See Exactly Where You Rank

Ranking #1 at your shop doesn’t mean you rank #1 across town. We scan a grid of points over your service area and check where you show up in the Map Pack for the searches that bring in calls.
  • Green is the top 3, where the calls come from.
  • Yellow and red are where a competitor is taking your calls.
  • We track every keyword that brings you work, and re-scan every month so you see exactly what moved.

Three Buyers. Three Different Searches.

A general contractor sells to more than one kind of customer, and each one searches and decides differently. Your marketing has to win all three.
Homeowners
Commercial owners & property managers

What they’re planning
Custom homes, additions, major renovations
Build-outs, tenant improvements, renovations
New projects and their bid lists

A portfolio organized by project type and location
Most construction websites speak to nobody in particular. A homeowner and a property manager land on the same generic page and neither sees their kind of project. We build separate paths for each buyer, so every visitor finds work like theirs.

How We Build Your Construction Pipeline

Four phases, in order. The Map Pack first because it’s where most local searches start, then pages for the work you want, a portfolio that proves it, and the reviews that hold it all in place.

Marketing From Someone Who Came Up in the Trades

Local Contractors Marketing is run by Paul Leary, who spent decades in the trades before he started ranking contractors on Google in 2010. He knows how long a construction project takes to land, why buyers judge you by the work you’ve already built, and what a thin pipeline means for your crews next season.
We only work with home service and construction contractors. You talk directly to the person doing the work, not an account manager reading from a script.

Construction Marketing Questions

Straight answers to what general contractors ask us most.
What is general contractor SEO?
General contractor SEO is the work that gets a construction company found on Google by the people who hire GCs: homeowners planning custom homes and additions, commercial owners and property managers planning build-outs, and the architects and developers who build bid lists. It covers your Google Business Profile, a page for each project type you build, pages for the towns you work in, a portfolio of completed projects, and reviews that name the work.
How do construction companies get more projects from Google?
Construction buyers search by project type and location, then check your portfolio before they call. Rank a dedicated page for each type of work you want (custom homes, additions, commercial build-outs, tenant improvements), back it with project pages that show photos, scope, and location, and keep your Google Business Profile active with completed work and reviews that name the project.
How much does construction marketing cost with Local Contractors Marketing?
There are two options. The Quick Start is $1,000 one-time: we review your website and Google Business Profile, set a visibility baseline, make the priority fixes, and re-check about 30 days later. Ongoing Website and Google Business Profile SEO is $1,500 per month, month-to-month, with no long-term contract. Larger websites or multiple locations may need a custom quote.
How long does SEO take for a construction company?
Google Business Profile changes can start moving Map Pack positions within weeks. New project-type and town pages usually take a few months to reach page one. Construction projects are also planned months ahead, so the companies ranking now are the ones getting the calls for next season’s projects.
What should a construction company look for in a marketing agency?
Look for an agency that works only with contractors, understands the difference between residential and commercial buyers, shows you where you rank today before you pay for anything, doesn’t lock you into a long contract, and builds on your own website and Google profile instead of renting you leads. You should be able to talk directly to the person doing the work.
How do I get my construction company recommended by ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews?
AI tools recommend businesses they can confirm across many sources. That means consistent name, address, and phone details everywhere you are listed, project-type pages that answer real buyer questions about cost, timeline, and process, completed project pages with location and scope, reviews that describe the work, and structured data that tells search engines exactly what you build and where.
