Most contractors set Local Service Ads on autopilot and watch fake leads drain their budget. We don't. We dispute bad leads weekly, optimize bids daily, and coordinate LSA + Google Ads as one strategy — built around five years of running home services accounts.
Sound Familiar?
You're paying $50-$80 per lead. Half of them are wrong-number wrong-zip-code wrong-job-type junk. You don't have time to dispute them. Your "agency" sets it up once and never touches it again. The leads keep getting worse.
Most agencies turn LSAs on, set a weekly budget, and walk away. Bidding never gets optimized. Bad leads never get disputed. Reviews don't get responded to. You're paying for a service that nobody's actually managing.
Google gives credits for legitimately bad leads — wrong service area, wrong job type, spam calls, no-answer hang-ups. But disputes have to be filed within 14 days, with the right evidence. Most agencies file zero disputes per month. Your CPL stays high.
Your LSA agency runs LSAs. Your Google Ads agency runs Google Ads. Neither knows what the other is doing. You bid against yourself in the auction, your messaging is inconsistent, and the two channels don't reinforce each other.
Your LSA ranking is heavily tied to review count and average rating. One bad review can drop you 3 positions overnight. Most agencies don't have a review-generation system, don't respond to reviews, and don't dispute false ones.
Real Client Data
Same Google Guaranteed badge. Same LSA platform. The difference is whether someone's actively managing your account or letting it run on autopilot.
When LSAs are actively managed for a home services contractor, three things happen that drive CPL down significantly:
Lead disputes recover credits. Roughly 15-25% of LSA leads in home services are disputable — wrong service area, wrong job type, spam, or no-answer ghost calls. We file disputes weekly. Google credits the bad leads back. Your effective CPL drops.
Bid optimization beats default settings. LSA's default bid strategy underperforms in most home services markets. We adjust bids based on time-of-day patterns, weekday vs weekend conversion data, and competitor density.
Review management lifts ranking. A systematic review generation campaign + active response to incoming reviews = higher LSA placement = lower CPL. Compounds over months.
The numbers on the right are real cost-per-qualified-lead figures from accounts we manage today — across LSA, Google Ads, or both combined. Most are well below industry averages.

What's Included
Built specifically for home services contractors using Google Local Service Ads. Every lever pulled, every week, by an operator who's been doing this for five years.
Every lead reviewed within 48 hours. Disputable leads flagged and filed with Google. Credits recovered and applied back to your account. Most contractors recover 15-25% of LSA spend through disputes alone.
Daily bid adjustments based on time-of-day conversion patterns, weekday vs weekend data, and competitor density. We don't use Google's default "Maximize Leads" — we manage Manual bidding and dynamic adjustments.
Systematic outreach to recent customers asking for reviews. More 5-star reviews = higher LSA ranking = more leads at lower CPL. We've built this into a repeatable system over five years.
Every review responded to within 24 hours — positive and negative. Public, professional, on-brand responses that signal trust to future customers. Bad reviews disputed when warranted.
Most contractors set their service area too wide and their service categories too narrow (or vice versa). We optimize both based on where your highest-LTV jobs come from and where competition is thinnest.
If we're running both your Google Ads and LSAs, we coordinate them. No bidding against yourself. Consistent messaging across channels. The combined strategy that beats either channel alone.
License updates, insurance verification, background check renewals — all the maintenance work that keeps your Google Guaranteed badge active. Most agencies don't track this. We do.
Three numbers that matter: qualified leads, cost per qualified lead after disputes, and ranking position. Plus a monthly call with the operator running your account. No black-box reports.
The Specialist Edge
LSAs are the lowest-CPL lead channel in home services — but only if someone's actually managing them. Here's what active management actually does.
15-25% of LSA leads in home services are disputable. Filed weekly with proper evidence, those credits come back to your account. Over a year, that's thousands of recovered dollars most agencies never claim.
LSA ranking is heavily review-weighted. A systematic review-generation campaign means 5-15 new 5-star reviews per month. Six months in, you're outranking competitors who started with the same budget.
Default bid strategies leave money on the table. We see your conversion data by hour, by day, by service category — and bid accordingly. Same budget, more qualified leads.
Case Study
The office manager called us thinking we were spamming the form. They weren't being spammed — they were just getting more qualified leads in 30 days than they had in any prior 6-month stretch. They've hit a record month every month since.
Real Contractors. Real Results.
"I was skeptical because I've been promised a lot by other companies and gotten screwed over. But Brands That Last over delivered on everything. Seeing the leads come in each month continues to blow me away."
"The amount of times I've been lied to by digital marketing agencies is too many to count. They built trust slowly by actually doing what they said. Now we're getting the most leads we've ever gotten for our pool renovation company."
"Our website took 10 seconds to load and they fixed it fast. Then they set up proper tracking, fixed our landing pages, and the leads started pouring in. These guys go above and beyond for us."
