More Work for mechanics: Without Spending More on Ads
Our entire client list is currently UK trades businesses. Plumbers, heating engineers, paving, bathroom fitters. We know how the work comes in and we know what the marketing looks like for it. No guessing.

Why It's Different for Mechanics
Marketing for mechanics is a different game from marketing for, say, a coffee shop or an estate agent. Customers are usually in a hurry, often a bit stressed, and almost always price-sensitive. Your website and Google listing have about three seconds to convince them you are the right call. Most mechanics fail at exactly that.
Most calls mechanics get are for engine diagnostics, brake repairs, or timing belt replacement. The work is governed by Institute of the Motor Industry (IMI), MOT tester accreditation (DVSA) and the typical mechanic customer is car owners needing mots, servicing, and repairs outside of dealer networks. Most mechanics we work with see those exact problems make up four out of five jobs.
What We Actually Do
We work with seven UK trades businesses, and the same diagnosis keeps coming up across our mechanics and other trades clients. The common thread is search visibility, not skill. It is a one-stop replacement for: a freelance web developer, an SEO agency, a review-collection tool, and a missed-call answering service. All four jobs done by one person, for less than what most agencies charge for half of one of them.
Specifically for mechanics, we monitor about 25 local search terms that bring buying intent for mechanic services. We update your Google profile weekly with fresh photos and posts, and we run automatic review requests after every mechanic job. The whole mechanic package costs £199/month.
What Most Owners Get Wrong
In our experience working with mechanics, this is the part most mechanic owners do not realise. Google decides who gets called before the customer even sees a price or a review. You can spot a business that has not done the Google work because the owner is always 'a bit slow this month'. The trades with sorted listings are not slow, ever. They might be picky about which jobs they take, but slow is not a thing.
The Clients We Already Run
We work with seven UK trades businesses, and the same diagnosis keeps coming up across our mechanics and other trades clients. The common thread is search visibility, not skill. Seven owners we know by name, currently paying. They are not brand ambassadors. They have not been asked to record video testimonials. They are running their businesses and we are running their online presence.
Next Step: A Free Audit
The free audit is the no-pressure way to see what we would actually do for you. We check your site, your reviews, your Google profile, and your nearest competitors. You decide what to do with the information.
The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
The SEO covers your Google Business Profile (run weekly with fresh posts and photos), your website (on-page optimisation for the queries that bring calls), and your citations (consistent across the 30+ directories Google checks). Three pillars, all maintained continuously.
Missed-Call Text-Back
Missed-call text-back is the highest-ROI thing in the whole package. When you cannot answer, the system texts the caller within ten seconds. We have seen owners save three or four jobs a week from this alone.
Review Automation
What you get over a year is the difference between 'has 12 reviews from 2023' and 'has 50 reviews, the most recent one yesterday'. Google ranks the second listing higher every time.

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?
Six things every month: Google profile updates, fresh website content, automated review requests, missed-call recovery, ranking checks, and a monthly report. No add-ons, no upsells, no surprise charges.
Do I need to do anything technical?
We handle every technical step. Website build, hosting, domain setup, DNS, Google Business Profile verification, schema markup, analytics. None of that is your job. You just answer the phone when calls come in.
What if I already have a website?
Easy. We migrate the existing site across and keep everything that is working. The domain stays yours. We just rebuild it on faster infrastructure and fix the things that are losing you calls.
How long until I see results?
We do not guarantee a number of leads or a ranking position because nobody can do that legitimately. We guarantee the work is done, the report is honest, and the system stays running. The results follow if you let it run for the three-month minimum.
Can I cancel?
Three-month minimum, then rolling. Cancel whenever, no fuss. The website stays yours, the domain stays yours, and we send you a clean handover so nothing breaks.
