Fence Houses, Rainton, Penshaw: our patch
Houghton-le-Spring sits between our Washington office and Durham, and it’s where our best-performing social media account lives. Better Homes, a property investment and lettings company in Fence Houses, came to us in May 2026 with a page of a few hundred followers. Four months later: 1.8 million views and 6,400+ followers, with 91% of those views from people who had never seen the page before.
Down the road at Rainton Meadows, Cheese & Pickle Catering trust us with their social media, and across Houghton and Washington we photograph homes for EweMove so listings look their best. Different businesses, same approach: learn the business first, then build the content around it.
Ten minutes away, and we come to you
Around 90% of our clients meet us face to face. For Houghton that usually means we come to you, with the camera in the boot: Karn, our photographer, shoots your food, your premises, your team and your jobs, so your posts show your real business and not stock photos.
If you need more than social media, it’s all under one roof: websites built in-house, Google Business Profile set up and kept active, branding, drone work and custom software when the admin is the problem.
One business per trade, per area
We don’t take on competing businesses in the same area for social media. If we look after your café in Houghton, we’re not doing the same for the one across the road. Your page is the one we’re focused on.
