Sound Familiar?
These are the problems we hear from damp proofing specialists in Leeds every single week. If any of these hit home, we can help.
Not showing up on Google Maps for local searches
Someone searches "damp proofing near me" and picks from the top results. If your listing isn't optimised, they never see your name — and the job goes to a competitor.
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.
No content explaining the difference between damp types
Homeowners Google their damp problem before calling anyone. If your website explains rising damp vs condensation vs penetrating damp, you become the expert they trust to fix it.
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.
