More local jobs for Blackwood trades.
Blackwood is the busy centre of the Sirhowy Valley, and the trades who do well here are the ones locals already know. Online is where new customers decide whether they know you too.
Northeave helps trade businesses in Blackwood and the Sirhowy Valley get more booked work: websites from £500, Google Business Profile and review requests, Facebook and Instagram ads targeted at local postcodes, and 24/7 call answering. We’re local to South Wales and meet clients face to face.
Getting found in Blackwood
Blackwood trades usually cover a patch rather than a town: Pontllanfraith, Oakdale, Cefn Fforest, Markham, Argoed and down towards Newbridge and Crumlin. Homeowners search by their own village, so your Google profile and website should name the places you actually work in.
The housing is a mix of valley terraces, large post-war estates and newer developments like those around Oakdale, so there's steady demand for roofing, damp and insulation work, driveways, fencing and landscaping, kitchens and bathrooms.
Online competition is lighter than in Cardiff or Newport. A properly set-up Google profile and a steady flow of genuine reviews can put you near the top of local results faster than you might expect.
