Who is Get Work? The Lancashire Google Ads platform for trades
Get Work is a Google Partner agency based in Lytham St Annes, Lancashire, that packages Google Ads, a custom landing page and a lead management platform into one managed service for tradespeople. It covers an unusually long list of trades. This profile explains how the model works and where its strengths and gaps lie.
The model in plain terms
Rather than running ads to your existing website, Get Work builds a dedicated landing page for each business and sends Google Ads traffic to it. Enquiries arrive as text notifications and land in a lead management and job booking platform, where you can also see spend against job value on a dashboard.
The agency's argument is that its landing pages convert far better than a typical home improvement website, and that the leads are exclusive to you rather than shared. Both claims are plausible, and both are worth testing against your own numbers once you are live.
Trades covered
Get Work's list is one of the broadest among UK trades specialists. It names roofing, building, landscaping, driveways, plastering and rendering, electrical, decorating, joinery, plumbing and heating, loft conversions, kitchen and bathroom fitting, tree surgery and fencing.
Breadth has a cost. A landing page template that works for a roofer will not automatically suit a decorator, whose customers search and buy differently. Ask to see a live page for your own trade rather than the roofing examples that tend to lead the conversation.
Where Get Work is based and who it works with
The business is in Lytham St Annes on the Lancashire coast, though its service is delivered online and the trades it serves are not limited to the North West. It describes itself as a Google Partner and says it works with trade associations, which is a useful signal of standing within the industry.
No founder is named on the site and no founding year is given, so this is a firm you assess on its product and its results rather than its backstory.
What proof is published
The published case study is a roofing company, with first-month revenue and return-on-investment figures. First-month results are the easiest to show for Google Ads because the channel starts quickly, so treat them as a sign the system works rather than a guide to a typical year.
What you want to see alongside that is retention. How long does an average client stay, and what does cost per lead look like in month six rather than month one? Those are fair questions for any Google Ads agency and our ranking of the best Google Ads agencies for trades explains why they matter.
Pricing
Pricing is not shown on the homepage; the agency keeps it on a separate pricing page. Before any call, establish three things: the management fee, whether it is fixed or tied to ad spend, and who owns the Google Ads account and the landing page if you leave.
That last point matters more with Get Work than with a conventional agency, because the landing page and the platform are the product. If you cancel, your website is untouched but the page that was generating your leads may disappear with the account. Our explainer on fixed fees versus a percentage of ad spend sets out how to compare the fee structure once you have it.
Who it suits and who it does not
Get Work makes most sense for a tradesperson who wants Google Ads leads without learning the platform, is comfortable paying for traffic rather than building organic visibility, and values a dashboard that shows spend against booked job value.
It is a weaker fit for anyone whose priority is a long-term asset. A landing page on someone else's platform does not build your own domain's authority, and if you stop paying, the leads stop too. Trades in that position should look at agencies that build search visibility on the business's own site first.
