Not a sales team. I'm a software engineer. I build how trades get found, enquire, and get booked.
More about meThe problem
Whether you're a plumber, electrician, builder or roofer: not because the work is worse, but because nobody finds you, the website does not convert, or the enquiry dies waiting for a reply. That is where the jobs go.
What you get
One package, not three separate jobs. You get a clear quote on the review call before anything starts. After launch I stay available to keep it running and tweak it.
They stay. Then they enquire.
Most trade sites get a glance, then the visitor is back on Google ringing the next name. I build one that looks like you, not a template that could belong to anyone: your jobs, your van, your face, a clear way to get in touch. They stick around because it feels like a real local trade, then they enquire.
When they search plumber + your town, you are on the first screen.
People looking for a trade in your area type things like “plumber Manchester” or “electrician near me”. Search engine optimisation (SEO) is the work that puts your site in front of those searches, for the services and postcodes you want, instead of a competitor who happened to rank first.
Instant notifications, automatic replies, and review requests after jobs.
When someone enquires, it lands where you will actually see it, not buried in an inbox. They get a quick confirmation. After a job is done, they are asked for a Google review automatically. Those reviews build your reputation and help you rank, without you remembering to chase.
They find you, they enquire, you get a ping, they get a reply. After the job, they are asked for a Google review.
Swipe right to see each step.

A short confirmation so they know you have it, not a sales script.
05
Notification on your phone so you can ring back while they are still deciding.

Want a straight look at where jobs are leaking?
Book a short call. I'll look at your site, how people find you, and what happens after they enquire. Then a fixed quote if you want to go ahead.
Example sites
Built for how people actually book a plumber, electrician or roofer: phone first, the jobs you do, the area you cover.
Manchester plumber. Call first, write if you prefer. Leaks, blocked pipes and installs.
ViewFour electricians in south-east London. Faults, boards, extras, rewires and landlord tests.
ViewFour roofers in Charlotte. Shingles, chimneys, flat roofs and storm damage.
ViewHow we work
A fixed price, a few weeks to go live, then I stay available to keep it running. No mystery process and no surprise extras.
01
We look at your site and how jobs come in. If it is worth doing, you get one price. Nothing is charged until you say yes.
02
You send photos, the areas you cover, and how you like to take jobs. I do the rest. Most of it is ready within a few weeks.
03
One walkthrough together. If it works, it switches on. You are not left guessing whether it is actually running.
04
I am always around to keep it running and tweak it as needed. You are not handed a site and left on your own.
Straight answers
Cost, time, DIY tools, and agencies that overpromised. Fair. Here is how this is different.
You deal with me. One person, one price, nothing starts until you say yes. No account manager, no bait-and-switch add-ons.
You send photos, the towns you cover, and how you like to take jobs. I build the site, the Google work, and the follow-up.
A Wix page does not put you above the other vans, and it does not reply when you are on a job. That is where the work is lost.
You get a fixed quote on the call. £0 upfront for a limited time. No drip of extra fees after you have said yes.
About
I'm Francesco. I spent years in big firms building systems that had to stay up. I now put that into local trades: how you show up in search, what the website does when someone lands, and what happens after they enquire.
You already know the job on site. Online, the work usually goes to whoever ranks first or replies first, even when they're not the better trade. I started TradesAhead because a templated site with no follow-up does not close that gap.
After launch I stay available to keep it running and tweak it. Not handed over and left.
Questions
A short call. I'll look at how people find you, what the website does with them, and what happens after they enquire. Then a fixed quote if you want to go ahead. No commitment. No hard sell.
