Reviews
More Reviews, the Right Way
Roofers with 50 or more Google reviews get around 3.5 times the enquiries of those with fewer than 10 (Whito, 2026). We help you ask every customer, every time. We never buy, write or filter reviews — fake and selectively gathered reviews break Google’s rules and UK consumer law.

Free AI SEO auditHow do I optimise my Google Business Profile as a roofer?
Set “Roofing contractor” as your primary category, add relevant secondary categories, list every roofing service with a short description, and set your real service areas. Then upload job photos, post weekly, answer questions and ask every customer for a review. Keep your details identical everywhere online.
What is the best Google Business Profile category for roofers?
“Roofing contractor” is the best primary category for most UK roofers. Add secondary categories only for work you actually do, such as gutter cleaning service or skylight contractor. The wrong primary category is one of the most common reasons roofers don’t appear for “roofer near me”.
How do I get more Google reviews for my roofing business?
Ask every customer as soon as the job is finished, while they’re pleased with the work. Send a direct review link by text or WhatsApp, and follow up once. Reply to every review. Never buy reviews or ask only happy customers — both break Google’s rules and UK law.
Why was my roofing Google Business Profile suspended?
Common causes are a virtual office or home address shown as a shopfront, keywords stuffed into the business name, duplicate profiles, or details that don’t match your real business. Suspensions can usually be appealed with proof of your business. We can review your profile and help prepare the appeal.
Should a roofer hide their address on Google Business Profile?
Yes, if customers don’t visit you. Most roofers work at customers’ homes, so Google expects a service-area business with the address hidden and up to 20 service areas listed. Showing a home address or virtual office as a visible location risks suspension.
How often should roofers post on Google Business Profile?
Once a week is a good rhythm. Post finished jobs with photos, seasonal advice and storm-season reminders. Posts keep your profile active, give homeowners a reason to call you, and show Google you’re a working business. We write and publish them for you on every monthly plan.
How much does Google Business Profile optimisation cost?
Our Google Business Profile Set-up & Fix is £395 as a one-off, covering the full profile build, categories, services, photos, Q&A and a review link. It’s free with any monthly plan. Ongoing management on its own is £295 a month, and it’s included in every plan from £645.
Do I need a website if I have a Google Business Profile?
Not to start, but a website helps you rank higher. Google uses your website to understand your services and areas, and homeowners check it before calling about bigger jobs like re-roofs. A profile alone can win repairs; a website helps win the £5,000–£12,000 jobs.
