Plastering & rendering · Bristol

An old site that wasn’t bringing in work, rebuilt on the same domain.

KD Plastering & Rendering had years of finished jobs and a strong Checkatrade record, but their website wasn’t turning searches into enquiries. We rebuilt it from scratch and relaunched in September 2026.

What these numbers don’t show yet.

  • KD’s name is still the biggest source of clicks: 60 of the 105 clicks Google ties to a search.
  • Clicks on those trade searches are low so far, because most sit near the bottom of page one.
  • There’s no search data from before launch, so this isn’t a before-and-after comparison.
  • October is one good month. Winter will tell us more than autumn has.

Check it yourself.

KD’s own Google screenshots, taken on 5 November 2026.

A good reputation, living on someone else’s platform.

KD have plastered and rendered homes across Bristol since 2014, with a 9.8/10 Checkatrade score from 194 reviews (Checkatrade, September 2026). Most of their work came through paid directory profiles.

They had a website on their own domain, but it wasn’t bringing in enquiries. The job was to make the site do the work the directories were charging for.
