01Google listingMarketbase business report

Your Google listing

Monk Architecture shows a very low overall health for its Google Business Listing, with room for meaningful improvements. The listing already provides a phone number, full address and a main image, but lacks a website link, claimed status, open status, a descriptive description and adequate photos which limits visibility and trust among local clients.

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

Monk Architecture shows below-average health on Google reviews with a 4.1/10. Yet it has a strong star rating in the top 10% and is starting to gather more reviews. The main takeaway is that customer satisfaction appears solid, but engagement with reviews is lacking and needs consistency.

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.

Where you show up on the map

Monk Architecture shows a below-average health score of 3.1 out of 10 for Google Maps, indicating limited visibility. The strongest signals are top rankings for architecture keywords in Addington and Riccarton, with positions 3 and 4 respectively. Opportunities lie in broadening aggregate maps visibility and consolidating the suburb presence to move toward the local midpoint.

Strengths

Top two opportunities

  • 1
    Maps visibility across the city groupYou turn up across fewer of the surrounding suburbs than half the businesses here, so someone two suburbs over searching for your service is shown your competitors and never sees your name.
  • 2
    Maps visibility in your own suburbYou show up in local Maps searches less often than half your suburb, so on a search from nearby you sit below businesses a customer would otherwise treat as equal.

08Opening hoursMarketbase business report

Your hours against demand

Monk Architecture has no published opening hours, so alignment with Christchurch demand cannot be measured. Because hours are missing, no hours can be identified as open during peak demand or closed during high-demand windows. Adding clear, customer-oriented hours will allow identification of strong alignment, highlight missed high-demand slots, and reduce inefficiency from unknown availability.
