Completed jobs can keep creating marketing value after the invoice is sent. Preserve the proof, approve it safely, and reuse it where future customers need trust.
Start with what the homeowner noticed, then turn the symptom into a project story that explains the diagnosis, the work, and the change.
Photos show the work. Reviews show the experience. Results show what changed. Together they answer the homeowner's real question: can I trust this company?

Use a small freshness checklist to keep review activity current instead of letting the profile drift into history.
