Meta Ads

Facebook and Instagram ads for plumbers.

Facebook and Instagram do best with plumbing work people can plan, like a new water heater, a tankless upgrade, a repipe or a yearly plan. Homeowners in the towns you serve see your own techs and a clear price, and we track each lead through to a booked job.

“Very efficient and easy to work with.”

What we see

The plumbing jobs that sell on Facebook.

Three jobs we'd advertise first.

Water heater swaps with a price on the ad.

A lot of people have no idea what a new water heater costs, so they put off asking. An ad with an installed price range or a monthly payment, next to a photo of your tech, gets them to ask for a quote.

Plans that put members first in line.

A yearly plan with a drain check, a water heater flush and priority service is easy to explain in an ad. When a pipe bursts, members already have your number.

People who checked your price and left.

Repipes and tankless installs take a while to decide, and many people get two or three quotes. Retargeting keeps your reviews and guarantee in front of the people who visited those pages.

What we do

What we do.

Offers and ads made in house, tracked through to booked jobs.

Offers and ads

01
  • Offers built around planned work, like water heater swaps, tankless upgrades and plans
  • Photos and video of your own techs, vans and finished installs, made in house
  • One message tested at a time: the problem, the price, a review or your guarantee
  • Winning ads remade in new formats before people tire of them

Tracking

02
  • Conversions API set up on your server, without double counting the pixel
  • Booked jobs sent back from your CRM, so Meta looks for more people who book
  • Calls from the ads recorded, with calls of 60 seconds or more counted as leads

Who sees them

03
  • Ads shown only in the towns your techs already drive to
  • Retargeting for people who looked at your water heater, repipe or plan pages
  • A small number of campaigns, so each one gets enough leads to learn from
In the account

Water heater ads, tested against each other.

This account is testing six openings for one offer: a hidden leak, a tech on the job, a review, no surprise fees, financing and a guarantee. The photo of a real tech is winning, so it gets a third of the budget. The two that are slipping get replaced next.

Not many. People with a burst pipe search Google. On Meta the budget goes to water heaters, repipes and plans.
