Handymans: A Real Website That Loads Fast and Brings Calls
If you're a handyman who's good at the work but rubbish at the marketing, this is the page where you stop having to be both.
No agency overhead · no account managers · no upsells
Why It's Different for Handymans
Two things matter for handymans more than anything: how fast someone can see your phone number, and whether your reviews look better than the next listing's. Get those two right and the rest is fine-tuning.
If you are a handyman, you already know the bread and butter: door hanging and flat-pack assembly, with general repairs when the season turns. Homeowners who lack time or skills for odd jobs, landlords maintaining rental properties, which means handymans need to be findable when those exact searches happen.
What We Actually Do
For handymans specifically, the picture looks like this. Most handymans we speak to are losing work to two or three local competitors with better-ranked Google listings. 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 handymans, the version of this we run looks like weekly Google profile updates with photos from real handyman jobs, four blog posts a month written for the searches handymans customers actually use, and a monthly performance report you can read on a phone.
What Most Owners Get Wrong
For handymans reading this who already feel like they have tried everything, here is the bit nobody mentions. Most handyman marketing advice is generic and does not actually move the needle for handymans. The thing nobody tells you when you start a trade is that being good at the work is about a third of the battle. The other two thirds are getting found and not letting calls go to voicemail. We help with both.
The Clients We Already Run
When we sit down with handymans and look at why the calls have stopped, this is what we usually find. The handyman business has reviews, has skill, but is invisible on Google for the right local searches. The honest version: we have seven paying clients. That is why we can give every one of them a phone number and answer it. When we have seventy, we will still give you a phone number, but a different one.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
The SEO bit covers: keyword research, on-page optimisation, technical SEO (site speed, schema, sitemaps), Google Business Profile management, citation building, and monthly ranking reports. All of it is included, no add-ons.
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
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.
What It Costs
Here is the price. £199 for the website (one-off, yours to keep forever). £199 a month for the management. Less than £6.70 a day. Three-month minimum, then you can cancel any time you like.

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?
Specifically: build and host your website, run your Google Business Profile weekly, set up review automation, set up missed-call text-back, write four blog posts a month, send a monthly report. That is the full list.
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.
