Working Birmingham as a handyman
If you are a handyman in Birmingham and you are wondering why the new business in Jewellery Quarter is suddenly busier than you, the answer is almost certainly that they sorted their Google Business Profile and you have not. We sort yours.
Handymans working Birmingham have a slightly different mix than handymans elsewhere because of the neighbourhoods involved. Most Birmingham handyman calls come from Kings Heath, Edgbaston, Digbeth and the corridor toward Sutton Coldfield.
What We Do
Here is what we tell handymans working Birmingham and the surrounding areas when they ask the obvious question. The Google ranking for handyman searches in Birmingham is decided by the things most handymans never touch. Honest list of what is included so you can compare: website (built and hosted), Google Business Profile (set up and run weekly), review automation, SEO work, missed-call text-back, monthly report. Nothing hidden.
Specifically for handymans in Birmingham, we monitor about 25 local search terms that bring buying intent for handyman services. We update your Google profile weekly with fresh photos and posts, and we run automatic review requests after every handyman job. The whole handyman package costs £199/month.
Most calls handymans get are for general repairs, shelving and fixtures, or minor plumbing and electrics. The work is governed by TrustMark, Checkatrade and the typical handyman customer is homeowners who lack time or skills for odd jobs, landlords maintaining rental properties. Most handymans we work with see those exact problems make up four out of five jobs.
Why Handymans Lose Calls Around Here
For handymans covering Birmingham, the part of this most owners miss is the local search angle. The handyman customers in Birmingham Google your trade plus a neighbourhood name, and only the top three results get the call. Most owners we speak to have tried something. A website built by a friend. A Yell listing. A few hundred quid on Facebook ads. None of it worked because none of it fixed the actual problem: Google doesn't know they exist.
Real Clients We Already Run
When we look at handymans in Birmingham 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 handyman keywords Birmingham customers actually use. Real client names you can verify on Google: Pinnacle Plumbers in Pontyclun, Tami Plumbing in Nottingham, Discount Heating NW in Liverpool, Optimum HVAC near Battle, M&R Property and Paving in Staines, Fylde Bathrooms in Blackpool, Alan's Plumbing in Cheshunt. All paying every month.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
We do the local SEO work weekly: keyword tracking for the searches that actually convert, Google Business Profile updates with fresh photos and posts, schema markup on every page of your site, and a monthly ranking report so you can see exactly what moved.
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
Most owners undercount how much reviews matter for ranking. Every additional review is a small boost to your local pack position, especially when the review mentions the service or area. The automation makes that compound silently in the background.
What It Costs
We are not the cheapest and we are definitely not the most expensive. £199 for the site, £199 a month for the rest. Less than £6.70 a day. The maths usually works out as: One job from Google pays for the month.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
It is £199 a month plus a one-off £199 setup. Less than £6.70 a day. One job from Google pays for the month. Cancel anytime after the first three months.
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.
