SEO, PPC and AI-search marketing for home-service companies in Canada
Home-service searches are urgent and local, and roofing and HVAC leads are among the most expensive to buy. Owning the map pack and running disciplined paid search lets you rely less on shared leads from marketplaces. HomeStars reviews are widely used in Canada and often appear for branded and local searches.
Regulators and rules for home-service companies in Canada
Marketing has to work within these. We build them into briefs, copy and ad reviews from the start.
Who sets the rules
- Provincial licensing and safety authorities (e.g. TSSA and ESA in Ontario)
What it means for marketing
- Licensed trades should display licence numbers and certifications where provincial rules require it.
Common challenges
- Shared leads from marketplaces that go to several competitors at once
- Seasonal demand swings (heating, cooling, storm season)
- Missed calls when crews are on the job
- Licensing and trust: proving you are qualified and insured
