Plumber SEO: more plumbing calls from Google Maps

When a pipe bursts or a drain backs up, people search “plumber near me” and call a plumber from the map. We set up and run your Google Business Profile so your business shows up there, in the areas you serve.

What we do

  • Set “Plumber” as your main category, plus drain or water heater categories only if you do that work
  • List your jobs in words customers use: emergency plumbing, drain cleaning, leak repair, water heater repair, toilet and pipe repair
  • Hide your home address and list the areas you serve, as Google’s rules require
  • Keep your hours accurate, including emergency and holiday hours
  • Add real photos of your vans, team and finished jobs
  • List you on Apple Maps, Bing, Yelp and local directories with the same details everywhere
  • Ask every customer for a Google review after the job
  • Post to your profile every week and send a monthly report with your calls, direction requests and rank map

What we won’t do

No fake addresses to show up in more areas, no bought reviews and no “24/7 emergency plumber” stuffed into your business name. Those break Google’s rules and can get a profile suspended.

What it costs

$299 a month, or $499 a month with a website. 3-month minimum, then month to month. If your calls from Google haven’t doubled by month 3, we work for free until they do. See the plans, what’s included and the guarantee terms.

Questions plumbers ask

Should I show “open 24 hours” on Google?

Only if someone really answers the phone at any hour. Missed night calls turn into bad reviews, and Google expects your hours to be accurate.

Do I have to show my home address on Google?

No. If customers don’t come to your address, Google’s rules say to hide it and list the areas you serve instead. We set that up.

How long until I get more plumbing calls?

Setup takes one month. Calls build over the next few months, which is why there’s a 3-month minimum.
