Sound Familiar?
These are the problems we hear from chimney sweeps in Newmarket every single week. If any of these hit home, we can help.
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 way for customers to book online
Modern customers expect to check availability and book in seconds. If your only contact method is a phone call, you're losing bookings to sweeps who make it easier.
Only known in a small area through word of mouth
Your regulars rebook every year, but you could be covering twice the area. A strong Google Maps listing means people across your whole region find you when they search.
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.
