The problem
All enquiry volume came from paid search at an average cost per lead of £34, which made low-ticket callout jobs barely profitable. The website had one generic services page, no coverage-area pages, and a contact form that required eight fields before submission — a poor fit for someone standing over a burst pipe. Mobile users, who made up 84% of emergency traffic, had to scroll past a slider before reaching a phone number. Google Business Profile listings were unverified and inconsistently named, so map-pack visibility was negligible across most of the coverage area.
What we built
We rebuilt the site with a sticky tap-to-call bar on mobile, a three-field emergency form, and a WhatsApp button pinned to every page. A programmatic location layer generated genuinely differentiated coverage pages — each with local response times, service areas, engineer availability and local review snippets — instead of duplicated boilerplate. We consolidated and verified the Google Business Profile listings, added LocalBusiness and FAQ schema, and rewrote the service pages around the specific emergencies people search for: burst pipes, boiler breakdowns, blocked drains, leaking radiators. Page weight dropped to under 200 KB.
“We stopped renting our leads from Google Ads. The organic pages now bring in more work than the ad budget ever did.”
