SEO for damp proofing specialists, so the people nearby find you.
Local search is mostly groundwork. Google needs to understand what you do, where you do it, and that other people vouch for you. Your site also has to be fast enough to be worth ranking.
For damp proofing specialists
What it means in your trade.
Damp searches are written in the homeowner's words: black mould on bedroom ceiling, damp patch on wall, musty smell, rising damp specialist, damp survey for mortgage, woodworm treatment. The groundwork is a clear explanation page for each problem you deal with, a page for surveys and reports, the areas you cover in plain text, and sensible titles and descriptions that match how people describe their symptoms.

Your Google Business Profile is set up with damp and timber services, photos of real work and links to the matching pages. Reviews that mention an honest diagnosis are especially valuable.

Questions
The ones that come up.
How long before SEO does anything?
The technical work lands immediately; rankings move over weeks to months. Be wary of any promise of page one within a month.
Do you do SEO as a monthly retainer?
The groundwork is part of the rebuild. Ongoing care at £149 a month keeps it maintained. There is no separate SEO retainer.
Is it worth a page on old and listed buildings?
If you work on them, yes. Owners of old stone or solid-walled homes are often wary of chemical treatments and cement render, and search for specialists who understand breathable materials. A page explaining your approach, with photos from similar buildings, attracts those owners and shows the kind of judgement surveyors and conservation officers look for.
Will landlords and housing providers find the site useful?
It can make you easier to instruct. A page aimed at them should cover surveys that identify the cause, ventilation work, how findings are reported, and how you arrange access with tenants. A form that takes several addresses and tenant contact details helps agents book multiple properties. It supports the relationships you build.
What happens to my existing site and its search visibility?
Before we change anything, we check which pages currently bring in visits. Those are kept or redirected to their replacements so their value carries over. At launch the old addresses are redirected, forms are tested end to end, and we watch the site closely for a month. You own the site, the domain and the content throughout.
