SEO for trades

SEO for trades that keeps you booked up

Plumber, roofer, sparky, chippy or driveway firm — when someone in your town needs your trade, our job is getting that enquiry to you. Organically, and exclusively: one firm per trade, per patch.

Think about how your last few customers found you. A recommendation, a repeat customer — and the rest searched. “Emergency plumber near me” at 9pm. “Driveway companies [your town]” while collecting quotes. “Electrician” typed into a phone in a powerless kitchen.

For every one of those searches there are three places you can appear: the map pack (the three businesses Google shows on the map — where most of the clicks go), the organic results underneath, and the directories renting space above you. Most trade businesses have a half-empty Google profile, a website that hasn't changed since it was built, and a Checkatrade bill to make up the difference.

Our job is simple: get your profile and your website winning those searches on their own, so enquiries come to you first — exclusively, with no per-lead fee attached. And because our founder prices trade jobs himself, we know exactly what each of those enquiries is worth to you.

What's in the playbook

Built around how people actually hire trades

Google Business Profile, done properly

Categories, services, photos, posts, Q&A and review responses — the profile work that decides who appears in the map pack.

Service & area pages

A page for every job type you do and every town you cover. That's how you appear for the searches that pay.

A review engine that runs itself

A simple system for getting the review ask in front of every happy customer, and a response to every review — good or bad.

Seasonal & emergency content

Storm damage, frozen pipes, gutter season, EV chargers — pages built before the rush, working when it hits.

Technical tidy-up

Speed, mobile, titles, sitemaps, tracking — the unglamorous fixes that stop Google quietly ignoring your site.

Tracking & plain-English reports

Calls, direction requests and enquiries — real numbers, monthly, explained like a human wrote them. Because one did.

Why trust us with it

Run by a tradesman, tested on his own firm

Our founder runs CMW Repairs, a roofing and building firm in Hampshire. Its website, its Google profile, its enquiries — all built with exactly the playbook on this page. Every tactic gets proven on our own business before it goes near a client's.

Roofing is our deepest specialism — roofers get their own page — but the system is the same for every trade: be findable, look credible, make enquiring easy.

Questions trades actually ask

Straight answers

What does “one firm per trade, per patch” mean?+
We won't take on your direct competitor. One plumber per area, one roofer per area, one driveway firm per area — first come, first served. Because we can't honestly work for two rivals chasing the same searches.
My trade's a bit niche — does this still work?+
Almost certainly. If homeowners search for it — locksmiths, gutter cleaning, plastering, resin drives, garden rooms — the playbook applies. The audit will give you a straight answer either way, free.
How long until I see results?+
Google Business Profile improvements often show within weeks; organic enquiries typically build over 2–3 months and compound from there. The honest timeline — no “page 1 by Friday” nonsense here.
What exactly do I get for £150 a month?+
Content improvements month by month, steady relevant links, full Google Business Profile management (photos, posts, review responses) and a plain-English monthly report: what we did, what happened, what's next.
Am I tied into a contract?+
No. The setup is one-off; growth is a rolling month you can cancel anytime. We earn your business every month.
