What makes Streetly different

The Walsall local authority area grew by 3.6% between mid-2021 and mid-2024, to 294,626 people. New residents have no favourite plumber, café or hairdresser yet, so they search; a clear website is how a Streetly business gets onto that first list.

Larger detached homes (43.8% of households) mean bigger gardens, driveways and renovation projects. For landscapers, builders and home services, a portfolio of real jobs is the strongest sales page.

England rules for a business with a website

A website does not need a special licence, but the business behind it follows the usual rules. A few that come up often:

• When you sell online, you must tell the customer they can cancel their order up to 14 days after it is delivered, and they do not need to give a reason. GOV.UK: online and distance selling
• Under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024, whose rules on this came into force on 6 April 2025, you must not commission fake reviews or pretend to be a consumer leaving one, and if you publish consumer reviews you have to take appropriate steps to make sure they are genuine. GOV.UK: unfair commercial practices
