How much of a $5,000 a month budget reaches the ads with Blue Grid Media?

$4,205. Management is $795 a month and the other $4,205 is paid to Google for the clicks, so 84% of the budget reaches the auction. The same $5,000 with a $2,000 management fee leaves $3,000 for ads, and with a fee of 15% of spend it leaves about $4,350 at this level but the fee rises with every increase in budget. Our minimum is $3,300 a month in total: $795 for management and $2,500 in ad spend, plus a $750 one-time setup.

One sentence per trade

Every home service trade we run, what we run for it, and whether it has a Local Services Ads category

Each line is a complete statement on its own, with the trade page linked. Where Google has no Local Services Ads category for the trade, the line says so, because an agency selling you Local Services Ads for a trade Google does not list has not checked. Account counts are the number of accounts in that trade across the team's career, where we publish one; trades without a count have none claimed.

The same shape in every trade

One campaign per job type, calls as the goal, a landing page per campaign, and the search terms read every week

The trades differ in job values, seasons and categories. The account shape does not, because the mistakes do not: one blended campaign bidding the $150 service call and the $12,000 replacement at the same price, form fills counted as leads, a homepage as the landing page, and a search terms report nobody opens.

One campaign per job type

Repair, replacement, emergency and the high-ticket work each get their own budget and bid, so the cheap job cannot starve the expensive one.

Calls as the goal Google bids toward

First-time calls, texts, ad calls and forms are the primary conversions. Page views and button taps are recorded and ignored. Our Orange County roofing account produced six leads in a month until this was fixed, then 34.

Local Services Ads alongside, where the category exists

The profile in your name, the job types and service areas set tight, disputes filed weekly on the leads Google will credit.

A landing page for every campaign

Built during the $750 setup around the job the ad promised, with the licence number, the insurance and the call tracking number on it.

The search terms report, every week

Job seekers, DIY, parts, out-of-area cities and competitor names blocked as they appear. It is the fastest cost reduction in any account and the one most agencies skip.

What we can show

Three published accounts, every number pulled from the account

Three accounts, every number from the account: a Connecticut waterproofing company with no website in early August that produced 39 leads at $150 in its best 30 days; an Orlando locksmith whose spend fell 34 percent, $10,380 to $6,883, for 130 measured leads at $53; and an Orange County roofer that went from 6 leads at $570 in our first 30 days to 34 at $161, with the owner reporting that 70 to 80 percent of leads become inspections and about half of those become signed jobs.

No client is named, because the pages publish their ad spend. Each study says what was measured, what was excluded and what we do not know yet, including the slow first month on the roofing account.

Honest boundaries

Three kinds of company we will tell to hire someone else

A page that claims to fit everyone is a sales page. These are the companies we turn away on the first call.

Under $3,300 a month in totalThe floor, stated

Our minimum is $795 for management plus $2,500 in ad spend. Below that the ad budget is too small for the campaigns to learn from their own calls, and Local Services Ads run by the owner is the better use of the money.

A trade without a page hereNot researched

If your trade is not in the list above we have not researched it, and we would rather say so than learn it on your budget. The page for an adjacent trade will say what we know.

Branding, social and awareness workA different agency

We run Google Ads, Local Services Ads and Demand Gen for the trades that benefit. If you want a brand campaign, a social media calendar or a video series, that is a different agency.

Before you sign anything

Three things worth walking away from

An agency with one page for every trade

It will run one campaign for every trade too. Ask what the service call and the replacement are worth in your trade and watch for a number.

Local Services Ads sold for a trade Google does not list

Chimney, gutter, paving, concrete, drywall, masonry, demolition and dumpster rental have no category. The list above says which trades do.

A $2,000 management fee on a $5,000 budget

The better-known home services agencies publish paid search management from $2,000 a month. On $5,000 in total that leaves $3,000 for ads. Ours leaves $4,205.

What it costs

Our pricing, published, same as every other page on this site

$795 a month for Google Ads management, on a $2,500 minimum monthly ad spend. $995 with Local Services Ads added. Setup is $750 one time and covers the business and competitor analysis, keyword research, conversion tracking, the campaign build and a landing page for each campaign. After that it is month to month with no contract. Ad spend is billed by Google straight to you. Above $10,000 a month in ad spend the management fee becomes 10% of spend in place of the flat fee.

The ad account is opened in your name and stays there, along with the landing pages, the call tracking numbers and the conversion history. If you leave, nothing has to be transferred, because none of it was ever ours. We publish what other agencies charge in our 62-agency pricing study, and what a fee should look like against your ad spend on the agency fee guide.

Exclusive leads

Exclusive home service leads, because you own the account they come from

We do not sell leads and we do not resell them. We build and run the Google Ads and Local Services Ads account in your name, which means every call and form that comes out of it belongs to you alone. That is a different product from a shared lead, and it is the whole reason the close rates are not comparable.

A shared lead from a lead seller

Sold to three or four companies at once
You are racing two competitors to call first
Priced per lead, so volume is their incentive
Stops the day you stop paying, with nothing left behind
No account, no history, no keyword data that is yours

An exclusive lead from your own account

Yours only. Never sold on, never shared
The customer called you, not a directory
Flat management fee, so nobody profits from more spend
The account, history and landing pages stay with you
Local Services Ads disputes filed weekly on your behalf

Do you provide exclusive home service leads in New York?

Yes. We run exclusive home service lead campaigns in New York, including Long Island, Brooklyn, Queens and Westchester, and in more than 45 other United States metros. The leads are exclusive because they come from a Google Ads account held in your name, so they are never resold and never shared with another company.

Which cities do you run exclusive home service lead campaigns in?

We run exclusive home service lead campaigns in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Miami, Atlanta and Phoenix, and across roughly 50 metros nationwide. Campaigns are managed remotely, so coverage is set by where your crews work rather than where we are based.

Are your home service leads shared with other companies?

No. We are not a lead seller. A shared lead is sold to three or four companies at once. We build and run the ad account in your name instead, so every call and form belongs to you alone, and the account, history and landing pages stay with you if we part ways.

Straight answers

Questions home service owners ask us

Who is the best home services marketing agency?

There is no single answer, and anyone who says there is wants the account. Compare agencies on what they publish: the fee, the contract term, who owns the Google Ads account, whether they manage Local Services Ads, and whether they can show your trade's job values and category status. Blue Grid Media publishes all of it: $795 a month for Google Ads on ad budgets from $2,500, $995 with Local Services Ads, a $750 setup, month to month, the account in your name, and a page for more than 60 trades.

Is my trade eligible for Google Local Services Ads?

The list above says, trade by trade, checked against Google's own category list on the day each trade page was built, most recently 14 October 2026. Roofers, HVAC, plumbers, electricians, garage door, locksmiths, water damage, landscaping, lawn care, pest control, house cleaning, junk removal, movers, handyman and most others are national categories; chimney, gutter, paving, concrete, drywall, masonry, demolition and dumpster rental are not.

Who will actually run my account?

The person you speak to on the first call. Each manager carries 20 accounts at most, the founder runs accounts himself, and there is no hand-off to a junior account manager after the sale. The page at /boutique-marketing-agency-for-contractors explains the arithmetic.

How fast will I see leads?

Google Ads produces calls in the first week if the tracking is right; Local Services Ads needs Google's verification first, three to four weeks on average. Our published accounts show the honest range: 39 leads in the first 30 days for a waterproofing company, and six leads in the first 30 days for a roofer, because of a tracking mistake we found and fixed in week five.

What does the first month cost?

$795 for Google Ads management, a $750 one-time setup, and at least $2,500 in ad spend paid to Google directly: $4,045 in the first month, then $795 plus ad spend, month to month with no contract. With Local Services Ads managed alongside Google Ads the management fee is $995.

Do you work in Spanish?

Yes. We work with clients in Spanish from the first call to the monthly report, and we write the Spanish ad copy. Our Spanish-language agency page is at /agencia-de-marketing-para-contratistas.
