The problem

Most jobs came from referrals: plumbers, agents, property managers, and a local networking group. That part of the business was healthy.

Google was the weak spot. The website had one page for the whole territory. It had no page for mold or fire work. It had no pages for the towns customers search from. One national competitor held the first page of Google for 85 of the 86 searches that matter in this market.

The strategy

We worked on three things together. All of them aimed at the same searches.

New website pages

We wrote 13 new pages. They cover mold, fire damage, sewage cleanup, flood and storm recovery, crawlspaces, and the towns customers search from. By November the company showed 1st on Google for “mold removal chester county” and 2nd for “basement flood cleanup chester county”. None of those pages existed before July.

The Google Business Profile

A Google Business Profile is the listing with the map, photos, and reviews that shows when someone looks up a company. Most Google calls in this market come from the map. We kept the profile current with photos, services, and service areas. It has a 5.0 rating on more than 100 reviews.

Google Ads and Local Services Ads

Ads put the company at the top of the page while the new pages moved up. Local Services Ads are the listings at the very top of a local search. We raised that budget only after the calls proved good. In August, 9 of 11 Local Services calls were real leads. In October it was 27 of 33.

The results

From January to July 2026, Google customers brought 22 jobs. The same months of 2025 brought 16. The jobs were bigger too. In June and July 2026, 10 jobs were worth $31,710. In June and July 2025, 2 jobs were worth $3,009.

What these numbers do not say

The 2026 revenue is still filling in. Of the 148 jobs logged through July, 109 had an invoice when this was written. The 2026 numbers may end higher.

Total calls from January to October were about the same both years: 1,498 in 2025 and 1,491 in 2026. More of the calls turned into work.

The website gets few clicks. Google customers come through the map and the Business Profile. The national competitor still holds most of the first page.

In the owner’s words

“We got 30 leads, which is pretty good. 14 of them, so almost half… was defined as SEO… I don’t know what you did, but pretty good if you ask me.”
