From invisible to #1 in the map pack in 6 weeks.

First Call Home Services is a plumbing and heating company covering Nuneaton and Coventry. They had the skills and the reviews, but barely showed up on Google. Here is how we changed that.

The challenge

Great plumber, invisible on Google.

First Call did excellent work and had happy customers, but new enquiries leaned on word of mouth and the occasional paid lead. When someone searched "plumber Nuneaton" or "plumber Coventry", competitors with weaker reviews were showing up first in the Google map pack. That is the result that wins the call.

The website was slow, hard to read on a phone, and gave Google almost nothing to rank. There was no proper Google Business Profile strategy and no local citations tying the business together across the web.

What we did

The local SEO playbook, end to end.

  • Rebuilt the site fast and mobile-first, with dedicated pages for Nuneaton and Coventry and the services people actually search for.
  • Optimised and managed the Google Business Profile: categories, services, photos, posts, and review prompts.
  • Built consistent UK directory citations so Google trusts the name, address, and phone.
  • Targeted the local keywords that bring ready-to-book customers, not vanity traffic.
The result

Coventry ranked in 6 weeks. The phone has not stopped.

Within 6 weeks First Call hit the top of the local map pack for plumber Coventry, with Nuneaton following close behind. Both now sit at #1 for the searches that matter. The owner went from chasing work to choosing it. See their live page: Best plumbers in coventry.

"The phone is ringing with jobs. We can actually be selective now and take on the work that is right for us. That is a brilliant place to be as a business owner."
