The first business to answer usually gets the job. A homeowner calls at a busy moment. Your team is on a job, and the call goes unanswered. Phone screen: Missed call, 2:14 PM. An automatic text goes back in seconds. Not a voicemail greeting. A friendly text from your business. Text sent automatically: Sorry we missed you! What can we help with? The homeowner replies and gets a booking link. They pick a time that works for them, right from the text. Homeowner: Hi, I need an estimate. Is this week possible? Business: Yes! Pick any open time here. Link: Book a time. Estimate booked: Thursday, 10:00 AM. The estimate lands on your calendar. Time, address and job details are filled in automatically. Calendar, Thursday: New estimate at 10:00 AM. Your team gets notified. The right people see the new booking, with everything they need. Notifications to the office and the estimator: New estimate booked, Thursday 10:00 AM, details attached. Without it, the call waits in voicemail. By the time someone calls back, the homeowner may have booked someone else. Voicemail: next morning callback. Text back: estimate booked the same afternoon.

Why work with MAJ

What MAJ builds for Milford waterproofing companies

Your problem

Wrong advice, then no answer

Regional pages tell Milford homeowners to call MSD, which does not serve the city, and a homeowner sent the wrong way remembers who sent them. When the heaviest rain arrives, that same homeowner calls whoever answers.

What we build

Milford-first pages and a fast reply

We write pages that point sewer questions to the city's Wastewater division, set up missed-call text back and booking links for storm days, and keep your map profile current with recent jobs.

  • We know who runs the sewer

    Your Milford pages give the city's Wastewater number and leave MSD out, the kind of detail homeowners notice.

  • Reporting by source

    Every booked inspection is tied to the ad, listing or page that produced it, with totals in a monthly report.

  • One team for the whole system

    Ads, pages, CRM and video come from one team, so you are not chasing three vendors after a storm.

Milford facts a waterproofing company should know

  • City wastewater is the first call

    The City of Milford Wastewater division collects and treats the city's sewage and asks residents with sewer issues to call (513) 831-6982 before calling a plumber.

    Source: Wastewater, City of Milford Public Works

  • MSD does not serve Milford

    MSD lists Milford's Hamilton County portion among the communities it does not serve, so MSD's programs do not apply there. Regional pages that quote them to Milford homeowners point people the wrong way.

  • A city stormwater fee

    Milford funds stormwater work through a Storm Water Utility fee, with single-family and two-family homes paying a flat bimonthly charge. Drainage is already on the homeowner's radar, and on their bill.

  • Water drawn along the river

    Milford's own water department draws from sources along the Little Miami River and treats it at a groundwater plant inside the city. River and groundwater are part of daily life here, and pages that acknowledge it read as local.

    Source: Water, City of Milford Public Works

  • Permits through NIC and the county

    Milford building permit applications go to the City Administration Building and on to National Inspection Corporation, usually reviewed in 5 to 15 business days, while plumbing permits are processed by Clermont County.

Why Milford waterproofing leads leak away

  1. No answer when the river rises

    High water on the Little Miami and the East Fork tends to arrive with the heaviest rain, which is exactly when every waterproofing phone in the area is ringing.

  2. A map listing gone stale

    Homeowners scan the map first. A profile with old photos and few recent reviews loses to one that shows this month's jobs.

  3. Ads that only run after a flood

    Turning ads on after a storm misses the months when homeowners plan sump pump replacements and crack repairs calmly.

Questions owners ask

Should Milford homeowners call MSD about a sewer backup?

No. MSD lists Milford's Hamilton County portion among the communities it does not serve, and the city's Wastewater Department asks residents to call (513) 831-6982 about sewer issues before calling a plumber. We put that number on your Milford page.

What happens to our leads when a big storm hits?

They arrive all at once, and the company that replies first and sounds credible stands the strongest chance at the inspection. We set up missed-call text back, a booking link and a routing plan before the next storm, so more of the spike gets a reply instead of a voicemail.

Who issues permits for waterproofing work in Milford?

Building permit applications go to the City Administration Building and are reviewed by National Inspection Corporation, usually in 5 to 15 business days, while Clermont County processes plumbing permits. We describe that on your pages without promising a timeline for any job.

Do you shoot video of our crews and finished basements?

Yes. Manny started MAJ as a video production company, and one shoot day on your jobs becomes ads, website video and a month of posts. Homeowners comparing three companies want to see who will be working in their basement.

What is in the free audit?
