A homeowner searching for a plumber at ten at night is not comparison shopping for fun. They need someone now, and the contractor who shows up in the Map Pack, has the reviews to back it up and answers first gets the job. We build local visibility, speed to lead and call tracking around that, then price it off the same rate card every other client gets.
Home services runs on urgency and proximity in a way most industries do not. A burst pipe, a dead furnace or a roof leak is decided in minutes, not over a three week nurture sequence. The homeowner picks from what Google puts in front of them, weighs the star rating, calls two or three numbers and books whoever picks up. A slow site or an untracked call is a lost job, not a lost click. Planned work like a kitchen remodel behaves differently and needs its own pages and its own campaigns, but the same three things decide both. Local visibility, review credibility and how fast someone gets a real answer.
Speed to lead is the part most contractors lose on. It is not a marketing problem, it is a routing problem, and it gets fixed inside the CRM and automation build. A lead that reaches a technician's phone in under a minute converts differently than one that waits until the truck is back at the shop. We build the routing, the text-back and the follow-up before we spend a dollar on ads to feed it.
Nothing here is a contractor-only product. These are the standard services, ordered the way a trade business actually needs them.
Three local results sit above everything else on a phone. We work the Google Business Profile, the service area pages and the local signals behind them so you appear in the towns you drive to, not just the one on your letterhead. Detail on the SEO and local search page.
Volume, rating and recency all move local ranking, and they are the first thing a homeowner reads. Requests go out automatically after a completed job instead of whenever someone remembers. Detail on the review generation page.
Emergency and near-me terms, bid by service and by zip code, on pages built for someone who is going to call rather than read. Separate campaigns for planned projects that need more research time. Detail on the paid media page.
Routing, instant text-back, missed call follow-up and the review request sequence. This is what turns a form fill at 9pm into a scheduled job instead of a voicemail nobody returns. Detail on the CRM and automation page.
The phone closes the sale in this trade, not the form. Every call is tied back to the search term, the ad and the zip code behind it, so you can see which service pays. Detail on the measurement page.
Which services are emergencies and which are planned projects. Which towns are worth bidding on and which are a forty minute drive for a low ticket. When your demand peaks and when it falls off. That is the Growth Signal Audit, $4,500 over two weeks.
Call tracking, form attribution and the connection between a booked job and what produced it. We do not manage ad spend against broken tracking. The Measurement Infrastructure Build starts at $7,500 and comes first.
Routing, instant text-back and missed call follow-up, plus the automated review request after a completed job. Built inside the CRM and automation build so the ads have somewhere to land.
Local search and reviews build the base that keeps producing in the off season. Paid search sits on top of it for the emergency terms you cannot rank for fast enough. Both run against the same tracking.
Seasonality gets planned, not absorbed. A roofer in March and a roofer in November are not running the same account, and neither is an HVAC company in July. We pace media budget against your demand curve rather than dividing an annual number by twelve, and we use the slow months to build the local and review base that carries the busy ones. The mechanics of the spend tiers are on the paid media page.
What we build, and what each piece actually changes for the business.
Visibility that matches your truck route instead of a single zip code around the shop.
Review volume and recency that keep working on local ranking without anyone remembering to ask.
A homeowner gets a real answer in seconds, which is usually the whole difference on an emergency call.
The burst pipe search and the kitchen remodel search stop competing for the same landing page.
A clear read on which service and which town actually pay, so budget stops going where it does not.
Spend that follows demand instead of an annual number divided evenly by month.
The same numbers any other client pays. No contractor surcharge and no hourly billing.
Two of those engagements are written up as case studies, our Home Services Paid Search work and our Classic Six Paid Search work. Both showed the same pattern. Urgent, high intent search terms convert fast when the landing experience and the phone answer are actually ready for them, and they waste money when they are not.
The approach travels across trades. Roofing, HVAC, plumbing and remodeling differ in ticket size and in how long the homeowner takes to decide, but the sequence is the same every time. Be findable locally, be credible on reviews, answer first, and count the call. You can read the write-ups on the case studies page.
Every number above is the standard rate card. Roofing, HVAC, plumbing and remodeling are not priced higher for being trades. What changes between one contractor and another is which pieces you need and how big the service area is.
We do not quote a cost per lead before we have seen your tracking, and we do not guarantee a number of booked jobs. Too much of that sits with your pricing, your close rate and how fast your team answers. We will tell you what we can control and show you the numbers on the rest.
Managed retainers run as 12-month partnerships starting at $2,000 a month, with a six-month term available at a 15% premium. Builds and audits are one-time and fixed scope. Ad spend is billed directly by the platform and never marked up. No hourly billing on any of it.

Tell us what trade you are in, what your service area actually covers, and whether you can tell which calls came from which ad. We will tell you honestly what it takes to fix it, and what it costs off the standard rate card.
Yes. Our home services paid search work and our Classic Six paid search work are both written up in full, and both were built around urgent, local search intent rather than traffic volume. The same approach is detailed on the paid media page and applies across trades, whatever you run.
On a phone, three local results sit above almost everything else, and a homeowner with an emergency rarely scrolls past them. That is why the Google Business Profile, the service area pages and review signals get worked first. We build coverage for every town and neighborhood you actually drive to, not just your home city, because a contractor's service area almost never matches one zip code or a template local package. Detail is on the SEO and local search page.
Speed to lead is how long a homeowner waits between raising their hand and hearing from a person. For emergency work, seconds to minutes. A homeowner with water coming through a ceiling calls the next number on the list rather than waiting. We build routing, instant text-back and missed call follow-up inside the CRM and automation build so the lead reaches a phone immediately, then a person follows up rather than the automation pretending to be one.
They get separate campaigns and separate pages. A burst pipe needs a fast page and an obvious way to call right now. A kitchen remodel tolerates research, photos, a gallery and a longer follow-up sequence, and the homeowner may take weeks. Treating both with one landing page and one bid strategy wastes money on the side it does not fit. The split is covered on the paid media page and the SEO page.
Yes, and it is the piece most contractor accounts are missing. Call tracking connects a booked job back to the specific ad, search term or page that produced it, which matters in a trade where the phone closes the sale rather than the website form. It gets built in the Measurement Infrastructure Build, from $7,500, and is covered on the measurement page. We do not manage ad spend against broken tracking, so it comes first.
Media budget gets paced against your demand curve rather than split evenly across twelve months, so more of it lands when homeowners are actually searching. The slow months go into the work that compounds, local visibility, review volume and content for planned project searches, which is what keeps producing when you are not bidding hard. The retainer itself is a 12-month partnership, so the plan is built for the whole year rather than one peak.
Yes, and for a contractor it is one of the few things that moves both rankings and close rate at the same time. Review volume, rating and recency all feed local ranking, and they are usually the deciding factor for a homeowner comparing three companies in two minutes. Requests fire automatically off a completed job rather than depending on someone remembering. The mechanics are on the review generation page, and how reviews feed local ranking is on the SEO page.
No. Anyone quoting you a cost per lead before seeing your tracking is guessing, and job counts depend on your pricing, your close rate and how fast your team answers the phone. What we will do is show you what a lead currently costs you, where it is leaking, and what the work costs off the standard rate card. Start with the Growth Signal Audit at $4,500 if you want the honest version before committing to anything.
Ongoing paid media, local search or measurement management runs as a 12-month partnership starting at $2,000 a month, with a six-month option at a 15% premium. Those are the same terms every client gets. A website build, a Measurement Build, a CRM and automation build and the Growth Signal Audit are all one-time, fixed-scope projects rather than retainers. Full terms are on the pricing page.
