The people behind it
Meet Lindsay
Lindsay Garner is a Gawler-based sole trader. His promise is simple: no job too big or too small, and every quote is free.
General repairs and maintenance, painting and wall repairs, gutter cleaning and pressure washing, window tinting, doors, locks and flyscreens, and overgrown yards cleaned up and carted off.
No website at all.
Just a Facebook page to send people to.
The problem
A busy handyman with nowhere to send people but Facebook.
Every home has the list: the door that sticks, the flyscreen with a tear in it, the hole in the plaster, the gutters nobody wants to climb up to. SA Elite Handyman is Lindsay’s answer to it, with no job too big or too small and every quote free.
Before we started, the business had a Facebook page and no website of its own.
The solution
A brand first, then an SEO-first site built around how people look for a handyman.
We did more than the website. Our brand work gave the business its logo, a full brand board setting out its colours and type, and matching business cards, so everything a customer sees looks like the same business. Facebook was rebuilt around the new logo, replacing AI-generated imagery.
The website followed, built SEO-first around the way people look for a handyman. The quote form asks for a name and phone number and not much else, and takes up to six photos straight from a phone, so Lindsay can see the job before he calls back. Afterpay is available on jobs.
Getting found
There are pages for Gawler, the Barossa Valley, the northern suburbs and the Riverland, and the homepage lists the real suburbs he covers.

Clicks and impressions: the client’s own Google Search Console. Non-branded leaves out searches for the business name. Enquiries: forms plus calls and emails tapped from the website, from our client portal; calls and emails are counts only until tracking covers two full periods. Form % only where the earlier period had 3 or more; rises and drops are both shown. CTR (click-through rate) is clicks ÷ impressions: how often people who see the listing on Google choose it. When impressions fall but clicks, forms or CTR rise, the impressions change is shown in grey, not red. Results vary by business and market.
The work
The work the website is there to win.
