General Contractor Case Study

Sonus Digital's digital marketing solutions help an established remodeling company modernize its online presence and outpace larger competitors.

Objectives

With 15 years of project history but a website that hadn't been touched since 2016, this general contractor needed a digital presence that reflected the quality of their actual work — and a way to finally see which marketing efforts were producing estimate requests.

Solutions

Rebuilt the Website Around Conversion

Replaced the old brochure-style site with a project-gallery-driven design, clear calls to action, and fast mobile load times.

Call and Form Tracking

Implemented tracking so the team could see, for the first time, exactly which channels — organic search, ads, or referrals — were generating estimate requests.

Local SEO & Review Generation

Optimized for target service-plus-neighborhood keywords and rolled out a systematic post-project review request process.

Results

More Estimate Requests

Estimate requests rose 27% within the first 90 days of the new site going live.

Stronger First Impression

Average time-on-site increased while bounce rate was cut roughly in half.

Search Visibility

Achieved page-one rankings for 5 of the company's top target keywords, including “home addition contractor” searches in their service area.

Reputation Growth

Grew from a handful of scattered reviews to a 4.9-star average across more than 60 new Google reviews.
