The Problem

How Gas Engineers Are Currently Overpaying for Enquiries

If you're relying on Ads, lead generators, or a yellow-pages website, you're almost certainly paying more than you need to — and sharing the same leads with competitors.

Google Ads at £5–£9 Per Click

Most gas engineer keywords — "boiler repair near me", "gas safety certificate", "emergency gas engineer" — cost £5 to £9 per click. A modest £1,500/month budget burns fast, especially during the winter rush.

Shared Leads From Checkatrade

Checkatrade, Trustatrader and Rated People charge monthly fees plus per-lead costs — and every lead is shared with 3–5 other gas engineers in your area. You're racing competitors to call first.

Feast or Famine Diary

Winter is packed with breakdowns. Summer is scraping by on landlord certs and small jobs. Most gas engineers don't have a pipeline — they just have whoever calls that week.

Big Companies Own the Map Pack

British Gas, Homeserve and large regional firms dominate the Map Pack — pushing independent Gas Safe engineers off the first screen when someone searches "gas engineer near me".

Generic Websites You Don't Own

Many gas engineers pay monthly for templated websites they don't actually own. Leave the provider and you lose the site, the rankings, the content — everything.

Generic SEO That Misses the Trade

Most agencies don't know the difference between a CP12 and a boiler service, or why a landlord's gas safety certificate is a different keyword to a homeowner's annual service. Traffic comes — but the wrong kind.

SEO Done Properly for Gas Engineers Is the Long-Term Fix

Ranking for "gas engineer [your town]", "boiler repair [your town]" and "landlord gas safety certificate" delivers exclusive, high-intent enquiries. Homeowners with broken boilers. Landlords renewing certificates. The cost per job drops every month — and the traffic keeps coming, summer and winter.

"I was spending over £1,200 a month on Checkatrade and racing three other gas engineers in my area to call every lead first. Within five months of proper SEO, I was ranking for 'boiler repair [my town]' and 'landlord gas safety certificate [my town]' — and the enquiries came in direct. I dropped Checkatrade last year and haven't looked back. My summer diary is now fuller than it's ever been."

DM

Gas Safe Engineer — West Midlands

"We tried a general SEO agency before and they wrote pages about 'heating solutions' that brought in traffic but no actual jobs. The difference here was they understood our trade — separate pages for boiler services, CP12s, emergency call-outs and installations, all written for the people who actually book us. We've now got two lettings agencies on recurring contracts that found us through Google."

FAQs

SEO for Gas Engineers — Common Questions

How much does SEO for a gas engineer cost in the UK?
Our gas engineer SEO packages start at £650 for a 5-page setup with audit and keyword research. A full 10-page package with Google Business Profile and local SEO is £1,450. Custom projects with ongoing content and link building start from £2,950. Every project is quoted upfront after a free strategy call — no surprises, no hidden fees.
How long before gas engineer SEO starts bringing in jobs?
Most Gas Safe engineers see meaningful movement in rankings and enquiries within 3–6 months. Local keywords in smaller towns can rank faster, while competitive boiler repair terms in cities like London, Manchester or Birmingham typically take 6–12 months to reach page one. The traffic compounds — what you earn in month six keeps coming without extra spend.
Is SEO better than Checkatrade or Google Ads for gas engineers?
For long-term profitability, yes. Google Ads for gas engineers typically cost £5–£9 per click, Checkatrade charges monthly fees plus per-lead costs, and bought leads are shared with several competitors in your area. SEO builds exclusive traffic you own — the cost per job drops significantly once you rank, and the traffic continues without ongoing ad spend.
Do you work with more than one gas engineer in the same town?
No. We work with one Gas Safe engineer per town or service area to avoid conflicts of interest. If we're already working with a gas engineer in your exact area, we'll tell you honestly during the strategy call. This protects your rankings and our integrity.
Do you understand Gas Safe requirements and landlord certificates?
Yes. We understand the difference between a CP12, a landlord gas safety certificate, a boiler service, a gas safety inspection and a full installation — and we write content that targets the right keywords for each service, in a way that builds trust with both homeowners and landlords.
Will I own the work you do, or does it belong to you?
Everything — your website, your content, your Google Business Profile, your Search Console and Analytics access — belongs to you from day one. If you ever stop working with us, you walk away with every asset. We believe SEO should build something you own, not something you rent.
Can you help with Google Business Profile and the Map Pack?
Yes — this is one of the most valuable parts of the work. When someone in your town searches "gas engineer near me" or "boiler repair near me", three businesses appear on the map. We optimise your Google Business Profile (Gas Safe categories, services, service areas, photos, posts and reviews strategy) so you're one of those three — ahead of British Gas and Homeserve.
Can you help me get more landlord and lettings agency work?
Yes — this is one of our specialities. Landlord gas safety certificates, CP12 renewals and annual servicing contracts are the most valuable recurring work a gas engineer can get. We build specific content and landing pages targeting landlords and lettings agents in your area, so you're attracting diary-filling recurring work — not just one-off breakdowns.
Do I need a new website to get results from SEO?
Not necessarily. If your existing site is structurally sound and mobile-friendly, we can optimise what you have. If it's outdated, slow or built by a provider you don't own, we'll recommend a rebuild — but only if it will materially improve your rankings and enquiries.
Do you lock clients into long contracts?
Our foundation and growth packages are one-off projects with included support periods — not contracts. Ongoing SEO work is month-to-month. We earn your continued business by delivering results, not by locking you in.
