Marketing
Contractor marketing for Wood Dale covers the whole stack under one roof: website, SEO, Google Business Profile, ads, Pay Per Lead, social and AI mentions. In a town of about 14,000 people where most homes date to the early 1970s, the companies known for one trade get the replacement work, and we build that kind of brand.
A generalist gets the leftovers,
a specialist brand gets the first call
When a homeowner here wants a new deck, they search for a deck builder, not a company that does a little of everything. Five vendors pulling in five directions cannot fix a brand that stands for nothing in particular.
Scattered vendors, scattered message
A web designer, an SEO freelancer, an ads guy and a nephew doing Instagram each tell a slightly different story about your company. The homeowner comparing you against two other bids notices the gaps. One agency running every channel keeps the trade, service area and offer identical everywhere Google and the homeowner look.
We run every channel together →One trade earns the premium
With median home values around $319,000, a homeowner planning a patio or kitchen is spending a serious share of what the house is worth. They hire the company that clearly does that one thing all day. A brand built around a single trade commands a better price than a handyman-style list of services.
We build a specialist brand →We narrowed down the hard way
Lemur started out taking any client who called and spread itself thin before narrowing to residential contractors, and we tell that whole story on our contractor marketing hub. Having lived through it, we now help contractors do the same: pick the trade you want to be known for and point every channel at it.
We help you pick a lane →Replacement demand needs the full stack
Most homes here were built in the early 1970s, and the replacement cycle runs year after year. Capturing it takes rankings for the trade, a profile that converts the map pack, ads during the busy season and Pay Per Lead for the overflow. Those pieces only compound when one team coordinates them.
We stack the channels →Every channel, one team,
one monthly price
The full solution is $2,500 a month: website, local SEO, Google Business Profile, Google Ads, Pay Per Lead setup, social posting and AI brand mentions. One contact, one report, one strategy built around the trade you want to own.

What a specialist brand earns
in Wood Dale
Wood Dale is a DuPage County town of about 14,000 people with a median household income near $91,000 and 77 percent owner-occupancy. That combination produces a steady stream of mid-range home projects commissioned by people who intend to stay in the house. Those owners do their homework before hiring. They look at your website, your reviews, your photos and whether an AI answer or a neighbor mentions your name. A company that presents one clear trade across all of those touchpoints wins the comparison.
The age of the housing stock sets the opportunity. With a median build year of 1973, the original patios, decks, kitchens and fences are past their useful life. A generalist contractor shows up as one more name in a list. A deck company, a paver company or a kitchen remodeler shows up as the answer. We build the brand around that one trade, then run website, search, maps, ads and social so the same message reaches the homeowner at every step.
Our Des Plaines office is about 7 miles from here, which keeps the relationship practical. We meet in person when it helps, photograph your jobs, and adjust the plan as the season changes. You get one agency that knows the town rather than a vendor list to manage.

Contractor Marketing in Wood Dale:
Common Questions
What does full-service contractor marketing cost for a Wood Dale company?
The full solution is $2,500 a month and includes website, local SEO, Google Business Profile management, Google Ads management, Pay Per Lead setup, social media posting and AI brand mention work. Ad spend is separate and set by you. Single services start at $750 a month and a website on its own starts at $1,500 if you want to begin smaller.
Can I keep my current website and still hire you for the rest?
Yes. If the site converts and loads well, we leave it alone and build the remaining channels around it. If it undercuts the brand, we will say so and recommend a rebuild at $1,500 and up. The decision is yours; we would rather fix what is holding you back than sell you something you do not need.
I do several trades. Do I really have to narrow down for Wood Dale?
You do not have to stop doing any of them. You do have to pick one to lead with, because that is what homeowners search for and what they remember. We usually lead with the trade that earns the most per job, then present the others as related services once the homeowner is already on your site.
