Sound Familiar?
These are the problems we hear from damp proofing specialists in Gloucester every single week. If any of these hit home, we can help.
Survey enquiries going to whoever ranks first
When a homeowner spots damp, they Google it straight away. The first specialist they find with good reviews gets the survey booking — and that's worth £500-£5,000+ in work.
Losing high-value jobs because you're hard to reach
A damp proofing job can be worth thousands. If a worried homeowner can't reach you immediately, they'll call the next specialist on Google within minutes.
Competitors with worse credentials ranking above you
You've got PCA qualifications and proper insurance, but the cowboy with a better Google listing is getting the calls. Online visibility beats expertise unless people can find you.
Homeowners can't tell you from the cowboys
Without visible credentials, guarantees, and reviews online, a qualified damp proofing specialist looks the same as someone with a YouTube education and a cheap injection kit.
