Marketing agency for civil contractors Perth
Run by a bloke who ran the grader.
Most marketing agencies have never stood on a subdivision at 6am. Justin Ripley spent about 20 years in civil: plant operator, final-trim grader operator, then four to five years as site supervisor dealing with every contractor on site. Now he and his son Jake run Syvex, a marketing agency for civil contractors Perth businesses can actually talk to. Nothing goes live until you approve it.
Based in Perth's northern suburbs, servicing Joondalup, Wanneroo, Wangara and Australia wide.
Syvex is a marketing agency for civil contractors Perth businesses can deal with directly. It is run by Justin Ripley, a former plant operator, grader operator and site supervisor with about 20 years in civil, and his son Jake. We build websites, Google Business Profiles, local SEO and Google Ads that help builders, developers and head contractors find you.
Your customer is the builder, not the public.
Civil contractors mostly win work from builders, developers and head contractors. They check you out before they ring: your Google listing, your reviews, your website, your plant and your tickets. The marketing has to answer their questions, not a homeowner's.
Found by the people who hire you
A Google Business Profile and service pages built around what builders search: earthmoving, site works, retaining walls, trim and bulk earthworks, in the suburbs and regions you work.
A website that proves you can do the job
Your plant list, tickets and accreditations, safety record and finished jobs with photos. The things a site supervisor checks before they trust you on their site.
Reviews from builders you already work for
A simple way to ask the builders and developers you already deliver for to leave a Google review. One tap with our review cards.

We have been the sub. We have chased the invoice.
Justin worked Perth subdivisions and FIFO swings up north, and ran sites with fencing, limestone walls, footpaths, concrete, asphalt, kerbing, plumbers, electricians and earthmovers all on the go. Jake worked alongside him as a plant operator before Syvex. We know what a good contractor looks like to the person hiring, because we used to be that person.
Our published results so far are in other trades: a Perth removalist and a Sydney mobile detailer. Civil is where we come from, and we will tell you straight what will and will not work for your business.
Do you understand how civil contractors win work?
Yes. Justin Ripley spent about 20 years in civil as a plant operator, final-trim grader operator and site supervisor on Perth subdivisions and FIFO jobs up north, dealing with every contractor on site. Most civil work comes from builders, developers and head contractors, not the public, so the marketing has to speak to them.
What marketing does a civil contractor actually need?
Usually three things: a Google Business Profile and website that show up when a builder or developer searches your service and area, a site that shows your plant, tickets and finished jobs, and Google reviews from the builders you already work for. Paid ads only where the job value makes them pay.
Have you done marketing for civil companies before?
Our published results so far are in other trades: a Perth removalist and a Sydney mobile detailer, both on our projects page. Civil is where we come from, not yet where most of our clients are, and we will tell you straight what we think will and will not work for your business.
Do you work outside Perth?
Perth first, mostly north of the river. We also work with businesses in New South Wales, South Australia, Victoria and Queensland.
