Google Ads for plumbers. Bring in the work you want.
Quips manages Google Ads for plumbing companies, from urgent repair calls to water-heater estimates. We connect campaigns, landing pages and available job records so you can see what your spend is bringing in.
AI helps us analyze search activity and prepare improvements. Our marketers review the findings, make agreed changes and explain the next priority. Your team supplies the business facts and confirms what happened to the leads.
Choose the jobs and coverage.
We map your accepted repairs, drain services and installations to the searches you want to reach. We review existing campaigns, service areas, answering hours and the work your plumbers have room for.
For local coverage, we consider Google’s Presence targeting option. Location signals are imperfect, so the actual job address still matters.
Build the ads and the inquiry path.
We prepare service-specific ad copy, review keyword and match-type choices, and select a useful landing page. We check phone and form delivery and the conversion actions used for reporting and bidding.
A phone-button click, answered call and qualified plumbing inquiry are different events. We check for duplicated or misleading conversion goals before relying on them.
Adjust the account to what we learn.
We review search terms, exclusions, ad messages and lead quality. Budget and bidding changes are weighed against conversion data, job mix and capacity, with approvals defined in your scope.
Report the work and the next decision.
We explain the changes made, spend, available qualified inquiries and matched job outcomes. A rise in cheap calls is not enough if they are outside your area or for work you do not take.
We agree a review schedule before we start.
A leak. A blocked drain. A new water heater.
Three different reasons to call. We match the search, message and next step to the plumbing work you actually want.
Leaks & urgent repairs
Reach the caller your team can help now.
A burst pipe and a dripping faucet do not create the same urgency. We align repair ads, call assets and schedules with the work you accept and the hours someone can answer. Emergency claims must match your real dispatch capacity.
“plumber jobs near me”
We review recruitment searches for exclusion so the ad budget reaches customers looking for plumbing help.
Answering capacity sets the opportunity.

Need a plumber for a leak?
Tell us the problem and your location. Check service coverage and the next available repair appointment.
Ask about repair availability
After the click
We make coverage, answering hours and the call action easy to find. The page explains how your office confirms availability.
What counts as progress
Your office confirms the address, problem and availability. We distinguish accepted repair inquiries from missed calls and out-of-area requests.
Drain cleaning & sewer work
Match the problem to the service you provide.
A slow kitchen drain, a main-line blockage and a sewer replacement need different conversations. We group searches by the services you offer, with separate budget controls where volume and job priorities justify them.
“drain cleaner”
This could mean a product or a service. We check the inquiries before excluding searches that could bring plumbing work.
Service fit before a bigger campaign.

Blocked drain? Let’s find the cause.
Tell us which drain is backing up. Check service coverage and arrange an assessment.
Ask about drain service
After the click
We explain which drains you service and how you assess a blockage. Camera inspections or hydro jetting appear only if you offer them.
What counts as progress
We review booked drain visits separately from inspections and quoted sewer projects, using the service and address your office records.
Water-heater replacements
Turn replacement research into an estimate request.
We distinguish installation searches from parts shopping and repair. The ads reflect the tank, tankless, gas and electric systems your plumbers install.
“water heater installation cost”
Price research can lead to an installation. We review the resulting estimates and jobs before excluding cost-related searches.
Leave time for estimates to become jobs.

Discuss the right replacement for your home. Share your current heater and arrange an installation estimate.
Request an estimate
After the click
We explain your estimate process and ask about heater type, ZIP code and timing. Any financing, warranty or disposal details come from your verified offer.
What counts as progress
Using available job records, we follow estimate requests through assessments, accepted quotes and completed installations.
Illustrative searches and ad concepts, not customer results or final Google ad assets. Separate campaigns need a reason: budget control, sufficient volume or different job priorities.
The right ad. The right next step.
We connect each campaign to a useful destination. That may mean improving your current service page or designing and building a dedicated landing page for an agreed offer.
Write and design around the search.
We carry the ad’s service and offer into the headline, coverage details and next step. For a leak, that means a clear call action and real answering hours. For a water heater, it means explaining how to arrange an estimate.
Test the path to your office.
We check the mobile layout, phone links, form routing, confirmation messages and agreed tracking. Your real reviews, photos and verified credentials help homeowners decide.
Improve the page with evidence.
Where ongoing page work is included, we use inquiry quality and conversion data to choose the next change. We run comparisons when traffic supports a useful test.
Tell us about your current heater. Let’s plan your installation estimate.

Here is how a search-term finding can become a focused campaign change. Quips reviews search intent and available inquiry records before choosing an exclusion, then checks whether suitable drain inquiries improve.
Read the search intent.

Illustrative review, not a customer result. An ambiguous search alone does not prove bad intent. Negative keyword choices depend on observed terms, match type and the services you sell.
See what happened after the estimate.
A campaign can generate water-heater inquiries without producing installations. We use available inquiry and job records to separate a suitable request, a booked assessment and paid work.
Work with the records you already keep.
For ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro or another system, we confirm the available access, matching method and agreed setup. Team-supplied records can also support the review. Your office records job type, service address, booking status and why work was declined or canceled.
Where setup, consent and matching allow, offline conversion measurement can return qualified-lead or job outcomes to Google Ads. We agree which outcomes should guide bidding and avoid counting the same job twice. Unmatched records stay unattributed.
Follow a water-heater estimate.
Campaign & landing page
The homeowner requests a replacement estimate. Available source information determines whether we can match it to a campaign.
Your office qualifies the request
Confirm the address, heater type and timing. Record whether an assessment was booked or the request was declined.
The job record closes the loop
Keep quoted, accepted, installed and paid stages separate. Record cancellations and actual job value where available.
Use the reason, not just the count. If suitable estimates stall, review price expectations, appointment availability and follow-up before adding more ad spend.
Illustrative workflow, not reported customer outcomes or a promise of a particular CRM integration.
A budget tied to the work you want.
A drain visit and a water-heater installation leave different amounts after labor, materials and travel. We review acquisition costs by job type, including the inquiries that never turn into paid work.
Start with the jobs you can take and the margin available to win them. Keep room for estimate follow-up and cancellations. Our management fee and Google’s advertising charges are separate.

What to bring to the conversation
Accepted plumbing services, supported water heaters and the ZIP codes you cover.
The repair, drain or installation appointments you have room for.
Your website, current ad setup and the hours someone answers inquiries.
Your budget and any inquiry or job records you already have.
Bring what you have. We’ll discuss any gaps.
Talk through the opportunity.
We discuss your priorities, current marketing and tools, then whether Google Ads management is a good fit and what needs a closer look.
Agree the work and responsibilities.
Before work begins, the scope sets out deliverables, access, approvals, communication, ownership and fees. We agree the starting ad spend separately, along with any landing-page or tracking setup work.
Provide access. Confirm the starting point.
We review the account and tracking with the agreed access, identify setup gaps and establish the first priorities. Your office confirms how inquiries will be handled and which job records are available.
Start with the service you need. A full website rebuild is not a requirement.
How much should a plumbing company spend on Google Ads?
There is no useful budget that fits every market. Start with your available appointments, job margin and observed lead-to-job rate, then compare that with local search demand and costs. Quips fees and Google ad spend are separate. Use our budget guide and worksheet to work through the numbers.
Can we advertise only drains or water heaters?
Yes. The plan can focus on the services you want to grow. We confirm the accepted jobs and equipment first, then choose campaign and ad-group boundaries that give useful control without splitting a small budget too far.
Can you take over an existing plumbing PPC account?
We can review your existing account, conversion setup and destinations with the agreed access. We look at what is bringing suitable inquiries before changing structure or bidding. Ownership, permissions and any setup work are covered in your scope.
Do we need a new website?
Not necessarily. A useful existing service page may be the right destination. If the ad promises a specific plumbing service that your site does not explain well, we can agree targeted page improvements or a dedicated landing page.
Does Quips manage Local Services Ads too?
Yes, as a separately agreed service. Google Search ads charge for clicks; LSA charges for leads and has its own eligibility and lead-management rules. We keep their spend and outcomes separate. Explore Local Services Ads.
Will you connect our CRM and report booked jobs?
We first confirm access, available records and a reliable way to match inquiries. ServiceTitan, Housecall Pro or team-supplied records may support that work. Connection methods and reporting are scoped to your setup; unmatched jobs stay unattributed. See the job-record workflow.
Should plumbing ads run around the clock?
Only if your offer and response process support it. A company with verified overnight coverage can plan for urgent calls. Otherwise, we align call assets, ads and after-hours messaging with your real availability instead of implying 24/7 dispatch.
How soon will this bring more plumbing jobs?
We agree the launch requirements after reviewing your account, pages and tracking. Demand, competition, budget and your response all affect results. There is no guaranteed lead volume or timetable, and booked visits still need to become completed, paid work.
