Home Services and Contractor Marketing

Marketing for Home Service Businesses
That Keeps Your Phone Ringing

MPH Marketing’s home services marketing helps plumbers, HVAC companies, roofers, electricians, remodelers, painters, restoration companies and other contractors across Metro Detroit get more calls and booked jobs. We focus on the channels homeowners use when something breaks: Google Maps, Local Services Ads, Google search and reviews.

The Short Answer

What Is Home Services Marketing?

Home services marketing is how contractors and service companies get found by homeowners who need work done, and turn those searches into booked jobs. It centers on local search: your Google Business Profile, map rankings, Local Services Ads, Google search ads, reviews and a website that makes it easy to call or request service.

Most home service searches are local and urgent: "water heater repair near me," "roof leak Royal Oak," "AC not working." The businesses that win show up in the map pack and at the top of the page with strong reviews, clear service areas and a phone number that is one tap away. Seasonality matters too. Furnace, AC, roofing and snow-related demand all swing through a Michigan year, and campaigns should move with it.

What our home services marketing includes:

  • Google Business Profile optimization and weekly posting
  • Service pages for each job type you want more of
  • Service area pages for the cities you cover
  • Local Services Ads setup, budget management and lead disputes
  • Google Ads for emergency and high-ticket services
  • Review generation after every completed job
  • Call tracking and recording to measure booked jobs
  • Seasonal campaign planning for Michigan weather
