Turning phone-only enquiries into a steady stream of online jobs

A one-man plumbing business was relying entirely on word of mouth and a lapsed directory listing. He needed something simple that made it obvious what he does, where he works and how to reach him — without a monthly agency retainer.

The challenge

  • No website at all, and no time to write pages of copy
  • Most customers search on a phone, often in an emergency
  • Needed to filter out jobs outside his coverage area

What we built

Three focused pages

Home, Services and Contact — enough to explain the work and build trust, with no filler to maintain.

Click-to-call on every screen

A sticky call button on mobile so an emergency caller never has to hunt for the number.

Quick quote form

Six short fields including postcode, so out-of-area jobs are spotted before he picks up the phone.

Local search setup

Service-and-town headings, a Google Business Profile tidy-up and correct business details across the site.

A closer look

Click any screen to open it full size — use the arrow keys to move between them.

I was worried it would be complicated and expensive. It was neither — I sent a few photos and it was live the following week.
