Sound Familiar?
These are the problems we hear from plasterers in Torquay every single week. If any of these hit home, we can help.
No before-and-after photos anywhere online
Homeowners want to see the transformation. A website with before-and-after shots of your plastering work builds confidence and gets people to call.
Big rendering jobs going to whoever looks most professional
External rendering is a big investment. Homeowners research thoroughly — and if your online presence is weaker than a competitor's, you won't even get asked to quote.
Skimming and rendering jobs going to your competitor
When someone needs a room re-plastered, they search online and call the first plasterer they find. If that's not you, those jobs are going straight to someone else every single week.
Invisible on Google Maps
Google shows three plasterers on the map when someone searches locally. If your listing is incomplete or has barely any reviews, you're not one of them.
