  1. Build local landing pages for the core keyword basket to lift organic and local-pack appearance.
  2. Publish structured, citable content and entity schema so AI engines surface the business for core local queries.
  3. Introduce the people who do the work, on an about or team page and the credentials that matter in this sector (FMB, TrustMark, NHBC), and refresh stale content.
