You hear about it first
A private note lands with you the same day, while the job is fresh and fixable.
“Course I’ll leave you a review.” Then the kids need picking up and it’s forgotten. We’ll remind them politely for a couple of weeks until they actually do it.
The best time to ask is the moment the job is finished and they’re pleased with you. Tap complete and the request goes. If they don’t get round to it, two gentle nudges follow — and stop the second they leave one.
“Thanks for having us out today. If you’ve got 30 seconds, a quick Google review really helps a small business like ours.”
If someone signals they weren’t happy, the flow routes them to a private message to you instead of straight out to a public review — so you get the chance to put it right first. Most complaints are fixable in a phone call.

Sort the problem and you can re-send the request. Recovered customers often leave the warmest reviews.
Nobody is blocked from reviewing you. Anyone can still go to Google directly — and that’s exactly how it should be.
We don’t filter anything, and you shouldn’t want us to. Gating reviews so only happy customers can post breaches Google’s policies and UK consumer protection rules, and it can get your profile penalised.
What we do is ask for feedback first. Unhappy customers are offered a private route to you as well as, not instead of, the public one. Everyone keeps the right to leave whatever review they like.
No, and we won’t set that up. Incentivised reviews breach Google’s terms and UK advertising rules. Asking properly, at the right moment, works better anyway.
Two by default, three and nine days after the first ask, and everything stops the moment they review or opt out. You can change the timing and the wording, or turn reminders off entirely.
Yes. Google is where most local buying decisions get made in the UK, so that’s the default, but you can point requests at Trustpilot, Facebook or a trade directory — or rotate between them.
They stay exactly where they are and we pull the best of them onto your website automatically.
They cost nothing, they never stop working, and they decide who gets rung first.
