Sound Familiar?
These are the problems we hear from chimney sweeps in Sevenoaks 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.
Peak season calls going to whoever shows up first
Autumn and winter are when the phone should be ringing non-stop. But if you're not showing up on Google, those calls are going to the sweep who is — every single day.
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.
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.
