FREE REVIEW RESPONSE GENERATOR

Review response generator for tradies

Reply to every Google, Facebook or Hipages review in seconds. Warm and on-brand for the good ones, calm and professional for the ones that sting.

A bad review is not the problem. An unanswered bad review is. Future customers read your replies more closely than they read the reviews, and a calm, professional response can turn a one-star complaint into a reason to trust you.

Why reviews go unanswered

The replies that never get written

😤

You reply while you are still annoyed

The worst time to write a response to an unfair review is straight after reading it, which is exactly when most people do.

🤷

Good reviews get ignored

A five-star review with no reply is a wasted opportunity. Replies are public, and they signal that you care.

🔍

Replies are your shopfront

Prospective clients scroll straight to how you handled the complaints. That is where you win or lose them.

How the Review Responder works

1

Paste the review

2

Pick your tone

The review
2 stars. Turned up two hours late with no phone call, then the job took longer than quoted. Work seems fine but the communication was poor and I had to take a day off for nothing.
Suggested reply

Hi Rebecca, thanks for taking the time to write this, and I am sorry. You are right on both counts.

We were held up on an emergency job that morning, but that is an explanation, not an excuse. You should have had a phone call the moment we knew we were running behind, and you did not get one. Taking a day off work and then being left waiting is genuinely frustrating and I would be annoyed too.

I am glad the work itself has held up. On the communication, that is on us and we have changed how we handle running late.

I would like to make it right. I will give you a call this week, or you can reach me directly on 0412 887 340.

Note what the reply does not do: argue, blame the customer, or dispute the facts in public. Prospective clients read the replies more carefully than the reviews.

What the Review Responder does

🧭

Sentiment detected

It reads whether the review is positive, mixed, or needs care, and pitches the reply accordingly.

🛡️

Handles the hard ones

Calm, professional replies to angry reviews that protect your reputation instead of inflaming it.

🌟

Warm replies to good ones

Thank happy customers properly, in a way that reads as human rather than copy-pasted.

🏷️

Platform aware

Google, Facebook, Instagram, ProductReview, Hipages, or anywhere else you get reviewed.

🎚️

Six tones

From casual to apologetic, so the reply fits the situation and your brand.

⏱️

Replies in under a minute

Which means they actually get sent, instead of sitting in your head for three weeks.

Review Responder questions

Is the review responder free?

Yes. The Review Responder is on the free plan. Paste the review, pick a tone, and copy the reply straight out of the tool. No credit card needed.

How should I respond to a bad review?

Stay calm, do not argue the facts in public, thank them for the feedback, acknowledge the specific issue, and move the conversation offline with a clear next step. Never respond while you are angry. The apologetic and professional tones are built for exactly this.

Should I reply to positive reviews too?

Yes. Replies are public and prospective customers read them. A warm, specific thank you signals that you are engaged and reliable, and it costs you thirty seconds.

Which platforms does it work for?

Google, Facebook, Instagram, ProductReview, Hipages, and anywhere else you collect reviews. Tell it the platform and it pitches the reply appropriately.

Can I edit the reply before posting it?

Yes, and you should. Add the detail only you know, like the job specifics or the fix you offered. The tool removes the blank page and the emotion, not your judgement.

Does it post the reply for me?

No. It writes the reply and you copy it into the platform yourself. You always decide what gets published.
