Rooflines in Derby: Plain-English Local SEO That Works
Being good at the work isn't enough in Derby anymore. You also need to show up when someone in Littleover or Chaddesden types your trade into their phone. That's the bit we do.

Derby: Why Google Decides Who Gets the Calls
Derby is a particular kind of market. Rolls-Royce and Toyota manufacturing, railway heritage, Derwent Valley Mills World Heritage Site. The housing is mostly victorian terraces, inter-war semis, post-war estates, and modern developments near the city centre. We see calls coming from Littleover, Chaddesden, and the surrounding DE postcodes. If you cover those areas and you are not in the top of Google for them, that is the leak.
Derby's rooflines typically pick up calls from Darley Abbey, Chaddesden, Normanton and the wider DE postcode area. The most common roofline jobs in Derby are upvc replacements and rotten fascias and soffits. The pattern of call volume in Derby tends to follow the local property mix and seasonal demand.
How Local SEO Actually Works for You
Rooflines in Derby get the same diagnosis from us when they ask why their phone has slowed down. The roofline listings ranking above them in Derby have more reviews, fresher photos, and weekly Google profile posts. We don't sell you a thing and run. We run the entire online side of your business: Google listing, website, reviews, the lot. You get a monthly report and a phone number to text if anything is broken.
Most rooflines in Derby we work with already have a website that is not ranking for roofline searches and a Google profile that is half-empty. We rebuild the roofline website on faster infrastructure and rebuild the roofline profile from scratch with proper categories, photos and weekly posts.
Most rooflines get the same kinds of calls: blocked or leaking gutters, rotten fascias and soffits, and cladding damage. Rooflines who show up first when somebody types those phrases into Google get the lion's share of the calls in their area.
What Most Local Owners Get Wrong
In Derby, the rooflines who keep their diary full are not the cheapest or the best. They are the ones whose Google listing turns up first when somebody searches for roofline services in Derby. We get your roofline listing into that group. Your competitors with worse work and fewer years of experience are getting more calls than you. It is not because they are better. It is because Google shows them first.
Real Clients We Already Run
In Derby, the rooflines who keep their diary full are not the cheapest or the best. They are the ones whose Google listing turns up first when somebody searches for roofline services in Derby. We get your roofline listing into that group. We do not have testimonials. We have card payments. Seven of them every month, all from real UK trades businesses you can find on Google. The mix is plumbers in three towns, heating engineers in two more, a paving firm in Staines, and a bathroom fitter in Blackpool.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
SEO done properly: we research the search terms your customers actually use (not the ones an SEO tool says you should target), optimise your site and Google profile for those terms, and check rankings every week so we can adjust if something stops working.
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?
All in: £199 setup (one-off, covers the website, yours to keep) and £199 a month for everything else. We do not do tiered pricing or upsells. That is the price.
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.
