Why It's Different for Builders
Builders have a particular problem when it comes to getting found online. The work is local, the calls are urgent (new builds does not wait), and the competition is dense. The fix is not generic SEO. It is specifically getting you into the Google Map Pack for the searches your customers actually use.
Most builders get the same kinds of calls: loft conversions, extensions, and renovations. Builders who show up first when somebody types those phrases into Google get the lion's share of the calls in their area.
What We Actually Do
Among the builders 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 builder searches. We handle the entire online side of your business so you do not have to. That means a website rebuild if your current one is broken or slow, your Google profile sorted out and run weekly, automatic review requests going out after each job, missed-call recovery so dropped calls turn into texts, real SEO work every week, and a monthly performance report you can actually read on a phone.
Most builders we work with already have a website that is not ranking for builder searches and a Google profile that is half-empty. We rebuild the builder website on faster infrastructure and rebuild the builder profile from scratch with proper categories, photos and weekly posts.
What Most Owners Get Wrong
For builders reading this who already feel like they have tried everything, here is the bit nobody mentions. Most builder marketing advice is generic and does not actually move the needle for builders. 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.
The Clients We Already Run
For builders reading this who already feel like they have tried everything, here is the bit nobody mentions. Most builder marketing advice is generic and does not actually move the needle for builders. Honest signal-to-noise: we charge real money to seven real UK businesses. We do not have free trials, partner programmes, affiliate links, or fake testimonials. Everything we do is paid for by people running their own trades businesses.

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
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.
What It Costs
Right then, the money. £199 setup (covers your website, yours to keep), £199 a month for management. Less than £6.70 a day. One extension pays for over 12 years. Three months, then you decide.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
£199 once + £199/month. The website is yours to keep even if you cancel. The minimum is three months so we have time to actually move the needle.
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?
Nothing technical, no. We do all the work. You give us the basic details, we handle the rest. If something needs your input we will text or email and ask in plain English.
What if I already have a website?
Most of our current clients had a website before us. We brought theirs across without losing any URLs or domain authority. Yours would work the same way.
How long until I see results?
Different things move at different speeds. The missed-call system catches calls from day one. Google profile changes show in days. Search rankings take months. We are upfront about all of this from the start.
Can I cancel?
Three months, then it is month-to-month. Cancel by text. The website stays online (you keep the domain and the site), we just stop running the SEO and Google profile side of it.
