Reporting tied to qualified leads via call tracking and form attribution — not impressions.
What separates contractor SEO from generic local SEO
Contractors live on portfolio and trust. Top-ranking contractor sites in 2026 have: 20+ project case studies with photos and stories, neighborhood-level content (Brentwood remodels, Walnut Creek additions, etc.), badge prominence (NARI, NAHB, BBB, license number), and before/after galleries with schema markup. Generic local SEO misses all of this.
How we work with national clients
We engage remotely with contractors companies across the US. Weekly Slack + biweekly Zoom; monthly strategist call; quarterly business review. Headquartered in Brentwood, CA — work delivered by a senior US-based team. No offshore content mills.
AI search optimization is built in
Every contractors client gets AEO/GEO included: FAQ schema on every page, llms.txt published, entity-rich content tuned for ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. Most contractors SEO vendors aren't shipping this yet — it's an easy upgrade for your business in 2026.
Frequently asked
Do contractor sites need ImageObject schema for project galleries?
Yes. ImageObject schema on portfolio photos helps Google Images traffic and supports AI Overviews citation. Each photo should have alt text, caption, and at minimum a contentUrl + caption schema.
How does AEO apply to contractors?
When buyers ask ChatGPT 'best remodeler in [city]' or 'how much does a kitchen remodel cost in [city]', AI engines cite contractors with strong entity consensus (Houzz profile, BuildZoom, Angi, local press) and clean schema. We build both signals.
How much does contractors SEO cost?
Single-location contractors SEO runs $2,000-$5,000/month at our agency. Multi-location runs $4,000-$15,000/month depending on number of locations and content cadence. Add-ons: technical audits $1,500-$5,000 one-time, LSA management $500-$1,500/month flat fee.
Are you a national agency or a Bay Area agency?
Both. We're headquartered in Brentwood, CA and lead with Bay Area local work for service businesses. For verticals like roofing, HVAC, plumbing, dental, contractors, and law firms — we work with clients nationwide remotely. The same senior team delivers both.
