How Much Are Google Local Services Ads for Roofers?

Roofers set a weekly budget that is derived from the average number of leads they want to receive in that given week. The budget can be modified and in many cases, we’ve had to even decrease budgets because our clients are getting too many qualified leads.

You will be charged for each qualified lead you receive through your Local Services Ad account and any lead received after you’ve reached your monthly max will be credited back to you . Google ensures your firm will never exceed your monthly budget and that you will never pay for leads that aren’t qualified so long as the call is handled correctly.
