Best Contractor SEO Companies in 2026: 12 Agencies and Their Prices

Disclosure first: Skill Mammoth sells contractor SEO services and we are ranked first below, so read our entry with the skepticism you would bring to anyone's. Every other contractor SEO company here is a real competitor, named and linked, with its price quoted from its own page.

The search results deserve the same skepticism. First Page Sage sits second for "contractor SEO agency" with a ranked list that puts itself first and prints no prices. We put ourselves first too. What we add is a table where every row carries a printed number or the words "no price printed."

If you want the strategy before the shortlist, the contractor SEO guide covers the six pillars and the 90-day plan. The wider picture, budget and channels included, is in contractor marketing. This page is for the owner who has decided to hire it out.

How we ranked each contractor SEO company

We read every agency's own pages on November 12, 2026 and ranked on four things, in order:

1. Whether the price is printed. An agency that prints its number is telling you how it sells. Ten of the twelve do.
2. Whether the shop knows contracting. A plumber's emergency call and a remodeler's kitchen project are different search problems, and the agency should know which one you are before it quotes.
3. The contract. A 12-month term should make you ask what happens at month four if nothing has moved.
4. The revenue band each agency is built for. Three of the twelve state it outright. The rest reveal it in their prices.

Two agencies on page one today are left off the numbered list. Periscope Media (fifth) and Blue Media (seventh) print no price. Their own pages list contractors as one market among many. Ask either for a number in writing if a search led you to them.

The twelve contractor SEO companies, compared

The verdict row is the short form of the company-size section further down. Remodelers should add Contractor Growth Network to the mid-size shortlist, and a one-crew budget should start with Footbridge.

One abbreviation in the price column needs a line. AEO is answer engine optimization, the work of getting a business cited in AI answers. Some agencies call the same work GEO, generative engine optimization.

1. Skill Mammoth (ours)

Ours, so weigh it. We build websites and run marketing for contractors and home service businesses. The plans with SEO come in two printed tiers, both month to month with no setup fee.

Growth at $750 a month covers:

• Weekly management of your Google Business Profile, the listing Google shows in Search and Maps.
• Citations (directory listings) on Yelp, Angi, BBB and 20-plus local directories.
• LocalBusiness and Service schema, the code that labels your pages for Google.
• Two answer-first posts a month.
• An automated post-job review request system, with responses to every review.
• A baseline ChatGPT, Perplexity and AI Overviews visibility setup. AI Overviews are Google's AI-written summaries at the top of the results.

Authority at $1,500 adds:

• Up to five new city and neighborhood pages a month, each a page for one place you serve.
• Curated authority placements.
• Four to six posts.
• A competitor gap analysis.
• A monthly strategy call.

Essentials at $350 covers the website and call tools without SEO. The site is $3,000, or $150 a month for 24 months, owned outright and included with every plan.

The fit is a residential contractor from owner-operator to about $5 million that wants local SEO, a review engine and a website built by the same team that ranks it. That is our local SEO service.

The honest limitation is size. We are a small team, founded in 2023, with a residential focus. A $20 million multi-market operation with an in-house marketing director belongs with RYNO or Built-Right's Pro tier.

2. Built-Right Digital

A home-services agency that prints the clearest tier ladder on this list and sorts it by your revenue.

The pricing page prints "Month-to-month, no long-term contracts." Launch is the first tier with off-page work, meaning links from other sites. Scale is the first with paid ads management.

Stand-alone plans are printed too:

• Local SEO at $499 a month. It covers keywords for the map pack (the block of business listings Google shows above the results), citations and Google Business Profile management.
• SEO Plus at $3,499.
• AEO/AIO at $2,999.
• Google Ads management at $999.
• Local Services Ads, Google's ad listings above the map pack, at $499.

One caution. A "Compare Plans" table lower on the same page lists the tiers at $1,199, $2,099, $4,199 and $19,999 with no explanation, so get the current figure in writing.

The pricing page lists home service trades such as roofers, plumbers and bathroom remodelers. General contractors and builders are not on that list, so ask about fit before the demo.

3. Footbridge Media

The floor of the market, and an honest one: "Just $249/Month" with a custom contractor website included, month to month, with a 90-day money-back guarantee.

The program at that price is a website with unlimited pages, organic SEO and Google Business Profile management, plus blog and service content. The trade list runs from general contractors and remodelers to septic and pressure washing.

The page's own comparison table puts "Other Agencies" at "$5,000+." That gap tells you what the program is: a starter site with basic SEO, which is what a one-crew contractor needs before buying anything bigger.

The page also answers the ownership question. It says Footbridge does not hold sites hostage and will help you take the site with you if you cancel.

4. 1Digital Agency

The most detailed menu here, from an agency whose contractor page says it has sold contractor marketing since 2012. It also ranks tenth for "contractor SEO agency" today.

On the SEO pricing page, standard local retainers, which are flat monthly fees, come in five tiers:

• Launch, $899 a month.
• Essential, $1,599.
• Pro, $2,499.
• Plus, $3,299.
• Premium, $4,499.

Retainers run a six-month initial term and then go month to month, with no separate onboarding invoice. Work outside scope is $185 an hour.

For local businesses on its WorkspaceCMS platform, local campaigns run $499, $699 or $999 a month on top of a site plan from $89, also on a six-month commitment.

The contractor page names general contractors outright, covering custom homes, additions, whole-house remodels and commercial buildouts. The platform campaigns require an active WorkspaceCMS site plan, so ask what you take with you if you leave.

One thing to confirm. The contractor page prints a three-month initial term for agency engagements, and the pricing page prints six.

5. Comrade Digital Marketing

Comrade prints a starting point for every line on its pricing page:

• Local SEO from $1,500 a month.
• Organic SEO and AI Optimization from $3,000.
• The full Revenue Engine from $4,000, with ad budget paid to Google and Facebook on top.
• PPC (pay-per-click ads) management from $1,450.
• Website design and development from $599 a month.

The term sits between a contract and month to month. The page says "We recommend a minimum 12-month commitment for SEO-based strategies," so ask whether that minimum is written into the agreement or only into the pitch.

The fit is an established contractor that wants a full program with the price stated before the call. At $1,500 for local work alone, a one-crew shop is better served by the cheaper entries above.

6. Hook Agency

The best-known name in contractor marketing, based in Minneapolis. Its contractor SEO page says it works with no one besides contractors and home service businesses. Local SEO + AEO starts at $3,750 a month.

The rest of the printed menu:

• Google Ads plus Local Services Ads from $2,000 a month.
• Meta ads from $3,000.
• Websites at $1,000 or $2,000 a month over 12 months, only alongside a recurring service.

The pricing page says "Most Hook clients invest $5,000 to $8,000 a month across search, paid ads and their website." The SEO page says Hook is usually the best fit for "growth-mode contractors over 2M+."

The form on that page goes further. Its revenue menu labels "Under $1M" as "Not a Fit at This Time," which is the clearest statement of fit on this list.

The pricing page prints "You own your website 100%." It prints no contract term and no setup fee, so ask for both.

7. Contractor Growth Network

Third for "contractor SEO agency" today and based in Charlotte, this one is plain about who it serves: "Our clients are typically $2M-$7M remodeling firms who want to grow beyond referrals." SEO is priced by the size of your market.

Every tier includes Google Business and AI search optimization, technical SEO and citations management. The commitment is 12 months, then month to month. The page says SEO needs that long "to build real authority that Google and AI tools trust."

The timeline is the most candid on this list. The page says to expect "a trickle of leads (1-3/month) around Month 9" and meaningful lead flow around the 12-month mark.

Websites start at $15,000 and average about $26,000, paid over the first six months. The client is a design-build remodeler selling $100,000 kitchens, which rules out most service trades.

8. Blue Corona, now RYNO

First for "contractor SEO agency" today, and no longer a stand-alone company. The page states "Blue Corona and RYNO Strategic Solutions have merged," with the combined shop operating under the RYNO brand.

The contractor SEO page prints ranges in place of plans:

• A website audit first, with a typical range of $2,500 to $3,500.
• Ongoing SEO from "$2,000 per month on the low end to $10,000 (or more) per month on the high end."

The page's own worked example uses $5,000 a month. Its construction SEO page adds "You don't have to worry about long-term contracts" and "You'll own every single deliverable."

RYNO's own site prints no price and says it partners with residential contractors in the United States and Canada. The fit is a multi-market company with someone in-house to read the reports.

9. WebFX

The big generalist with a contractor practice. Its contractor marketing page prints custom plans starting at $3,000 a month, and its SEO pricing page prints five plans on a six-month commitment:

• Silver, $2,900 a month.
• Silver Plus, $4,200.
• Gold, $6,150.
• Platinum, $7,400.
• Diamond, $9,200.

Local SEO is printed on its own page as "Starting at $575/per month." WebFX's contractor SEO guide says the average full SEO budget runs between $2,500 and $7,500 a month.

The fit is a larger contractor that wants a big-agency reporting team and can commit for six months. A two-crew shop is paying for scale it will not use.

10. Thrive Internet Marketing Agency

The full-service generalist, in digital marketing since 2005, with a dedicated contractor SEO page and month-to-month contracts. The pricing page prints ranges and labels its business-size tiers monthly estimates:

• SEO "can range from $500 to $10,000+ per month."
• Small businesses are "Starting at $500/month."
• Local SEO "typically ranges from $500 to $1,500 per month."

Local plans named Basic, Advanced and Premium carry no printed price. The proposal form on the contractor page starts its budget menu at "Under $750," so a small contractor can at least open the conversation.

Contractors are one industry among many at Thrive, and account quality depends on the team you draw. The advantage is one vendor for every channel.

11. Contractor Gorilla

A contractors-only shop that says so: "We only work with contractors and trades, and prefer it that way." It leads with website design and sells SEO and PPC alongside. First Page Sage's list ranks it sixth.

No price is printed. The cost answer on both the homepage and the general contractor marketing page is "Contact us today for pricing," and no contract term is printed either.

Its trade menu has separate pages for general contractors, home builders, commercial work and remodeling. Ask for the monthly fee in writing before the consultation.

12. Siana Marketing

Sixth for "contractor SEO agency" today, with a different client. The homepage says "At Siana we help construction, design and real estate companies get found online," and the construction page adds architects, developers, subcontractors and engineers to the contractors it serves.

The product is "a tailored 12-month SEO strategy" that covers search engines and AI tools. The construction page says "Initial results within 2-3 months, significant impact after 6 months."

No price and no contract term are printed. The fit is a commercial contractor or builder whose buyer is a developer, which is a different sale from a homeowner with a leak.

What contractor SEO services should cost by company size

The printed numbers sort into three bands, and the band should match your size and your sales cycle.

Footbridge at $249 sits under the first band, for the owner whose budget is the whole decision. The chart sorts each agency's lowest printed SEO price.

How much SEO costs has the full market ranges to check any quote against.

General contractor SEO costs more because it takes longer

A service call closes this week. A remodel or a build closes months after the first search, so the agency is paid for longer before the first job lands. Contractor Growth Network prints that plainly, with its trickle of leads around month nine.

That is why the remodeler-focused price on this list starts at $3,150 on a twelve-month term. If you are a general contractor, ask each agency for a client with your sales cycle. The construction section of the contractor SEO guide covers how the work itself differs.

When a construction SEO company is the better hire

If your buyer is a developer or a property manager, most of this list is aimed at the wrong searcher. Blue Corona keeps a separate construction SEO page with the same $2,000 to $10,000 range, and Siana sells only to construction, design and real estate firms.

Our list of the best construction marketing agencies sorts nine firms by the kind of construction company each one serves.

Five questions to ask a contractor SEO agency before you sign

Each one exposes a weak proposal:

1. What is the fee, in writing, before the demo? Two of the twelve print nothing, and Blue Corona's process starts with a paid audit.
2. What is the term, and what happens at month four? Three agencies here print six or twelve months, and a fourth recommends twelve.
3. Who owns the website when you leave? Hook and Blue Corona print that you own it. On Built-Right's twelve-payment website plan, the page says ownership stays with Built-Right until the balance is paid.
4. Which client with my sales cycle ranks today? A roofer's results say little about what the agency can do for a design-build firm.
5. What do you do about AI search? Hook, Comrade, Contractor Growth Network and Siana all print it inside the SEO line. An agency with no answer is behind them.

Frequently asked questions

How much do contractor SEO services cost?

Printed prices on November 12, 2026 run from $249 a month at Footbridge Media and $499 for Built-Right's stand-alone Local SEO, through $750 at Skill Mammoth and $899 at 1Digital, to $3,750 at Hook and $2,000 to $10,000 or more at Blue Corona. A one-to-three-crew contractor should expect $750 to $1,500 a month.

Which contractor SEO company is best for a small contractor?

Skill Mammoth, 1Digital's Launch tier or Thrive's local range, all printed under $1,500 a month, or Footbridge Media at $249 if a basic site and listings are the whole need. Hook marks under $1 million in revenue as not a fit, and Contractor Growth Network is built for $2 million to $7 million remodelers.

Do contractor SEO agencies require contracts?

Contractor Growth Network requires 12 months, then month to month. 1Digital and WebFX print six-month terms, and Comrade recommends a 12-month minimum. Skill Mammoth, Built-Right, Footbridge and Thrive print month to month, and Blue Corona's construction page says no long-term contracts. Hook, Contractor Gorilla and Siana print no term, so ask before signing.

What is different about general contractor SEO?

The buyer researches for weeks or months instead of calling tonight, so results arrive later and the fee runs longer before the first job lands. Contractor Growth Network, which sells to remodelers, tells clients to expect a trickle of one to three leads a month around month nine. Budget for a year before judging the program.

Can general contractors run Google Local Services Ads?

Yes. Google's list of eligible categories, read on November 12, 2026, includes General contractor, Handyman, Kitchen remodeling, Bathroom remodeling, Roofers and Carpenters. Ask any agency whether it manages the ads and what that costs. Built-Right prints $499 a month for it, and Hook prints $2,000 with Google Ads included.

How long does contractor SEO take to work?

Blue Corona says results generally show between three and six months, and up to a year in competitive markets. WebFX says three to six months for meaningful, stable results. Siana says initial results in two to three months and significant impact after six. Contractor Growth Network tells remodelers to plan on twelve.
