Working Reading as a drainage
Pretty much every drainage call in Reading starts the same way: someone in Sonning or Tilehurst needs help with blocked drains or cctv drain surveys, opens Google on their phone, and calls one of the first three results. That is the entire game.
Across the RG postcode area in Reading, drainages mostly handle collapsed drains and drain jetting. The neighbourhoods we see most drainage calls from in Reading are Woodley, Earley and Tilehurst.
What We Do
Drainages in Reading get the same diagnosis from us when they ask why their phone has slowed down. The drainage listings ranking above them in Reading have more reviews, fresher photos, and weekly Google profile posts. 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.
For drainages in Reading, the search terms that matter are not "drainage" on its own. The buying-intent searches are urgent variations like "blocked drains" and "cctv drain surveys". We target those exact phrases on your Google profile and on the drainage pages of your site.
If you cover sewer repairs and drain jetting as a drainage, your customers are searching for those exact words on Google before they call anyone. Drainages who match those phrases on their Google listing pick up the calls before the competitors do.
Why Drainages Lose Calls Around Here
For drainages working Reading, the picture looks like this. Most drainages in Reading are losing work to a handful of competitors with better-ranked Google listings. Word of mouth still works, but it's slower than it used to be. The fastest-growing local businesses are the ones combining word of mouth with showing up on Google. Owners who rely on referrals alone are going backwards.
Real Clients We Already Run
Drainages in Reading get the same diagnosis from us when they ask why their phone has slowed down.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
Local SEO at its core is three things: a Google Business Profile that gets updated weekly, a website that loads fast and has the right keywords on it, and citations across the directories Google trusts. We do all three properly and continuously.
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
The automation only asks customers we know are happy (most clients filter by job type before we send the trigger). If a customer was unhappy, we route them to a private feedback form instead so the public listing only collects positives.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
Same price for every client. £199 setup, £199 a month. We do not haggle, we do not run promotions, and we do not have a 'special deal this week'. The price you see is what you pay.
What do you actually do every month?
We replace four jobs you would normally pay separately for: web designer (£2k-5k one-off), SEO agency (£500-1,500/month), review automation app (£40-100/month), and missed-call answering service (£50-150/month). All bundled into one price.
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.
