    How we can help

    Show the finished work, then win the site visit.

    SoudCoh plans Google Ads, websites and SEO for builders and construction trades, from extensions and renovations to roofing and exterior painting. Our published work in this group so far is roofing and painting work, for businesses such as Sydney Fence Painting, Cornerstone Roofing and Aussie Roofing, rather than general building. The plan separates project types, shows genuine finished work and follows each enquiry through to the quote and the signed job.

    What your customer needs to decide

    • Does the business take on this type and size of project?
    • Can they show finished work like mine, close to where I live?
    • What do the site visit, quote and contract involve?
    • When could the work start, and what affects the timing?

    Choose the services your plan needs

    1. SEO for project types and building services

      Build a page for each project type you want, such as extensions, renovations, new homes, roofing or painting. Explain the scope, the steps from site visit to handover and the areas you work in, using genuine finished projects as the proof.

      • Project-type page structure
      • Process and scope FAQs
      Explore SEO services

    2. Google Ads by project type

      Keep larger projects apart from repairs and smaller jobs, so each gets a fitting message and budget. Match campaign areas to where your crews can build, and exclude job-seeker, supplier, equipment-hire and how-to searches.

      • Project and service campaign groups
      • Area and irrelevant-search review
      Explore Google Ads

    3. A website that shows finished work

      Present real projects with the type of work, the suburb and what was involved. Make it easy to call or request a site visit from a phone, and ask for the project type, location and timing in a short form.

      • Real project pages
      • Site-visit and quote request form
      Explore website design

    4. Local visibility where you build

      Review business details, service areas and genuine customer reviews. Add finished project photos to the profile, and keep contact details and service areas consistent everywhere the business is listed.

      • Business profile and service-area review
      • Project photo and review presentation
      Explore local SEO

    5. Follow enquiries to the quote and the signed job

      Building decisions take time, so record each enquiry’s project type, area and progress. Review which campaigns lead to site visits, quotes and signed work, and move spend toward those.

      • Project enquiry brief
      • Site visit, quote and contract review
      Improve enquiry quality

    Services your plan can cover

    About Construction Businesses

    1 What you need

    Our speciality: Google and Meta ads that bring in paying customers. We measure cost per job, not cost per click.

    2 Your ad spend

    Spending A$5,000 a month or more on ads? That's who we work with — up to A$30,000 a day, and enterprise programmes above that.

    We recommend a minimum of A$5,000 a month in ad spend for most businesses. That's what you pay Google or Meta for your ads — not your revenue. Our management fee is separate.

    Think in daily budgets? About A$165 a day is A$5,000 a month.

    3 Your business

    We look at it before we reply. No website yet? A Facebook page or Google Business Profile link works too.

    What would make this worth it? A sentence or two is plenty.

    Where the money goes.

    Most construction businesses hit the same walls, and not one of them shows up in a cost-per-click report. This is what we find when we open the account.

    1. Extensions, renovations and repairs are different searches

      Someone pricing a second-storey extension and someone with a leaking roof need different ads, pages and questions. One campaign for everything hides which projects are worth the spend.

    2. The quote takes a while, so the click gets forgotten

      Building decisions run through site visits and comparing quotes. Calls and forms need to be followed to the quote and the signed job, or the account chases cheap enquiries that never proceed.

    3. You are paying for job-seeker, supplier and DIY searches

      Construction searches attract people looking for trade jobs, materials, equipment hire and how-to advice. We list the searches we will not pay for before launch and keep reviewing the search terms.

    4. Past projects are hard to find on the website

      Customers want to see finished work like theirs: the project type, the suburb and what was involved. A gallery with no context does little to earn the site visit.

    5. The ads reach further than your crews travel

      Ads should run where you can build profitably. We match campaign areas to the suburbs and regions your crews can reach and the size of job worth the drive.

    04 stages

    How we bring the work in.

    Campaigns are created paused, every time. You read the whole build before a dollar moves — that is a rule we hold ourselves to, not a favour.

    1. Stage 01

      Choose the projects and the areas

      We agree the work you want more of — extensions, renovations, new homes, roofing, painting or commercial fit-outs — and the areas and crew capacity behind it.

    2. Stage 02

      Build pages that show real projects

      Each priority service gets a page with genuine project photos, the scope involved and a simple way to request a site visit or quote.

    3. Stage 03

      Launch paused, you approve

      Every keyword, ad and page is built before a dollar is spent. You review the whole build and switch it on when you are ready.

    4. Stage 04

      Follow enquiries to signed work

      We review calls, forms, quotes and won jobs by project type and area, then move spend toward the projects that turn into signed work.

    Campaigns are built paused. You read the whole thing first.

    Send us what you are running now and we will put a 30-day plan for construction businesses in writing. You keep it either way.

    Before you book a call.

    The questions construction businesses ask us most often, answered straight.

    The first call is free and there is no deck.

    SoudCoh takes on builders and construction trades, planning Google Ads, websites and SEO from its Melbourne office. Our published work in this group so far is roofing and painting work, for businesses such as Sydney Fence Painting, Cornerstone Roofing and Aussie Roofing, rather than general building. For a builder, the plan starts with the project types you want, such as extensions, renovations, new homes or commercial work, and the areas you build in.

    For a builder or construction trade, SoudCoh's plan starts with Google Search ads split by project type, a website that shows finished projects with the scope and suburb, an accurate Google Business Profile with genuine reviews, and tracking of calls and forms through to quotes and signed jobs. Building decisions take longer than a one-off repair, so we judge the plan by the quotes and signed work it produces, not by clicks.

    SoudCoh is based in Melbourne, with one office at West Tower, Level 4/608 St Kilda Rd, Melbourne, and takes on builders and construction trades there and across Australia. The construction-trade work published so far is listed on this page, with where each business is based.

    SoudCoh's advice for a builder's website is to build it around genuine finished projects: each one shows the project type, the suburb and what the work involved, with consistent before-and-after photos where you have them. That lets a customer find work like theirs and request a site visit. Publish licence, insurance and warranty details only as your business actually holds them.

    Explore the approach for other industries.
