Roofing Contractor
Case Study
After nearly 50 years of honest work, we finally have a website that matches our reputation. Figgle didn’t dress us up like some big corporation — they told our real story and put us in front of the homeowners, businesses, and government buyers who actually need us. Phones are booked out.
Roofing Contractor
Case Study
Figgle understood Raleigh from day one. They built a site that ranks for the exact keywords homeowners search, and the quote form stays full. A hundred new customers since launch — we haven’t looked back.
Gutter Contractor
Case Study
I run a small local crew — the last thing I needed was an agency that didn’t understand the trades. Figgle got it right away. Clean site, clear message, easy quotes. Six years of honest work, finally being seen by the right people.
The Problem
Why most roofing “leads” don’t convert
Most NC roofers buy leads from aggregators (HomeAdvisor / Angi, Networx, Modernize, Thumbtack) that resell each lead to 3–5 competitors. Conversion rates run 5–10% on the best days and the cost-per-booked-job creeps up every quarter as the platforms over-saturate.
Lead generation that actually works for NC roofers runs on owned channels — Local Service Ads where Google sells the lead (not a reseller), Google Ads campaigns segmented by repair vs. replacement vs. insurance intent, organic Map Pack visibility that compounds, and a reputation system that closes the loop. Each channel produces its own lead economics and quality signal.
- Aggregator leads (HomeAdvisor, Networx) are resold to 3–5 competitors
- Cost-per-booked-job creeps up every year as platforms over-saturate
- Lead quality drops because pricing pressure forces lowest-bid contractors to win
- No control over which leads you pay for — bad fit and bad scope come through anyway
Channels We Run
Four channels we run together for Roofing lead generation
Four channels we run together — each producing its own lead economics, lead quality signal, and conversion window.
Local Service Ads (LSAs)
Google’s pay-per-lead network. Cheapest cost-per-lead in NC roofing ($30–$80) and sits above the Map Pack on emergency-intent searches.
- Google verification handled (license, insurance, GAF/Owens Corning docs)
- Service-area drawn tight to your real dispatch radius
- Weekly lead-dispute review to remove bad-fit and out-of-area leads
- Volume calibration so you don’t outpace your crew capacity
Google Ads (Paid Search)
Intent-segmented campaigns where you control budget, ad copy, landing pages, and bid strategy — not a reseller in the middle.
- Separate campaigns for repair, replacement, insurance, and commercial roofing
- Storm-event response campaigns pre-built and ready to flip on within 12 hours
- Landing pages tuned to roofing-buyer questions (insurance claim handling, replacement timelines)
- Call tracking back to booked inspections, not form fills
Local SEO + Map Pack
Compounding organic lead flow that drops cost-per-lead 60–80% over time. The expensive channel to launch but the cheapest at scale.
- GBP optimization for roofing-specific categories (residential, commercial, repair, replacement, insurance)
- Neighborhood landing pages for the suburbs your crews actually serve
- Storm-event content published in advance of seasonal demand
- Citation building across 50+ NC roofing-relevant directories
Reviews + Reputation Loop
Closing the conversion loop. Every booked roofing job becomes a review that drives the next lead.
- Post-job review request workflow (text + email, 48-hour cadence)
- Review-response automation for negative feedback (we draft, you approve)
- Photo + video collection from completed jobs feeding GBP signal
- Quarterly review-velocity reporting tied to Map Pack ranking changes
Why Figgle roofing lead generation works differently
We don’t sell roofing leads — we build the system that produces YOUR leads, owned by you, ranked under your domain, attributed to your phone number. Aggregators sell volume; we build durable lead flow that compounds.
Cost-per-lead matters less than lead quality and exclusivity. An LSA lead at $60 that you alone receive converts at 2–4x the rate of an aggregator lead resold to four other roofers, even if the aggregator lead is half the price. We optimize for booked-job math, not lead volume vanity.
Lead generation is a tactical sub-system inside the broader roofing marketing strategy — the website, the trust signals, the conversion paths, the brand. For the full picture, see our roofing marketing hub. This page covers lead generation specifically — the channels, costs, and quality controls.

Roofing Lead Generation Questions
Questions about roofing lead generation
How many leads can I expect per month in North Carolina?
Realistic range: a Roofing contractor running a $1,500–$3,000/month program typically sees 6–14 qualified leads per month after the 90-day ramp. Volume varies with trade ticket size, market depth, and ad budget. We don’t promise specific numbers up front. We promise weekly reporting tied to booked jobs.
How much do roofing leads cost in NC?
Depends on the channel. LSA roofing leads run $30–$80 per lead in most NC markets, with Charlotte at the top of the range. Google Ads cost-per-converted-lead lands $80–$160. Aggregator leads (HomeAdvisor, Networx) appear cheaper at $20–$50 but the resold-to-competitors dynamic drops conversion rates 60–80% so cost-per-booked-job is usually higher.
Are LSA leads better than HomeAdvisor or Angi leads?
Almost always for residential roofing. LSA leads are exclusive (Google sells them once), tied to the searcher’s specific intent, and sit above Map Pack visually. HomeAdvisor / Angi resell each lead to 3–5 contractors, so even at lower per-lead prices the booked-job math is worse. Most NC roofers should run LSAs heavy and aggregators only as a small experiment, if at all.
How do I get more roofing leads in NC?
Run all four channels together: LSAs for cheap exclusive emergency volume, Google Ads for intent-segmented control, Local SEO for compounding cost-efficiency, and a tight review/reputation loop closing the funnel. Most NC roofers leave 40–60% of potential lead flow on the table by running only one or two of these channels. See our roofing marketing strategy for how the full system fits together.
How long until lead generation produces results for an NC roofer?
LSAs and Google Ads produce booked inspections within 1–2 weeks of launch. Local SEO Map Pack movement starts in 60–90 days; competitive organic rankings take 4–7 months. Review velocity compounds over 6–12 months. Most healthy NC roofing lead-gen programs produce meaningful flow inside 30 days and compound for years after.
What’s the right monthly budget for roofing lead generation in NC?
Most healthy NC roofing lead-gen programs run $3K–$10K/mo across all channels. Below ~$2K/mo you can’t generate enough conversion data for Google Ads to learn against. Charlotte CPCs justify higher floor budgets than smaller NC markets. See our pricing for the full breakdown.
