Sound Familiar?
These are the problems we hear from chimney sweeps in Chippenham every single week. If any of these hit home, we can help.
Not showing up on Google Maps in your area
Someone searches "chimney sweep near me" and picks from the top results. If your listing isn't optimised, you're invisible to the customers searching right now.
Customers can't tell you apart from unqualified sweeps
Without visible certifications and reviews online, homeowners can't distinguish a HETAS-registered professional from someone who bought a brush and made a Facebook page.
No website to build trust and show credentials
Homeowners want to check you're legitimate before letting you into their home. Without a professional website showing your certifications, insurance, and reviews, they'll pick someone else.
HETAS certified but nobody online knows it
Your certification matters — it's what separates you from cowboys. But if it's not front and centre on your website and Google listing, customers can't see the difference.
