Essential profile sections

Your profile should cover the basics so a homeowner can decide quickly. Include a clear business name, town or service area, main services offered, contact options, and a short description of what you actually do on site.

Keep sections distinct so visitors scan instead of read every line.

  • Name and trading name as used on invoices
  • Service area - list towns or postcodes you cover
  • Core services - e.g. flat-pack assembly, leak repairs, electrical fixes (small jobs), general maintenance
  • Contact methods - phone, email, contact form and hours
  • Languages spoken

Photos and project examples

Photos tell more than claims. Use clear before-and-after shots, photos of finished work, and images of tools and vans so people know you arrive prepared. Avoid low-resolution or heavily edited images.

Aim for practical clarity: show the problem, the process or tools, and the result.

  • Before and after images of at least three different repair types
  • Close-ups that show workmanship and materials
  • A photo of your team or yourself with safety equipment
  • A photo that shows a clean worksite or tidying up after the job

Services and how to present them

List services as individual items rather than long paragraphs. For each service include a short one-line scope and typical job examples. That helps customers match their need and improves search on the marketplace.

If a job needs an in-person inspection, say so and offer a quote or site visit option.

  • Service name - one-line scope - typical examples
  • Flag emergency or same-day availability if applicable
  • Note jobs you do not accept (major electrical rewires, gas work, structural alterations)

Booking, quotes and contact flow

Make it clear how to book or request a quote. If you offer online booking, show available categories and typical durations. If you prefer quote requests, provide a short form asking for address, problem description and photos.

Set expectations about response times and whether you charge for call-outs or diagnostics.

  • Clear button text for booking or request a quote
  • Short quote form fields: location, short description, photos, preferred times
  • Estimated response time in hours

Service area, hours and languages

List the towns or postal codes you cover and the hours you work. For repair and handyman services, response area and travel time matter as much as price.

Include languages you speak so customers booking in multilingual areas know they can communicate clearly.

  • Primary town and nearby towns or radius
  • Typical working hours and emergency availability
  • Languages spoken on site

How customers find you on Websta and search

Profiles appear in the marketplace category and in local search results. Use clear service names and town names so your profile matches search queries. The Websta category path for this trade is /marketplace/repair.

Responding quickly to enquiries and keeping your service list accurate helps when customers filter by availability and service type.

  • Use exact service keywords people search for, e.g. "faucet repair", "door alignment", "shelf installation"
  • Keep location fields accurate for marketplace filters
  • Upload photos that match the services you list

What to write in the first hour

Prioritise clarity over detail. In the first hour set your visible name, service area, three main services with one-line scopes, one short paragraph about your approach, contact details and two good photos (one before/after or a clear finished job).

Add languages and hours, and a short note about how you handle quotes or emergency calls. That gives a complete, trustable page quickly and invites the first enquiries.

  • Set business name, town and service area
  • Write three service lines with short scopes
  • Add contact phone and choose contact form or booking option
  • Upload two clear photos and state languages spoken

Claiming pages that come from registers

Some profiles are created from public business registers and show registered trade and town. Those pages carry a notice that the person can claim or remove the page. If you find such a page for your business, claim it and then update the sections above to match your current services and photos.

If the profile is accurate and belongs to you, claiming it reduces confusion for customers and lets you control contact details and availability.

Frequently asked questions

How do I show the towns I cover on my profile?
List your primary town and add neighbouring towns or postcodes in the service area field. If you cover a radius, state the approximate kilometres and any travel fee rules.
What photos work best for repair jobs?
Use clear before-and-after photos, close-ups of the finished work, and a picture of your team or van. Avoid staged stock photos and ensure images show real results.
Should I offer online booking or only quote requests?
Choose what fits your workflow. Online booking works for standard short jobs; quote requests suit inspections or variable jobs. Make the chosen option obvious on the profile.
Can I edit a profile created from the public register?
Yes. Register-built pages include a claim notice. Claim the page to edit text, photos, service lists and contact details so the profile reflects your current business.
