Competitor Research for HVAC, Plumbing & Roofing Companies

See how the contractors you compete with price, promote and win jobs in your service area, and where you can take customers from them.

Homeowners compare contractors in minutes

When a homeowner's AC quits in July or a roof starts leaking after a storm, they search, scan the map results, read a few reviews, and call whoever looks most trustworthy and easiest to book. They rarely compare more than three or four companies. Knowing exactly how you look next to those three or four is one of the most practical pieces of research a home service business can buy.

What we compare

  • Offers and pricing signals. Published service-call or diagnostic fees, coupons, seasonal tune-up specials, free estimate offers, and membership or maintenance plans, wherever competitors publish them.
  • Financing and guarantees. Who advertises financing, satisfaction guarantees, warranties, and same-day or 24/7 service, and how prominently.
  • Service mix. Which trades and specialties each competitor emphasizes, such as replacements versus repairs, commercial versus residential, or storm work and insurance claims for roofers.
  • Reviews and reputation. Ratings and review volume across public platforms, and the recurring themes customers mention: response time, pricing surprises, cleanliness, technician professionalism.
  • Local visibility. How each competitor's Google Business Profile, website and service-area pages are set up, and whether they appear for the obvious searches in your towns.
  • Hiring and expansion signals. Public job postings and new locations that suggest where a competitor is investing.

Questions this answers

  • Is our maintenance plan priced and packaged competitively?
  • Why does a competitor with fewer years in business show up above us?
  • What do customers complain about with other companies that we can solve and advertise?
  • Which nearby towns are under-served by strong competitors?
  • Is opening a second location or expanding to a new county worth it?

Expanding into a new territory?

Growth is where research pays for itself fastest. The Business Expansion Report ($599) looks at a target market before you commit trucks, technicians and ad budget. It covers who already serves the area, how strong their reputations are, how they price and promote, and what risks and entry considerations to plan for. It is the same kind of work you would otherwise piece together over weeks of searching.

How it works

You tell us your trade, service area and the competitors you run into most (or we identify them). We gather public information from websites, review platforms, listings and job boards, organize it with AI tools, and review every finding by hand. You receive a clear report with a comparison table, competitor profiles, review themes, and prioritized recommendations for offers, messaging and local marketing.

We never contact your competitors or pose as customers. Everything comes from public sources, and if something isn't published, we tell you rather than guessing.

Packages

Start with a Competitor Snapshot ($149) for three to five rivals, or the Customer Intelligence Report ($249) to understand what customers in your market actually value. Contractors in competitive metros often choose the Monthly Intelligence Subscription so they see competitor promotions and review trends as they change. We're based in Tampa, Florida, cover St. Petersburg and Clearwater, and serve HVAC, plumbing, electrical and roofing companies nationwide.

Frequently asked questions

Do you work with electricians and other trades?

Yes. HVAC, plumbing and roofing are the most common, but the same research works for electrical, pest control, pool, landscaping and other home service trades.

Will you call competitors for quotes?

No. We only use public information and don't pose as customers.

How is this different from SEO software?

SEO tools show rankings and keywords. We compare offers, pricing signals, reviews and positioning, which is what homeowners actually weigh when choosing who to call.
