Working Manchester as a surveyor
Working as a surveyor in Manchester you are competing for attention against 80-150 other businesses doing the same thing. Most of them have not put any effort into their Google profile. That is your opening.
In Manchester, the catchment for surveyors includes Northern Quarter, Withington, Chorlton, and the wider M area. Calls for party wall surveys and valuations make up the bulk of what comes through the door.
What We Do
Surveyors in Manchester are competing with 80-150 other listings for the same calls. Here is what separates the busy surveyors from the ones whose phones have gone quiet. Specifically: a real website hosted on Vercel (loads in under two seconds anywhere in the UK), a Google Business Profile run weekly with new posts and photos, automatic review request texts after every job, and a monthly report that shows ranking changes in plain English. That's the system.
For surveyors in Manchester, the search terms that matter are not "surveyor" on its own. The buying-intent searches are urgent variations like "homebuyer surveys" and "building surveys for older properties". We target those exact phrases on your Google profile and on the surveyor pages of your site.
If you cover homebuyer surveys and party wall surveys as a surveyor, your customers are searching for those exact words on Google before they call anyone. Surveyors who match those phrases on their Google listing pick up the calls before the competitors do.
Why Surveyors Lose Calls Around Here
In Manchester, the surveyors 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 surveyor services in Manchester. We get your surveyor listing into that group. Word of mouth still works, but it's slower than it used to be. The fastest-growing local businesses are the ones combining word of mouth with showing up on Google. Owners who rely on referrals alone are going backwards.
Real Clients We Already Run
When we look at surveyors in Manchester 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 surveyor keywords Manchester customers actually use. The trades on our list right now have a combined 700+ reviews on Google between them. That is the kind of business we work with: established, well-reviewed, but not yet visible enough on Google. We bridge that last gap.

The Three Things That Move the Needle
Local SEO and Google Business Profile
Local SEO at its core is three things: a Google Business Profile that gets updated weekly, a website that loads fast and has the right keywords on it, and citations across the directories Google trusts. We do all three properly and continuously.
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 send the request as a polite text the same day, with a single tap link to your Google profile. No app downloads, no signup, no friction. The customer is on the review page in two taps.
What It Costs
£199 setup. £199 a month. That covers the website, the Google profile, the reviews, the SEO, the missed-call texts, and a monthly report. Less than £6.70 a day.

Frequently Asked
What does it actually cost?
Two numbers, no surprises. £199 for the website itself (built and hosted by us, yours to keep). £199 a month after that for the management. Three months minimum.
What do you actually do every month?
We sort your Google Business Profile so it actually appears when locals search. We build you a website that loads fast on a phone. We get reviews coming in automatically after every job. We text customers back when you miss a call. And we send you a monthly report that shows what changed.
Do I need to do anything technical?
No. You do not need to do anything technical at any point. We handle the website, the Google profile, the SEO, the reviews, all of it. The only thing we ask for is information about your business and a few photos if you have them.
What if I already have a website?
Fine. We will migrate it over. The domain stays in your name. The content comes with it. The bits that work, we keep. The bits that do not, we replace.
How long until I see results?
Truthfully, we cannot put a number on it because every business is different. What we can tell you is what happened with our existing clients: most started seeing extra calls from Google within four to six weeks and meaningful ranking improvements by month three.
Can I cancel?
Three months is the minimum because that is how long it takes to do meaningful SEO work. After that you can leave whenever you want. Website yours, domain yours, no exit fees.
