Google Ads for gas fitters

Google Ads for gas fitters: hot water, cooktops and heaters

Google Ads for gas fitters puts your gas fitting business at the top of Google when someone nearby searches for the job, like "gas leak detection" or "gas cooktop installation", and you pay only when they click. ADEL SEO helps local businesses get more enquiries from Google, Google Maps and AI search, with websites, SEO and Google Ads. Founded in Adelaide in 2014 by Wilson Tiong, who has been doing SEO since 2007.

We've run Google Ads for gas fitters.

How it starts

How people search for a gas fitter

  • Urgent: "gas leak detection" and "gas hot water not working".
  • Planned: "gas cooktop installation", "gas hot water installation", "gas heater service" and "gas compliance certificate".
  • By area: "gas fitter Hallett Cove".

Gas fitting searches are often specific: a cooktop to install, a heater to service, a compliance certificate for a sale. Some are urgent, like a gas hot water system that stops.

Wasted spend

Where gas fitter Google Ads waste money

For gas fitters, most wasted money goes on:

  • Searches from people who will never hire you: "gas bottle refill", "gas fitting course", "gas prices", "gas bottle swap" and "gas fitter jobs".
  • Clicks from outside the area you want to work in.

Every week

How we run Google Ads for gas fitters

Every week:

  • Search terms: we check whether clicks come from people needing a licensed gas fitter or from people looking for gas bottles.
  • Blocked searches: "gas bottle refill", "gas fitting course" and "gas prices" first, then more from each week's search terms.
  • The jobs you want. Hot water, cooktops, heaters and compliance each get their own ads, so the budget follows the work you want.
  • The right page for each ad. Someone who searches "gas cooktop installation" lands on a cooktop page with your gas fitting licence and what's included.
  • Hours and area. Heater ads go up before winter. Hot water and cooktop ads run all year. Ads only show in the areas you cover.

Full method: Google Ads for tradies.

Good to know

Your licence front and centre

Gas work must be done by a licensed gas fitter, and customers look for it. Gas fitter Google Ads should send people to pages that show your licence number, so the click turns into a call.

Where to start

Which gas fitter jobs to advertise

  • Gas hot water: urgent and high value.
  • Cooktop and oven installation: planned.
  • Heater installs and servicing: seasonal.
  • Compliance certificates: property sales and rentals.
  • LPG conversions: if you do them.

From our experience

What we find in the accounts we take over

Most accounts we take on don't have conversion tracking set up properly, and there's no testing system in place. We fix the tracking first. The first month of a new campaign is for testing and collecting data on what brings real calls for your gas fitting business, so we ask clients not to set expectations too high for month one.

Questions

Google Ads for gas fitters FAQs

Is Google Ads worth it for a gas fitter?

It can be, because gas jobs need a licensed fitter and people search for one. It works when bottle and price searches are blocked.

When should heater ads run?

From late autumn into winter, when people get heaters serviced or installed.

Should I block searches with "price" or "quote" in them?

Not all of them. Someone searching what a job costs, or asking for a quote, is often ready to hire. Blocking them all in the first month cuts the data the campaign needs and can push your cost per lead up. We block them only when your own account shows they don't turn into jobs.

Do you run Google Ads for a small gas fitting business?

Yes. Google Ads for gas fitting businesses of any size use the same weekly checks.
