for the keywords that actually convert, fixing site speed issues, sorting NAP consistency. You never have to know what any of those words mean. We just do the work and report on the result.
Damp Proofings working Stoke-on-Trent get a slightly different setup than other trades. We focus the keyword targeting on the urgent damp-proofing searches (the ones with words like "condensation problems" and "rising damp"). We structure the damp-proofing website so the phone number is always visible.
Bread-and-butter jobs for damp-proofings: basement waterproofing, condensation problems, penetrating damp. The customers searching for a damp-proofing are usually homeowners with damp and mould issues, homebuyers after surveys, landlords with complaints, and they Google before they call.
Why Damp Proofings Lose Calls Around Here
For damp-proofings working Stoke-on-Trent, the picture looks like this. Most damp-proofings in Stoke-on-Trent are losing work to a handful of competitors with better-ranked Google listings. When you ask happy customers how they'd find someone like you, almost all of them say Google. So if Google isn't showing your business, the work goes to whoever it is showing. Doesn't matter how good you are at the actual job.
Real Clients We Already Run
In Stoke-on-Trent, the damp-proofings who keep their diary full are not the cheapest or the best. They are the ones whose Google listing turns up first when somebody searches for damp-proofing services in Stoke-on-Trent. We get your damp-proofing listing into that group. The trades on our list right now have a combined 700+ reviews on Google between them. That is the kind of business we work with: established, well-reviewed, but not yet visible enough on Google. We bridge that last gap.

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
We send the request as a polite text the same day, with a single tap link to your Google profile. No app downloads, no signup, no friction. The customer is on the review page in two taps.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
All in: £199 setup (one-off, covers the website, yours to keep) and £199 a month for everything else. We do not do tiered pricing or upsells. That is the price.
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.
