What is changing for trade businesses in Hampshire?
Hampshire County Council has announced a plan for around 17,000 community electric vehicle chargers, with a contract running from 2026 to 2041 and £6.662 million of Department for Transport funding that unlocks private investment, according to the council’s announcement (opens in a new tab) . The council says a third of Hampshire residents have no off-street parking, rising to 39% in Basingstoke, citing RAC data.
Hampshire has more plumbing, heating and electrical firms than Surrey or West Sussex, 3,375 against 2,450 and 1,595, so a customer here has a long list of names to choose between (figures from the Office for National Statistics UK Business Counts 2025 (opens in a new tab) ).
In our view, a page on your website for each job you want more of, such as chargers, boilers or heat pumps, helps a customer searching for it find you.
How many businesses do you take in each Hampshire town?
We take one business per trade in each town. A plumbing or heating business and an electrician in the same town can both work with us, because plumbing and heating count as one trade and electrical work as the other.
That gives us the time to get to know you and your business, and to treat your success as ours. We would rather work closely with a few strong, growing businesses than process every one that asks.
If we already work with a business in your trade where you are, we will tell you, and you can join the waiting list. A place opens on the day a client’s service ends, and the next person on the list is offered it first.

How many Hampshire areas can a trade business list on Google?
Google lets a business list up to 20 service areas and recommends keeping the whole area within about 2 hours’ driving time of where you are based, according to Google’s guidance (opens in a new tab) . Hampshire has 13 council areas, so a Hampshire business can name every council area it works in and still have room for its main towns.
A heating engineer in Basingstoke who also works in Tadley and Whitchurch can name all three. If you work from home, Google asks you to hide your address once the listing is verified. Our Google Business Profile guide covers the rest of a complete listing.
Which approved trader scheme can a Hampshire trade business join?
Buy With Confidence is the approved trader scheme administered by Hampshire Trading Standards on behalf of several local authorities in the South East, as West Sussex County Council explains (opens in a new tab) . Applicants pay a one-off application fee and an annual membership fee that varies with the size of the business, and apply online at buywithconfidence.gov.uk (opens in a new tab) .
Each applicant has their complaints history reviewed, receives a visit from Trading Standards and provides customer references, according to Havering Council’s description of the scheme (opens in a new tab) . In our view, a listing is a proof point worth showing once you hold it, and whether the cost is worth it is your decision.
