Google Business Profile management
A Google profile that looks alive. Because it is.
Google Business Profile management for contractors and local service businesses anywhere in the United States — $500 to rebuild it properly, $200 a month to keep somebody actually tending it. Run out of Stephens City, Virginia, for crews whose customers are searching down the road.
Why it matters more than your website
When somebody searches "roofer near me," they see your Google profile before your website.
The map pack sits above the search results. Most people who need a contractor today never scroll past it.
Which means your Google Business Profile is doing the first round of selling whether you maintain it or not. Photos from 2014, hours that were right two years ago, a category that says "Contractor" instead of "Roofing Contractor," three reviews with no replies — that's the impression you're making before anyone reaches your site.
A profile that's actively tended does the opposite. It answers the questions people were about to ask, shows recent work, and demonstrates that somebody's paying attention. That's a low-cost advantage most of your competitors are leaving on the table.
Local search behaviour figures cited on our home page come from Google consumer insights and the BrightLocal Local Consumer Review Survey.
The Setup
& The
Upkeep
One price to fix it properly. One price to keep it that way. Both published before you ever call.
Month-to-month terms are confirmed in your project agreement. Google controls rankings — no agency can promise positions, including us.
The $500 setup: a full rebuild of how Google sees you
Most profiles were set up in ten minutes years ago and never touched again. We rebuild yours properly: verified info, the right categories, complete service lists, a description that sells, photos that look professional, and answers to the questions customers actually ask.
- Full profile audit & cleanup
- Correct categories & service areas
- Complete services list with details
- Business description that sells
- Photo organization & upload
- Q&A seeded with real questions
The $200/month: somebody actually tending it
An active profile tells Google — and customers — that you're open, busy, and paying attention. A dead one says the opposite. Every month, yours gets:
- Fresh posts every week
- Every review answered promptly
- New photos & project updates
- Hours & info kept accurate
- Spam & edit monitoring
- Plain-English monthly recap
Why the review responses matter most
A reply from the owner is the one part of a profile that can't be faked by a ten-minute setup. It shows every future customer that somebody's home — including on the two-star review, where a calm, specific reply does more for you than the review costs you.
We draft responses in your voice and send anything sensitive to you before it posts. Your name is on it, so you get the last word.
What service-area accuracy actually does
If you drive to four towns but your profile lists one, you've quietly narrowed how Google understands your business. If you list forty towns you'd like to work in, you've done something worse — Google's guidelines are explicit that service areas should reflect where you actually serve customers, and stuffing them is a known way to get a profile suspended. We set service areas and categories to match where you genuinely work. That's the honest version of local SEO for contractors, and it's the only version that survives contact with Google's own rules.
What we won't do
- Won't promise a map-pack position — proximity to the searcher is part of Google's calculation and nobody controls that
- Won't create fake reviews or review-gate your customers
- Won't list service areas you don't actually serve
- Won't hold your profile hostage — the account stays yours
Found is only half of it.
The profile gets you found. Then they tap through to your website and decide. If yours was built in 2016, that's where the momentum dies — see what a $2,500 contractor website includes, or weigh both on the services and pricing page.
Profile questions
Before you hand over the keys.
Three specific to profile management. Pricing, timelines and service area are on the FAQ page.
Then we create and verify one — that's part of the $500. Verification is Google's process, not ours, and it usually means a postcard, a video call or a phone code depending on how they classify your business. We prepare everything so it passes the first time.
Profile completeness and accuracy improve immediately — that part is in our control. Calls, direction requests and messages are the numbers worth watching, and they typically move over weeks rather than days as activity accumulates. Your monthly recap shows those figures straight from Google, including the flat months.
