Text a photo for a quote
Drywall jobs are easy to quote from a picture. A “text us a photo” button turns more clicks into conversations.

Why it's different
What works for drywall contractors
Homeowners and contractors
Separate campaigns for homeowners and for builders or property managers, because they search and buy differently.
Cut the DIY searches
“How to patch drywall” and “drywall mud” bring a large number of clicks from people who aren't looking to hire. Those searches are blocked.
Win the neighborhood
Small jobs come from close by. Tight radius targeting plus Maps optimization keeps your phone ringing locally.
A real drywall campaign
What Pro-Elite Drywall's Google Ads look like
Three of the ad formats running in the campaign I built for Pro-Elite Dry Wall Services in San Diego, pulled from the Google Ads preview. Google tests each one and puts more of the budget behind the formats that bring in calls.
Each format answers what homeowners want to know before they call a drywall contractor: licensed, local, fast and a free estimate.
Where your next job comes from
Shared leads vs. customers who chose you
Drywall work is fast, local and often urgent: a water leak, a hole, a ceiling that needs to go. That makes where the lead comes from even more important.
Compared side by side
You're one of several
When a homeowner requests a drywall repair on Angi, the same lead goes to several pros at once. On Thumbtack, they usually message a few from a list. On a small repair job, a lead fee you pay whether you win or not takes a big bite out of the margin.
Chosen and called
They picked you
A homeowner with water damage searches, sees your ad and photos of finished repairs, and calls or texts a picture of the wall. It's one conversation with you, and the job can be booked the same day.
Recommended
The closest thing to a referral
Someone asks ChatGPT who removes popcorn ceilings or matches texture near them. When your company is named, they reach out already expecting you to do the work, not to bid against five others.
With smaller jobs, speed and trust win. A customer who found you directly, or was pointed to you, is ready to book.
Tired of being the sub?
Stop working for a cut of your own job.
Two contractors told me the same story. They land the job, do the work, cover the materials and keep 40%, while the company that passed them the lead keeps 60%.
If that sounds familiar, marketing isn't a nice-to-have. It's how you stop being the sub and start being the one homeowners call first.
The Triple Stack
Your business, three times on page one. Same search, same moment.
When Google Ads and an optimized Google Business Profile run together, you can show up three times for the same search: a sponsored Search ad at the top, a sponsored pin in Google Maps, and your organic listing in the Map Pack.
That's what I built for Lemon Grove Stucco. Most of their competitors appear once on that page. Lemon Grove Stucco appears three times.

Francisco at Planet Marketing was fantastic to work with! He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and quick to respond. He took the time to thoroughly analyze my marketing needs and clearly explain his services and the entire process. He also provided pricing right away, which I really appreciated. I’m still at the beginning of my search for marketing services, but Francisco has already made an excellent impression. He clearly knows his business and genuinely cares about providing great customer service. I highly recommend Francisco and Planet Marketing for all your marketing needs!

Questions
Questions drywall contractors ask me
Are drywall jobs too small for Google Ads?
Not if the campaign is tight. Small jobs come in high volume and close fast, and popcorn ceiling, water damage and new construction work raise the average ticket. Tracking shows exactly which searches pay off.
Can you help me get work from contractors too?
Yes. I can run a separate campaign aimed at builders, remodelers and property managers, with its own message and landing page.
How quickly will I start getting calls?
Most well-built home service campaigns produce calls in the first 1–2 weeks. The first month is about learning which searches turn into jobs. By month two, call volume and cost per lead usually improve noticeably.
Is there a contract?
No. Everything is month-to-month. Google Ads takes 60–90 days to fully optimize, so I ask that you give it that long before judging, but you're never locked in.
