Google Profile Review

Unclaimed, anyone (even a competitor) can suggest edits, and nothing else works until it is verified. Check for duplicate listings too.

A mobile trade should be a service-area business so your home address stays hidden; a shop is a storefront. List only the towns you actually serve.

The setting with the largest effect on which searches you show up in. Set it to the one thing you most want to be called about.

Wrong hours send someone to a closed door. Confirm regular hours, set holiday hours, and reflect after-hours service honestly.

Check the count and the newest date. Current, real photos of your trucks, team, and finished work read as active and trustworthy.

Note the count and the date of the newest one. Steady recent reviews matter more than a big old pile.

Reply to every review, good and bad. The audience is the next reader, not the reviewer, so stay calm and specific.

Google removed Q&A in Nov 2025 and now writes its own answers from your site, profile, and reviews. Publish the answers you want it to use.

Fill the services section with plain-language descriptions. It helps you show up for specific searches and feeds those Google answers.

Click your own link on a phone: does it load fast and land somewhere useful? Add your booking or request form link too.

Almost no trades use profile posts. One every week or two, even a finished-job photo, keeps the listing looking alive.

Search your service in a private window to see what a customer sees, not your logged-in view.
