What Google Ads for home renovations does while people decide
Renovations are slow to decide and costly to get wrong. It keeps the account tidy while people make up their minds.
- Whole-house remodels, additions, open-plan conversions and historic homes each get their own ads and page.
- Searches that turned into quotes become exact-match keywords.
- Two ads run side by side; when one clearly wins, the other goes.
- Every change comes to you first, with the reason, unless you switch on Optimize everything.
The searches that waste a renovator's money
Renovating is a hobby as well as a trade:
- "renovation ideas": scrapbooking. Type "ideas" once under jobs you don't do and those searches stop seeing your ad.
- "DIY renovation" and "how to renovate on a budget": weekend warriors.
- "renovation jobs" and "site supervisor salary": people after work.
- "renovation budget template": a spreadsheet, not a builder.
- "second hand windows": salvage shopping.

Dreamers, planners and people ready to sign
A good renovation lead has bought the house, knows roughly what they'll spend and wants someone through the door to measure up. Many aren't ready the first time they click. Follow-up ads show a small picture ad to people who visited your page and didn't get in touch, for a few weeks, so you're the name they remember. That campaign is built paused and waits for your OK, like every new campaign. It works the same way for home remodelers.
A page for every kind of remodel
A "historic home renovation" search lands on a page about historic homes, with your before and after photos and a quote form. Pages are split tested, and every call and form is counted. Google Ads for home renovations often overlaps with builders doing additions, and kitchens have their own page: Google Ads for kitchen renovations.
