Working Bristol as a heating-engineer
The heating-engineer customers in Bristol are split roughly in half between long-term residents who already have someone they trust and newer residents (or younger ones) who Google for everything. The newer half is who you want, and Google is the only way to reach them.
Bristol's heating-engineers typically pick up calls from Redland, Bedminster, Totterdown and the wider BS postcode area. The most common heating-engineer jobs in Bristol are central heating installation and boiler breakdowns. The pattern of call volume in Bristol tends to follow the local property mix and seasonal demand.
What We Do
Across the heating-engineers we have spoken to in Bristol, the same pattern keeps coming up. The heating-engineers ranking in the top three of Google Maps for Bristol get most of the calls. 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 heating-engineers in Bristol, the version of this we run looks like weekly Google profile updates with photos from real heating-engineer jobs, four blog posts a month written for the searches heating-engineers customers actually use, and a monthly performance report you can read on a phone.
If you are a heating-engineer, you already know the bread and butter: radiator issues and boiler breakdowns, with central heating installation when the season turns. Homeowners with ageing boilers, landlords needing annual gas safety certificates, which means heating-engineers need to be findable when those exact searches happen.
Why Heating Engineers Lose Calls Around Here
For heating-engineers working Bristol, the picture looks like this. Most heating-engineers in Bristol are losing work to a handful of competitors with better-ranked Google listings. The honest truth: most local businesses lose more work to bad Google visibility than to bad service. Your skill is fine. Your work is fine. Your prices are fine. Your problem is that Google can't find you.
Real Clients We Already Run
Heating Engineers in Bristol get the same diagnosis from us when they ask why their phone has slowed down. The heating-engineer listings ranking above them in Bristol have more reviews, fresher photos, and weekly Google profile posts. Right now we run online presence for seven UK businesses: plumbers in Pontyclun, Nottingham and Cheshunt, a heating engineer in Liverpool, another near Battle, a paving company in Staines, and a bathroom fitter in Blackpool. Real businesses, real card payments every month.
Next Step: A Free Audit
Honest framing: the audit is free because it costs us about 30 minutes of automated checks plus 10 minutes of a real human looking at the results. We do that because most owners don't trust marketing pitches anymore (rightly), and a real audit is the only way to start a useful conversation.
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
Plain version: phone rings, you cannot pick up, system texts the caller back within 10 seconds with a short reply in your tone of voice, customer texts back the issue, you reply when you are off the job. About a third of those texts become paid jobs.
Review Automation
We integrate the reviews automation with whatever system you use to track jobs. Could be a job sheet, could be Google Calendar, could be a quick text from you. The trigger is flexible. The reply text is the same.

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 repair pays for the month. Cancel anytime after the first three months.
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?
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.
