Working London as a drainage
The UK's capital and largest city, home to 9 million people. For drainages that means a steady flow of work, but also a steady flow of competition. Milder than most of the UK but prone to urban heat island effects and surface water flooding. The trades that are visible on Google get the lion's share of the local market.
Looking at our existing drainages, the calls in London come overwhelmingly from Camden, Dulwich and the catchment around Barnet. The drainage jobs in London are usually sewer repairs or blocked drains, and the customer base is shaped by the property mix in those neighbourhoods.
What We Do
For drainages working London (especially around Hackney and Islington), this is the unflattering bit nobody warns drainage owners about. Most drainages in London are invisible for the urgent searches that bring jobs. Run by one person who actually knows what he is doing, not an agency where you get passed between five account managers. Website, Google profile, SEO, reviews, missed-call recovery. All done, all reported on monthly.
For drainages in London, the version of this we run looks like weekly Google profile updates with photos from real drainage jobs, four blog posts a month written for the searches drainages customers actually use, and a monthly performance report you can read on a phone.
If you are a drainage, you already know the bread and butter: collapsed drains and blocked drains, with cctv drain surveys when the season turns. Homeowners with blocked or damaged drains, homebuyers needing surveys, which means drainages need to be findable when those exact searches happen.
Why Drainages Lose Calls Around Here
When we look at drainages in London who have gone quiet, the cause is almost always the same one. Their Google Business Profile is half-empty and they are not ranking for the drainage keywords London customers actually use. Most owners blame the economy when their phone goes quiet. The actual cause is almost always the same: a competitor with a better Google listing has taken your spot in the local 3-pack. That's it. That's the fix.
Real Clients We Already Run
For drainages working London, the picture looks like this. Most drainages in London are losing work to a handful of competitors with better-ranked Google listings. Honest comparison: most marketing agencies show you a wall of logos. We have a list of seven names you can verify on Google Maps. Pinnacle Plumbers, Tami Plumbing, Discount Heating NW, Optimum HVAC, M&R Property and Paving, Fylde Bathrooms, Alan's Plumbing. Look them up. They are real.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
Most SEO agencies work in three-month cycles and do nothing in between. We work weekly. Google Business Profile post on Monday, citation check on Tuesday, ranking pull on Wednesday, content review on Thursday. By Friday we know what is working and what to change.
Missed-Call Text-Back
When the phone rings and you can't pick up, the customer's phone gets a text within 10 seconds. The text is short and human: a hello, an apology, a question about what they need. Most reply within five minutes. About a third book in.
Review Automation
We integrate the reviews automation with whatever system you use to track jobs. Could be a job sheet, could be Google Calendar, could be a quick text from you. The trigger is flexible. The reply text is the same.
What It Costs
If you are budgeting, plan for £199 in month one and £199 in months two and three (the minimum term). After that it is rolling at £199/month. Cancel by text whenever you like.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
Two numbers, no surprises. £199 for the website itself (built and hosted by us, yours to keep). £199 a month after that for the management. Three months minimum.
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?
If you can text us a logo and a few photos of your work, you have done your bit. Everything else, including the boring technical stuff like SSL certificates and search console setup, is on us.
What if I already have a website?
We work with what you have got. If your current website is broken or slow, we rebuild it. If it is fine, we keep it and just sort out the SEO and Google profile. Your domain stays the same either way.
How long until I see results?
Honest answer: anyone who guarantees specific numbers is lying to you. We can guarantee the work gets done properly. The missed-call text-back system pays for itself the first time you save a job. SEO results take longer, usually three to six months for meaningful movement.
Can I cancel?
After three months you can cancel any time, no notice period, no exit fees. The website is yours to keep. We transfer the domain and the site to whoever you want.
