01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

David Stevens Architecture shows a very low health score on Google Business Listing, indicating substantial gaps in essential details. The listing already has a title, phone number, full address and a main image, but missing elements constrain visibility and trust. The two strongest findings are the confirmed contact details and complete address, and the absence of a website link and an up-to-date status.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Open statusYour listing shows the business as trading, so customers see accurate availability and Google treats the listing as live.
  • ✓
    NameYour business name is showing on the listing, so a customer searching for you by name finds you, and everything else on the listing hangs off it.
  • ✓
    PhoneYour listing carries a phone number, so the call button is live for anyone who finds you on a phone.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    ClaimedYour listing is not claimed, which means anyone can suggest an edit to it and you have no way to reply to a review or correct what is shown.
  • 2
    WebsiteYour listing has no website link, so a customer who wants to check your prices or your work before ringing has nowhere to go from Google.
  • 3
    Description lengthThere is no real description on your listing, so when someone finds you on Google there is nothing in your own words telling them what you do.

Your reviews

David Stevens Architecture shows solid Google review health with a 4.5/10 health score, indicating room for improvement in review volume and engagement. The business has a high star rating in the top 10% and is beginning to collect more reviews, but there is no review response yet. Key opportunities include boosting rating confidence, starting to respond to reviews, and encouraging more feedback to grow review counts.

Strengths

  • ✓
    Star ratingYour rating is among the highest in this market and it does its own selling - a customer sees it before they read anything else.

Top three opportunities

  • 1
    Review confidenceRating and review volume together sit well behind this market, which means a customer comparing you has both halves of the picture reading thin.
  • 2
    Response rateNone of your reviews have a reply, which means a customer reading them sees your happiest and your angriest customers with nothing from you in between.
  • 3
    Review countYour review count sits well below what buyers here are used to seeing, which means a customer comparing options side by side reads you as the less proven choice.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

David Stevens Architecture has no recorded opening hours, so temporal alignment cannot be measured against local demand. As a result there are no confirmed periods of strong alignment with peak customer searches. The absence of hours also means likely missed opportunities during city-level peak demand windows and potential inefficiencies if any unrecorded hours fall in low-demand times. Adding hours will enable clearer advice.
