Nobody follows a plumber for fun — they follow so they remember you
Plumbing social media isn't about going viral. It's about being the name people already recognise when a pipe bursts or a bathroom needs doing. A consistently updated profile with real job photos and genuine reviews is what separates "established local firm" from "guy with a van".
Posting that consistently is a job in itself — which is exactly what we take off your hands.
What managed social media looks like for plumbers
Real work, properly presented
Finished bathrooms, tidy cylinder installs, before-and-after repairs — your day-to-day work is the content. We turn job photos into posts that demonstrate quality.
Reviews and credibility
Customer testimonials, qualifications and insurance highlighted regularly. Plumbing customers are cautious; visible reassurance is what converts followers into callers.
Emergency availability
Clear posts about call-out coverage, areas served and how to reach you — so when the emergency happens, your number is the one they already have.
Commercial visibility
If you chase contracts — letting agents, builders, facilities managers — LinkedIn presence and case-study content support that alongside the domestic channels.
Consistency is the whole game
A profile that posts weekly looks busy and trustworthy. One dormant since 2023 looks risky. We keep yours active so it works for you every day, not just when you remember it exists.
Close the loop
Social attention needs somewhere to land. If your website isn't converting, see web design for plumbers and plumbing contractors — together they cover discovery through to the booked job.

Content themes that work for plumbers
The posts that generate enquiries aren't clever marketing — they're proof of competence: finished bathrooms, tidy first-fix work, boiler and cylinder installs, honest before-and-afters. Mixed in: availability updates, service reminders (stopcock locations, winter prep), and review highlights that reinforce credibility. We build the calendar around proof, availability and trust rather than filler.
Bathroom and installation showcases
High-value installs deserve more than a quick photo dump. Carousel posts showing strip-out to finish, tagged locations and real client feedback turn each completed job into marketing that keeps working for months.
Building the commercial pipeline
Letting agents, property managers and builders check contractors on LinkedIn and Facebook before adding them to supplier lists. Consistent, professional presence — completed jobs, capacity, coverage areas — is what gets you on those lists. If commercial work is a target, we run that thread alongside the domestic content.
Measuring what matters
We report on enquiries and calls, not vanity metrics. You'll see which content is producing contact — and we adjust towards what demonstrably works for your area and your trade.
What's included each month
A content calendar built around your services and service area, regular posts across Facebook and Instagram, captions and local hashtags, review highlights from Google and trade platforms, profile upkeep, comment monitoring, and a monthly report focused on enquiries rather than vanity metrics.
How this converts to enquiries
Plumbing has two buying moments: the emergency ("who do I call right now") and the project ("who should quote my bathroom"). Consistent presence wins both — you're the name already familiar when the emergency hits, and the portfolio that's been accumulating credibility while the project is being planned. Every post ends at a contact route.
Questions plumbers ask us
Do I need to post myself? No — that's the entire point. Send job photos; we do the rest.
Will it work alongside Checkatrade? Yes — and your social proof flows between them. Reviews earned anywhere get featured everywhere.
Can you target letting agents? We can run a commercial content thread specifically for agents and property managers alongside the domestic posts.
What happens when you sign up
We start with a short call to understand the jobs you want more of, the areas you cover and the platforms your customers actually use. From there we build your first month's calendar, you approve it, and posting begins — typically within the first week. Your only ongoing job is sending photos as you take them.
Reporting that means something
Likes don't pay invoices. Our monthly report focuses on what matters: how many people saw your work locally, profile visits, and the enquiries that came through each channel. If a post type consistently pulls enquiries — bathroom before-and-afters, say — we shift the calendar toward more of it. The strategy follows the numbers, not a template.
