How Kiwis find tradies
New Zealand is a smaller market where reputation travels fast. Buyers rely heavily on reviews and local recommendations, and search is concentrated in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch and fast-growing regional centres. Many businesses rely on Builderscrack, NoCowboys and local Facebook groups, where one job is often seen by several tradies. We help you keep what works there while building channels that bring jobs only you see:
- Google Ads: "reroof", "heat pump installation", "bathroom renovation", "switchboard upgrade" and "blocked drain" searches, tracked to booked jobs.
- Google Business Profile: service areas, real job photos and reviews. In smaller towns the map pack often decides who gets the call.
- Local SEO: pages for Auckland suburbs, Wellington, Christchurch, Hamilton, Tauranga and the regions you serve.
- Fast follow-up: customers contact several tradies, and the first good reply usually wins.
How New Zealanders search
| What they type | What it tells us |
|---|---|
| "reroof cost Auckland" | High ticket, researching: a price guide earns the call |
| "heat pump installer near me" | Ready to buy: reviews decide |
| "builder [town]" | Local trust: portfolio and reviews |
| "LBP builder [city]" | Licensing matters: show it |
| "sparky Christchurch" | Local wording: use it naturally |
Licences and trust signals
Show the licences that apply to your work, for example Licensed Building Practitioner (LBP) status for restricted building work, and registration with the Electrical Workers Registration Board or the Plumbers, Gasfitters and Drainlayers Board. We add licence numbers, insurance and guarantees to every page.
Seasonality we plan for
- Winter: heat pumps, insulation, leaks and roof repairs.
- Spring and summer: reroofing, decks, landscaping, renovations and solar.
- After storms: roof and restoration demand spikes regionally, so budgets follow the weather.
Lead capture and tracking follow the Privacy Act 2020, and email and SMS marketing respects the Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act.
What it costs
Plans start at $550 a month (Basic), with Pro at $750 and Advanced at $1,000. Ad spend is paid directly to Google. Compare plans.

Questions About Working in New Zealand
Is the New Zealand market big enough for SEO?
Yes. Searches are smaller than in larger countries, but so is the competition, so a well-built Business Profile and local pages can reach the top faster, especially outside Auckland.
Is Builderscrack worth it for NZ tradies?
It can bring work, but jobs are often seen by several tradies and you compete on price. Google Ads, your Business Profile and SEO bring enquiries only you see.
How do tradies get more jobs from Google in NZ?
Choose the right Business Profile categories, list your service areas, add real job photos, ask for a review after every job and run Google Ads on your best-paying work.
How quickly will we see leads?
Google Ads usually bring enquiries within the first few weeks. SEO and Maps build over three to six months, and smaller towns are often faster.
Should my LBP number be on my website?
Yes, if you are a Licensed Building Practitioner. Customers check it for restricted building work.
Do you sell shared leads?
No. Every enquiry comes from campaigns and pages built for your business, and we work with one tradie per trade in each area.
