What is changing for trade businesses in West Sussex?
West Sussex County Council has appointed Connected Kerb to install electric vehicle chargepoints, and says it will deliver thousands of chargepoints across the county within the next 10 years (opens in a new tab) , working with Adur and Worthing, Arun, Crawley, Horsham and Mid Sussex councils. Priority goes to residents without off-road parking.
West Sussex has the highest share of sole traders of our four areas: 20% of its registered plumbing, heating and electrical firms, against 17% in Surrey and Hampshire and 9% in London (figures from the Office for National Statistics UK Business Counts 2025 (opens in a new tab) ).
In our view, owner-operators here gain most from a website and Google listing that say which towns they cover.
How many businesses do you take in each West Sussex 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 West Sussex 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) . West Sussex has 7 boroughs and districts, so a West Sussex business can name every council area it works in and still have 13 places left for individual towns.
An electrician in Horsham who also works in Billingshurst and Pulborough 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 West Sussex trade business join?
Buy With Confidence is open to any business with premises within the area covered by West Sussex County Council, and Hampshire Trading Standards administers it on behalf of West Sussex, according to the council’s how-to-join page (opens in a new tab) .
There is a one-off application fee and an annual fee that varies with business size, and the applicant and anyone who works in customers’ homes pay for a basic Disclosure and Barring Service check. Members get a public profile, the right to use the scheme’s logo and help with mediation in customer disputes. In our view, the logo is worth showing on your website and Google profile once you hold it.
