Who is in business in Caerphilly
The Caerphilly local authority area had 5,070 local business units in 2026. The sectors below are more common here than across Wales, with what each one’s website should show:
- Trades such as electricians, plumbers and roofers (550 sites): a quote form that lands in their inbox and the services they offer and where.
- Hair and beauty salons and other personal services (185 sites): opening hours and the price list.
- Builders and renovation firms (185 sites): how a quote request works and photos of finished projects, room by room.
- Car dealers and motor trade businesses (220 sites): current stock with photos and directions and opening hours.
Among the most common trades: 100 domestic building firms, 25 dental practices and 120 hairdressing and beauty businesses. In every one of these sectors, the website that wins is the one that answers questions before the customer has to ask.

- 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
