Sound Familiar?
These are the problems we hear from electricians in St Austell every single week. If any of these hit home, we can help.
Your website doesn't show you're a proper business
No photos of your work, no accreditations, no reviews visible. Homeowners want proof you're legitimate before they let you into their home to work on their electrics.
Brilliant sparky with barely any online reviews
Your customers are happy, but they're not leaving reviews. Meanwhile, the electrician with 70 five-star reviews gets every call — even though your work is just as good.
Customers calling someone else first
When someone needs a rewire or a new consumer unit, they Google it and call the first electrician they find. If your online presence is weak, that's never going to be you.
Good work but not enough reviews to prove it
You know your work is top notch, but a homeowner comparing two electricians will always pick the one with more five-star reviews. It's just how people make decisions now.
