Maps, reviews & reputation. Bundles with any plan
Content marketing comes with every website build. Reputation management comes with Google Business Profile. No bloated bundles, just the channels that grow your business.
A property owner sees a cracked, aging driveway. They search "driveway paving near me" and call the first 2–3 results. If you're not in position 1, you lose a $3,000–$15,000+ paving contract. We build Google Ads campaigns for asphalt and paving contractors who understand big-ticket project value. Not generic templates—proven strategies built by construction PPC experts.
High-intent, high-value keywords from property owners needing pavement work. Location-based searches ("near me," "in [city]") + project-specific searches (driveway, parking lot) + service-specific searches (sealcoating, repair, resurfacing). All CPCs and CPL data reflect real 2026 market rates for contractors.

Our proven 11-step framework built specifically for commercial project value. No PMax, no wasted clicks. Search-only campaigns with project-type segmentation, estimation-focused landing pages, and expertise emphasis.
Separate keywords into 7 ad groups: Residential Driveway, Commercial Paving, Parking Lot Paving, Sealcoating, Asphalt Repair, Resurfacing, and Premium Services. Each group gets project-scope-matched messaging emphasizing expertise and durability.
Driveway ads: "Expert driveway paving. Lasting results. Free estimate." Commercial ads: "Commercial parking lot paving. Professional results. Guaranteed." Sealcoating ads: "Protect your asphalt. Professional sealcoating." Each ad emphasizes expertise and durability.
Driveway keywords go to residential driveway page. Commercial paving keywords go to commercial paving page. Sealcoating keywords go to maintenance service page. Each page shows project portfolio, estimate process, timeline, and warranty information.
We use Target CPA bidding based on your average paving project value (typical projects = $3,000–$15,000). Google's AI learns which clicks convert to estimate requests and booked projects. We bid aggressively on high-value keywords (commercial parking, driveway installation).
Spring driveway season = 30% of budget. Summer commercial projects = 28%. Fall preparation = 22%. Winter repairs = 20%. Budget shifts monthly based on seasonal paving demand and weather conditions. Post-winter damage drives spring budgets.
Commercial paving keywords get aggressive position 1 bids (highest value). Driveway keywords bid for position 1–2. Sealcoating keywords bid for position 2–3. Parking lot keywords bid aggressively (often premium projects). We adjust bids up 30% during peak seasons.
Every ad group's landing page offers free estimate request. You see which keywords drive estimate requests and actual booked projects. Estimate form submissions tracked with 24-hour conversion window (property owners often compare estimates across multiple days).
80%+ of paving searches are mobile, often by property managers or owners on-site. Landing pages load under 1 second. Giant "GET FREE ESTIMATE" button above fold. Click-to-call instantly connects decision-makers. Portfolio images prominent to build confidence.
We monitor 5–7 local paving competitors daily. Check their service offerings, pricing transparency, project portfolio, warranty claims. If competitors emphasize speed, we emphasize durability. If they focus on budget, we emphasize quality and expertise.
Quality Score impacts CPC directly. We highlight certifications, insurance, project warranty, portfolio excellence in landing pages. High ad relevance and expected CTR keep Quality Score at 7+. Portfolio updates and client testimonials build authority and boost CTR.
Every day: review yesterday's estimates and project closings by ad group. Which keywords drove projects? Which produced low-value estimates? Which keywords have low conversion rates? Lower bids or pause underperformers. Increase budget on high-ROI keywords. Testing never stops.
We don't follow a template. Every campaign is custom-built with proven strategies that work in paving and asphalt—and nowhere else.
We build Search-only campaigns with manual keyword bidding. No Display Network. No YouTube. No Audience Expansion. We bid on the exact paving keywords that matter, at the exact bid we choose.
Driveway keywords get residential messaging. Commercial keywords get commercial expertise. Parking lot keywords get commercial scale messaging. Each ad group is separately tracked, managed, and optimized. One account manager oversees each campaign personally.
We bid $18–$40 on premium paving keywords because those estimates lead to $3,000–$15,000+ projects. We never compete on cheap clicks. We compete on qualified estimates. Our bids are 25–35% higher than competitors—and our project ROI is 4–7× better.
We know which keywords drive estimate requests, which drive project bookings, which keywords generate highest project value. Every click is attributed to the exact keyword and project type that generated it. This data drives daily optimization decisions.
80%+ of paving searches are mobile, usually by property owners or managers on-site. We optimize for speed (under 1 second), giant estimate buttons, instant contact. No desktop-first designs that fail when decision-makers need info NOW.
Every day, we review yesterday's estimates and project bookings. Which keywords performed? Which produced low-value estimates? We make 3–5 data-driven changes and report them to you weekly with impact on CPL and project revenue.
We charge a management fee of $500–$800/month depending on the number of ad groups and project tracking complexity. This is in addition to ad spend. Most paving campaigns run $2,000–$6,000/month in ad spend, so your total investment is $2,500–$6,800. With an average project value of $3,000–$15,000 and an 8–13% conversion rate, your ROI is typically 6–12×.
CPL depends on CPC ÷ conversion rate. Paving CPCs range from $12–$40 depending on the keyword (residential lower, commercial parking higher). With 8–13% landing page conversion rates, your blended CPL is typically $92–$500, with most clients seeing $150–$300. Cost per estimate matters less than average project value—each estimate should lead to projects worth $3,000–$15,000+.
Yes, exclusively. Commercial paving is often the highest-value work. Parking lot CPCs are $30–$40 and convert at 10–15%. We segment commercial and residential separately and bid aggressively on commercial because they're premium projects.
Campaign launch: Day 1. Ads go live immediately. Keywords start showing. You'll see 25–60 clicks on day 1 from property owners searching for paving. Expected estimate requests in week 1: 3–8. By week 2: 8–15 requests. By week 3–4: 15–25+ requests per week. Most clients hit 40–80 estimates/month and 10–20 booked projects/month by week 8.
No contracts. Month-to-month. You can pause or stop anytime with 10 days notice. That said, paving campaigns improve dramatically over time. Weeks 1–4 are setup and initial testing. Months 2–4 are refinement. Months 5–12 are peak ROI and lowest CPL. Most clients stay 6–24 months because project volume accelerates. But it's your choice.
Perfect—we adjust for that. If you're fully booked for estimates, we lower bids to manage inbound. If you're seasonal (spring/fall peak), we budget those months higher and lower winter bids. If you focus on certain project types, we concentrate budget there. Your campaign adapts to your actual capacity and seasonality.
Google Ads captures urgent project searches immediately. SEO builds long-term organic authority. Together they fill your estimate pipeline year-round.
