When a pipe bursts or the furnace stops, people don’t browse. They search, look at the first few results in Google Maps and call. Home services marketing is about being one of those first few results, then answering the phone.

01

How do homeowners choose a trade company?

Most home service jobs start on Google. Urgent jobs, such as a leak or a power issue, usually go to whoever shows up first and answers. Planned jobs, such as a new roof or a heat pump, take longer: homeowners compare reviews, photos and quotes.

Google Maps and Local Services Ads for trades

Google says local results are based mainly on relevance, distance and prominence. For a trade, that means accurate categories, a clear service area, steady reviews and a website that matches what your profile says.

Google Local Services Ads appear above regular ads with your reviews, a call button and, once you pass Google’s checks, the “Google Verified” badge. You pay per lead, not per click. In Canada, Google lists home service categories such as plumbers, HVAC, roofers and electricians. Google runs its own screening, which can include business, licence and insurance checks, so we confirm availability for your area before you apply.

We never promise a ranking position or Local Services Ads approval. Google decides both. We focus on the parts you control.

04

Serving Surrey and the Lower Mainland

Surrey is spread across six communities: City Centre/Whalley, Guildford, Fleetwood, Newton, Cloverdale and South Surrey. A trade based in Cloverdale might also cover Langley and White Rock, while a Guildford company might focus on North Surrey and Coquitlam. We set ad radiuses and service-area pages around where your trucks can get to on time, not just where you would like to rank.

Which home service businesses do you work with?

We focus on plumbers, HVAC companies, roofers and electricians, and also work with other trades such as cleaning, landscaping and renovation companies.

Are Local Services Ads better than Google Search Ads?

They work differently. Local Services Ads charge per lead and need Google’s screening, while Search Ads charge per click and give you more control. Many trades use both.

How long does it take to rank in Google Maps?

It depends on your competition, location, reviews and how complete your profile is. Ads can produce calls sooner while Local SEO builds.

Can you help me get more reviews?

Yes. We set up a simple way to ask customers for a Google review after each job. We never write or buy reviews, which breaks Google’s rules.

Do I need a new website?

Not always. We first check whether your current site loads fast, works on mobile and has a page for each main service. If it does, we improve it instead of replacing it.
