Turn searches
into booked jobs.
When the AC dies in July or a pipe bursts at midnight, homeowners don't browse, they search "near me" and call whoever shows up first and looks trustworthy. The contractors who win aren't the cheapest. They're the ones who show up at the top, earn the reviews that build trust, and answer the phone. That's what we build.

Why home services
is a different game.
Marketing a home services business isn't like marketing a product or a brand. When someone's AC quits in July or a pipe bursts at midnight, they don't browse, they search "near me" and call the first business that looks trustworthy and picks up. Demand is urgent, intensely local, and mostly mobile, and the homeowner is ready to book right now. Miss that moment and you rarely get a second chance, they've already called the next company on the list.
Speed decides who wins. Research on the "five-minute rule" found that 78% of homeowners hire the company that responds first, yet roughly 14% of calls to home services businesses go unanswered, and most websites turn only 2 to 3% of visitors into a contact. The job doesn't always go to the best contractor or the cheapest, it goes to the one who answers. Fast response, missed-call recovery, and instant booking aren't nice-to-haves, they're the difference between a full schedule and wasted ad spend.
Homeowners hire on trust, and they check before they call. 91% read online reviews before choosing a local business, and most won't even consider one rated under four stars. Your Google Business Profile, your star rating, and the Google Guaranteed badge on Local Services Ads do more to win the job than any clever ad headline. Reviews and reputation aren't extras, they're the deciding factor in who gets the call and who gets skipped.
And the economics are unforgiving. Clicks aren't cheap, a blended home services click runs around $7 to $9 and emergency HVAC or plumbing terms can top $40 to $60 in competitive metros, but the tickets are big: a plumbing job averages over $2,000, an HVAC install runs $5,000 to $15,000, a roof $8,000 to $25,000, a major fire or water restoration $20,000 or more. What matters isn't the price of a click or even a lead, it's the cost per booked job. A $50 lead that never books costs more than a $200 lead that becomes a $40,000 restoration job. We build to that number, with tight targeting, fast intake, and seasonal budgets that put your money where the jobs are.
Emergency and high-ticket terms draw heavy competition. A single HVAC install or roof can be worth thousands, so contractors bid hard for "near me" searchers. What matters is cost per booked job, not per click.
Most trades need $2,000 to $5,000/month to generate consistent leads; competitive metros and roofing run higher. We size it to your trade, market, and target job volume.
Yes. LSAs sit above the search ads, charge per lead, and carry the Google Guaranteed badge that wins trust. They cap out on volume, so we run them alongside search ads, not instead of them.
Speed and reputation. Showing up first, looking trustworthy with strong reviews, and answering fast beats raw ad spend every time.
The number that
actually matters.
A $40 emergency click sounds steep until you do the math on a booked job. Drag the sliders to see why we optimize for cost per booked job, not cost per click.
Illustrative model, your real numbers depend on trade, market, and how fast you respond. The point: an expensive click is still cheap when the job is worth thousands and your intake actually books it. That's the math we manage to.

Common
questions.
How much does Google Ads cost for a home services business?
It varies a lot by trade, market, and intent. Blended home services cost per click runs around $7 to $9, but it climbs fast for high-intent work: AC repair sits around $8 to $25, installs $15 to $40, and emergency plumbing or HVAC terms can top $40 to $60 in competitive metros. Cost per lead is what really matters, and across the trades it commonly runs from roughly $45 on the low end to well over $150, with roofing and high-ticket services higher still. But the number that decides whether marketing is working is cost per booked job, not per click or per lead. A cheap lead that never books is the most expensive lead there is. We build to booked-job economics with tight targeting, negative keywords, and call tracking so you're paying for jobs, not clicks.
What are Local Services Ads and Google Guaranteed, and should I run them?
Local Services Ads (LSAs) are the listings at the very top of Google, above the regular search ads, with a green "Google Guaranteed" badge that requires Google to verify your license, insurance, and background. Unlike search ads, they charge per lead instead of per click, and they convert well because the badge signals trust and Google backs the work with its guarantee. The catch is that LSAs have limited slots and a budget cap, so volume tops out. For most home services businesses the answer is yes, run them, but alongside search ads rather than instead of them, so you capture both the trust-driven LSA clicks and the high-intent searches that fall below them. If you're not running LSAs, you're handing the top of the page to competitors.
How important are reviews and my Google Business Profile?
They're often the deciding factor. Around 91% of consumers read online reviews before choosing a local business, and most won't even consider one rated under four stars, so a thin or aging review profile quietly loses you jobs before the phone ever rings. Your Google Business Profile and reviews are also what win the Map 3-pack, the three local listings with the map that sit in prime position on "near me" searches, decided largely by proximity, relevance, and review signals. We optimize your Business Profile, build a steady, compliant flow of new reviews, and keep your information accurate across the web so you show up in the map pack and look like the obvious choice when a homeowner compares you to the company next to you.
Why does response time matter so much?
Because in home services, the company that responds first usually gets the job. Research behind the "five-minute rule" found that 78% of buyers hire whoever responds first, and home services demand is urgent, when the water's running or the heat's out, homeowners call down the list until someone answers. Yet roughly 14% of calls to contractors go unanswered, and most websites convert only 2 to 3% of visitors, so a huge share of hard-won, paid-for demand simply leaks away. Driving more leads without fixing response is pouring water into a bucket with holes. We close those holes with call tracking, fast-response routing, missed-call text-back that re-engages the caller automatically, and booking flows that make it easy to say yes, so the leads you pay for actually turn into jobs.
Should I invest in Google Ads, SEO, or both?
Most contractors need both, because they do different jobs. Google Ads and Local Services Ads put you in front of a homeowner the moment they search, fast, controllable, and ideal for capturing urgent "near me" demand right now. SEO and a strong Google Business Profile build the durable presence that wins the Map 3-pack and the organic listings, the results homeowners check before they call, and they keep producing booked jobs without paying for every click. Ads capture demand today; SEO compounds and lowers your blended cost per job over time. We typically run ads for immediate cash flow while building the organic and local foundation underneath, then shift the mix as your rankings and reviews strengthen.
How do you handle seasonality and slow months?
Seasonality is built into the plan, not fought against. HVAC peaks in summer and winter, roofing spikes with storm season and the spring to summer stretch, and restoration demand surges whenever storms, freezes, or wildfires hit, so we shift budget toward each trade's peak windows when intent and close rates are highest, and pull back when they're not. For storm-driven work we keep storm-response campaigns ready so you capture the urgent, high-converting demand the moment a system rolls through. And we use the slower months to compound, building SEO, earning reviews, and improving your site and booking flow, so when demand returns you're the business that shows up first and converts best instead of starting from scratch.
