Working Telford as a surveyor
Ironbridge Gorge (birthplace of the Industrial Revolution), New Town, The Wrekin. For surveyors that means a steady flow of work, but also a steady flow of competition. Shropshire climate; moderate rainfall, prone to frost in the Severn Gorge, sheltered inland position. The trades that are visible on Google get the lion's share of the local market.
Telford customers searching for a surveyor usually live in Dawley, Ketley, Madeley or one of the satellite areas like Wellington or Shifnal. The local property mix in Telford drives a steady demand for building surveys for older properties and homebuyer surveys from surveyors.
What We Do
Surveyors in Telford get the same diagnosis from us when they ask why their phone has slowed down. The surveyor listings ranking above them in Telford have more reviews, fresher photos, and weekly Google profile posts. 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 Telford, the version of this we run looks like weekly Google profile updates with photos from real surveyor jobs, four blog posts a month written for the searches surveyors customers actually use, and a monthly performance report you can read on a phone.
If you are a surveyor, you already know the bread and butter: damp and structural surveys and homebuyer surveys, with valuations when the season turns. Homebuyers needing pre-purchase surveys, homeowners with structural concerns, which means surveyors need to be findable when those exact searches happen.
Why Surveyors Lose Calls Around Here
For surveyors working Telford, the picture looks like this. Most surveyors in Telford are losing work to a handful of competitors with better-ranked Google listings. Here's the unflattering truth: if your business name plus your town does not return your Google listing on the first page, the customers searching for you right now have never heard of you and never will. That is what we fix.
Real Clients We Already Run
Across the surveyors we have spoken to in Telford, the same pattern keeps coming up. The surveyors ranking in the top three of Google Maps for Telford get most of the calls. Honest comparison: most marketing agencies show you a wall of logos. We have a list of seven names you can verify on Google Maps. Pinnacle Plumbers, Tami Plumbing, Discount Heating NW, Optimum HVAC, M&R Property and Paving, Fylde Bathrooms, Alan's Plumbing. Look them up. They are real.

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 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.

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?
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.
