Roofing leads in Galway, drawn by driving time.
Galway roofing is shaped by two things that have nothing to do with marketing: Atlantic weather and the size of the county. Exposure on the western side produces genuine storm damage, and the distance from the city to Connemara makes a great many enquiries uneconomic before you leave the yard.
The city adds a third complication — a very large student population that inflates every audience figure and buys no roofing whatsoever.
Target driving time, not the county
A radius drawn around Galway city includes places nobody will drive to for a repair, and the roads west are slower than any map suggests.
Named towns within a realistic drive is the correct setting and it is almost never the default. It is the single biggest efficiency available on a Galway trades account.
Exposure work is real and it is seasonal
The western side of the county takes weather that most of Ireland does not, and roofs there fail in ways that inland roofs do not — lifted slates, ridge damage, flashing torn out.
That work arrives in bursts and it goes to whoever is visible at the time. Being set up before the season, rather than reacting to it, is the whole game in a coastal county.
Exclude the students
Galway's third-level population is large, clicks freely and will never buy a roof. They inflate reach, they flatter the reporting, and they cost real money in a city campaign.
Excluding them lowers your impression figures and improves your cost per enquiry, which is the trade worth making every time.

Questions from Galway roofers
By realistic driving time rather than radius. The roads west are slow and a circle around the city includes places nobody will travel to for a repair.
On the western side, genuinely. It arrives in bursts after weather and goes to whoever is already visible, which is an argument for being set up before the season.
They inflate every audience figure in the city and buy nothing. Excluding them lowers your reach numbers and improves your cost per enquiry.
Not in the map results. Proximity decides those and Galway is far too large. Ranking well in your own catchment is the realistic goal.
