Local SEO for HVAC, Plumbing & Home Service Contractors

    If you test in and test out on every job, this page is for you. If marketing is something you want handled without ever looking at a reading, we are not the right shop and we will say so early.

    We diagnose visibility the way you diagnose a system. Baseline readings first, then the work, then grid readings you can pull up and check yourself. One shop per market. Right-sized to your market, not to our invoice.

    Plans from $697/month. Every price is published.

    We'll run your readings. Then we'll decide together.

    Nobody has ever taken a reading on your visibility

    You pay every month and nobody shows you a number

    Shops doing worse work than you sit above you on the map

    The Packages

    Three rungs, in order. The Mirror Strategy website build is the install. The site gets rebuilt to mirror your Google Business Profile, and nothing downstream works without it. Performance Maintenance at $697 a month is the baseline every business should be running: GBP dialed in and kept dialed, citations built and aligned, reviews answered, and the business verified findable everywhere including AI search. High-Performance Local SEO at $1,497 to $3,497 a month is manual, expanded, continuous local SEO for growth, typically for populations over 100,000 or markets with heavy competition.

    You don't have to figure out which one you need before you call. We run your readings first. Then we decide together, and sometimes the honest answer is the smaller number.

    Website Only

    $500 + $200/page

    $500 homepage, $200 per additional page. Most sites land at 20 to 40 pages ($4,300 to $8,300). Buy outright or lease-to-own. You own the site either way.

    • SEO website on our Mirror Strategy framework
    • On-page SEO, schema, NAP wired to your GBP
    • Service pages built for local intent
    • Lease-to-own available on qualifying builds

    The install. This is the Mirror Strategy build, the foundation everything else runs on. If you never buy another thing from us, a correctly built site is still better than anything else you could do. Website Only is not territory exclusive.

    Baseline

    Performance Maintenance

    $697 / month

    Or $6,970/year. The annual plan includes the base Mirror Strategy website build free (typically 20 to 40 pages, valued at $4,300 to $8,300 at standard page rates). Month-to-month available; add a paid website build or lease-to-own.

    • Google Business Profile optimization
    • Reviews + reputation management
    • Citations + NAP consistency
    • Site indexing + technical monitoring
    • Free 20 to 40 page Mirror Strategy website on the annual plan

    The baseline every business should be running, period. In a lot of markets, especially rural ones, this is all you'll ever need. It is also the right move after High-Performance Local SEO has pushed your rankings as far as Google will allow and you just need to hold what you earned. One shop per service area.

    High-Performance Local SEO

    $1,497 – $3,497 / month

    Most shops start here. $1,497 a month is the typical entry point for the full system. Only extremely packed markets move toward $3,497. This is where we light a fire, make real moves, and position you as the clear leader in your local space. Website free with a 6 or 12 month trial (base 20 to 40 page Mirror Strategy build, valued at $4,300 to $8,300). Month-to-month available; add a paid website build or lease-to-own.

    • Everything in Performance Maintenance
    • Market-specific keyword + territory strategy
    • Continuous on-page + silo build-out
    • Aggressive review velocity + reputation defense
    • Strategy calls + real reporting

    Growth work. Manual, expanded, continuous local SEO for markets that demand it, typically populations over 100,000 or heavy competition. Everything in Performance Maintenance, plus market-specific strategy, continuous silo build-out, and monthly grid readings against your baseline, reviewed together. Territory exclusive, one shop per service area.

    Every Local SEO plan requires an SEO website. Free with qualifying trials and annual plans, or add a paid build. Trials and lease-to-own exist so you can see the readings move before you commit, not because we sell on price. Territories are first come, first served, and your scope is confirmed on the strategy session before anything is signed. Final pricing is right-sized to your market and competition.

    We'll run your readings. Then we'll decide together.

    Grid Tracking Proof From Real Clients

    The Map Pack is the three businesses Google shows under the map. Most people call one of those three and never scroll. The gap between #4 and #3 is the gap between silence and a ringing phone. Plain English version here: ditching the SEO hype.

    We track it on a geographic grid with BrightLocal, the industry standard. Every intersection is a real GPS coordinate. Green means top 3, red means buried, and we share every scan with you. No black boxes. Grid proof is the first thing to demand from any agency, which is exactly what our guide on the 7 questions that expose bad HVAC marketing companies covers.
