The jobs you want more of

A campaign for each kind of work you do.

Homeowners search for a specific job, so each service group gets its own ads, page and tracking instead of one general account. Roofing, cleaning, insulation and drywall can follow the same structure.

HVAC and electrical

Repair, install and call-out work where the caller wants a technician today. Campaigns separate the jobs you want most from the ones you do not.

Plumbing and emergency services

Urgent, high-value calls need a fast phone path and tight service-area targeting, kept apart from routine enquiries.

Remodeling and home improvement

Larger jobs with longer decisions. Quote-request campaigns and pages built for a site visit, not a quick call.

Search→Ad→Page→Call or quote→Booked job
  1. 01

    Local search

    A homeowner searches for a specific service in your area, often with urgency.

  2. 02

    Service-specific ad

    The ad names the exact service and area, so clicks come from the right jobs.

  3. 03

    Relevant service page

    One page per service, with the phone number and quote form easy to find.

  4. 04

    Call or quote request

    Calls and forms are tracked, so you can see which campaigns ring the phone.

  5. 05

    Follow-up

    Missed calls and slow replies are visible, so the enquiry is answered before the next company.

  6. 06

    Booked-job opportunity

    Results are reviewed against booked work where you can share it, not just enquiry counts.

Where home service ad spend leaks

Getting calls, but not the jobs and areas that pay?

  1. Clicks from outside your service area

    Loose location targeting sends calls from places you cannot reach.

    How Adlyvo helps: Targeting matches the areas you actually work.
  2. Enquiries for services you do not offer

    Broad terms attract jobs that were never yours.

    How Adlyvo helps: Search terms are reviewed and negatives added.
  3. Broad keywords wasting budget

    General terms burn spend on people just browsing.

    How Adlyvo helps: Campaigns focus on high-intent, service-specific searches.
  4. Emergency and routine intent mixed

    An urgent call and a price-check need different ads and pages.

    How Adlyvo helps: They are separated so urgent budget is protected.
  5. Calls and forms not tracked correctly

    You cannot tell which ads produced the phone ringing.

    How Adlyvo helps: Calls and forms are measured as conversions.
  6. All traffic sent to the homepage

    A visitor searching for one service lands on a page about everything.

    How Adlyvo helps: Each priority service gets a matching page.
  7. Leads followed up too slowly

    The caller rings the next company while yours is on a job.

    How Adlyvo helps: Response gaps become visible.

Problem

A residential electrical contractor was getting traffic from search but couldn't consistently turn it into booked jobs, with no clear read on which campaigns were worth the spend.

Strategy

We built a dedicated Search campaign around high-intent electrical service terms, layered in call tracking, and kept the account's Google Ads optimization score at 96% through ongoing bid and budget management.

Service areas

Good leads need the right service and the right location.

Campaigns follow where you send crews, so the calls that come in are jobs you can actually book.

  • Core areaThe neighborhoods you serve best get the strongest priority and budget.
  • Surrounding areasExtended locations are targeted where the job value justifies the drive.
  • Excluded areasPlaces you do not serve, or that are not profitable, are kept out of targeting.

Location targeting reduces out-of-area clicks but cannot be perfect. Search terms are reviewed to catch the rest.

FAQ

Home services Google Ads questions, answered.

How much do Google Ads leads cost for home service businesses?

It varies by trade, service area, season and competition, so we do not quote a universal cost per lead. We review your market and job values first, and track calls and forms so you can see what enquiries actually cost you.

Should I use Google Search Ads, Local Services Ads or both?

This page covers Google Ads Search campaigns. Local Services Ads are a separate Google program with their own setup and eligibility, and are not part of the scope described here. The audit can look at which fits your business.

Can you advertise only my priority services and service areas?

Yes. Campaigns can be structured around the jobs you want most, and location targeting reflects the areas you actually serve.

How do you track calls versus booked jobs?

Calls and forms are tracked as conversions, so you can see which ads produce enquiries. Connecting those to booked jobs depends on how you record them, and outcome feedback can help where you can share it.

Why am I getting irrelevant calls or calls outside my service area?

Usually search terms are too broad or location targeting is loose. Search terms are reviewed, negatives added, and targeting matched to where you work, so fewer calls come from jobs or areas you cannot take.

Getting clicks but not enough qualified calls or booked jobs?

Adlyvo can review your search terms, service areas, campaign structure, tracking and landing experience to find where the budget or lead journey is breaking down.
