Remodeling leads with the budget already decided.

Kitchens, bathrooms, decks, basements, and additions are five-figure decisions that start with a search. We run campaigns by project type so the person who calls already knows what they want built.

A general contractor's marketing problem is breadth: you do kitchens and decks and basements and additions, and a single "remodeling" campaign treats them all the same. The homeowner searching "deck builder near me" has a budget, a season, and a picture in their head, and they want a page and a phone call that speak to that.

We split the account by project type, with a search campaign and landing page for each, and add Performance Max to fill the top of the funnel at under $11 a lead. For MD Custom Construction in St. Mary's County that produced 239 leads in one month at a $41 average, and the client confirmed that half the search-campaign leads close. The same schema and content work made them ChatGPT's "Best overall" general contractor in their city.
