Decking lead generation since 2018
From 2-man crews to multi-location operations, deck builders across North America book more jobs with Home Service Direct.
From the owners
Home service owners we work with, on camera, in their own words. Every lead they get is exclusive to them, never shared.
Joe Cut Rite Tree Service, Fresno CA
"I always struggled to keep all our crews busy year-round. Phones were at a standstill at certain times of year. Since I've been dealing with Dave from Home Service Direct, he's always kept our calendar full. It has been a game changer for our company."
Jeremy Allscape Solutions, Albuquerque NM
"I've been with you guys for four years now and my business has grown. When I first started it was just me and maybe two other guys. Now I have got about five, six guys and I am building a second crew right now."
Troy Z. New Horizon Tree Service, Nashville TN
"Done the mailers, done the flyers, print ads, Angi. Nobody has done what Home Service Direct has done for my business. In less than six months we have scaled, opened another office and acquired more employees. It is the best marketing decision I've made for my company."
Zach Kansas City Tree Care
"I would say our calls have doubled since using them."

Lead generation on 6 channels
Relying on one lead source is how deck builders get burned when Google has a slow week. We run six channels at once. Each one reaches deck buyers at a different stage, from the homeowner searching tonight to the one whose old pressure-treated deck is rotting out. When one slows down, the others keep your consultations booked.
Here is what each one does, the deck jobs it brings in, and why it keeps your calendar full:
Be the first call when they search
Get known before they need you
Own the top spot with Google's badge
Win the map in every town you work
Show up at the best doors in town
Put your crews in front of your market

Exclusive vs. Shared - The Close Rate Math
Shared leads go to 3-5 contractors at once. The homeowner gets overwhelmed, and close rates drop to 5-10%. Exclusive leads go to one company - no bidding war, no race to call first.
The math: 10 shared leads at $30 each ($300) with a 7% close rate = 0.7 jobs. 5 exclusive leads at $60 each ($300) with a 45% close rate = 2.25 jobs. Same spend, 3x more jobs.
What Separates a $500 Lead From a $5,000 Lead
Service type matters: new deck build leads average $8,000-$25,000 per job - 3-5x more than deck repair leads at $500-$1,500. A lead source that segments by service type lets you prioritize the highest-revenue work.
Our system targets high-value new builds, composite deck, and full rebuild jobs - not just "repair" leads that pay $300.

Why owners pick us
A new deck is an $8K-$25K decision a homeowner makes once. You don't need more shared leads racing 4 other deck companies to the phone. You need exclusive deck builder leads booked as on-site consultations so you can quote the job and close it. Since 2018 that is the only thing we build for decking companies.
We run lead programs for deck builders all day long. We know a rotted-board or failed-ledger call is a fast close, and a "thinking about composite next year" lead needs follow-up. A generic agency treating you like another roofer does not.
Most deck clients see their first exclusive leads within 48-72 hours. We launch on the channels homeowners actually use to find a deck builder, not in 30 days like the last agency that made you wait.
Month-to-month agreements. No long-term contracts. We earn your business every single month with booked consultations you can count on the calendar.
Google Ads, Facebook, LSA, SEO, YouTube, Direct Mail. When search slows down in deep winter, social and mail keep your crew booked. One dead channel never empties your calendar.
Angi and Modernize sell the same deck lead to 4-5 contractors, so you are bidding against yourself before you even call. Ours go to your business and nobody else.
Cancel anytime. We don't lock you in because we don't need to. When your crew is booked weeks out on composite and multi-level deck jobs, you are not going anywhere.

How it works
Every week without a system, the $15K composite replacements in your area go to whichever deck builder the homeowner found and quoted first. Here's how to be that builder.
If your crew sits idle through the winter and you're still buying shared leads off Angi, it's time to talk to someone who has run deck builder campaigns since 2018.
We map out where your next deck jobs come from: the rotted-board and failed-railing repairs that close on the phone, and the composite and multi-level builds that sell at the kitchen table. A plan built for your market and your best zip codes, not a cookie-cutter template.
Exclusive deck consultations start hitting your phone in 48 to 72 hours. Your crew stays booked out for weeks on composite replacements and outdoor-living builds, and you become the #1 deck builder homeowners in your area call first.

Questions
Depends on the channel:
Whether you build composite decks, wood decks, or handle repairs, every one of these leads is exclusive to you, never shared with 3-5 competitors like Angi. And because a new deck runs $8K-$25K, even an $80 lead pays for itself many times over on a single close.
Angi and Modernize sell the same deck lead to 3-5 contractors. You're racing to call first and bidding against yourself on price before you ever walk the backyard. Our leads go exclusively to your company, no one else gets them. We run 6 channels, not one marketplace, and we guarantee 30+ deck leads in 30 days or we work for free. Angi guarantees nothing.
A homeowner, not a renter, in your service area with a real project: a rotted or unsafe deck, an old pressure-treated deck they want replaced with low-maintenance composite, or an outdoor-living build they are ready to price. We screen for the decision-maker and a realistic timeline so you are not driving out to tire-kickers. Quality over a big number of junk leads is the whole point of going exclusive.
Most deck builders get their first exclusive lead within 48-72 hours. We launch on the channels homeowners use to find a deck builder right away, not after a 30-day "discovery" phase. Your last agency probably made you wait months and still pointed broad keywords at every fence and patio search in town.
Almost every time, it wasn't the platform, it was the setup. Generic agencies bid on "decking" and burn your budget on people looking for deck stain, lumber prices, and DIY tutorials. They run one boring landing page and target everyone. We've run deck builder campaigns since 2018: we target homeowners with aging pressure-treated decks, lead with before-and-after composite photos and a monthly-payment offer, and send them to a page built to book a consultation, not collect tire-kickers.
Then we work for free until it does. Our performance guarantee is simple: 30+ qualified deck projects in 30 days, or we don't get paid. We keep working until you hit that number. No other agency offers this because they can't back it up.
Because we put our money where our mouth is. Month-to-month contracts. Performance guarantee. You own all your accounts and data. If we don't deliver, you leave, and we've made it easy to do that. The reason we can offer this is because we've generated leads for 100+ decking companies and know exactly what works.

If you build decks, this comes down to deck builder lead generation: a steady stream of deck builder leads from homeowners who are ready to hire, not tire-kickers. Most crews searching for deck builders leads or deck building leads are after the same thing, a phone that rings with real projects. Done right, it keeps your schedule full. Done wrong, you are stuck buying the same shared deck leads that four other builders are already calling.
That is the real number most builders never run. You buy a $30 "deck builder" lead off a shared platform, it gets resold to three or four other crews, you close maybe one in twelve, and your true cost per booked deck is around $400, for a job you had to underbid the whole town to win. The builder across the county is paying less than half that through exclusive leads no homeowner ever shopped. The whole game is understanding that gap, and this guide walks you through it owner to owner.
Here is what the shared-lead platforms leave off the invoice. The second a homeowner who wants a new composite deck hits submit on Angi, HomeAdvisor, or Thumbtack, every builder on the list gets the same ping at the same moment. Now you are racing three or four other crews to call back, and you are getting talked down on price before you ever set foot in the backyard. You win maybe one in ten, and the one you do win already priced you against everyone else.
So the sticker price lies to you. A $30 shared lead you close one time in twelve is not a $30 lead, it is roughly a $400 cost per booked job, and the homeowner treats you like one quote of four the whole way through. An exclusive lead costs more up front and closes far more often, because nobody else ever got that homeowner's number. You are not the cheapest of four bids. You are the call.
The takeaway: stop comparing leads by price. A cheap deck lead with a bad close rate is the most expensive lead you can buy.
What you pay per lead depends on where it comes from and whether anyone else got it. Here is the realistic range across the channels we run for deck builders:
Google Local Service Ads: roughly $40 to $90 per lead, exclusive, highest intent. Google Search Ads: roughly $45 to $100 per lead, since "deck builder near me" is competitive. Facebook and Instagram: roughly $25 to $55 per lead, great for showing off finished decks. Shared platforms (Angi, HomeAdvisor, Thumbtack): cheap per lead but resold, so the real cost lands far higher once you count close rate. SEO: effectively no cost per lead after the upfront work, which is why it is worth building underneath everything else.
But the channel matters less than the math behind it. A $80 Local Service Ads lead that books a $22,000 composite deck is the best money you will spend all year. A $30 shared lead for a homeowner pricing a single board replacement two towns over can lose you money once you count the drive and the estimate. Cost per lead is the wrong number to chase.
Cost per lead is a vanity number. The figure that actually runs your business is cost per booked job. Take what you pay per lead, divide by your close rate, and there it is in plain dollars.
Say you buy ten exclusive leads at $70 each. That is $700. Close four of them and you booked four decks at $175 of lead cost apiece. If your average deck job nets several thousand dollars in profit, you just turned $700 into the busiest month of your year. Now run that same math on shared leads closing at 8 percent and the whole thing falls apart. You cannot judge a lead source until you know your close rate and your average ticket, so nail those two numbers down before you spend another dollar.
A homeowner who just decided to build a deck is not waiting a week for callbacks. They are working down a list, and the first builder who answers live and can get out to measure usually books the job. Research on online sales leads has shown for years that calling back within the first hour dramatically improves your odds of even connecting, let alone closing the deck.
That is the quiet reason exclusive beats shared. With a shared lead you are already behind, because three other crews got the same ping. With an exclusive lead the homeowner found you and called you, and a phone that gets answered does the rest. A lead you call back tomorrow afternoon is a deck your competitor already measured this morning.
Not every decking lead is worth the same money. A board replacement or a small repair is steady, lower-ticket work that fills a slow week. A full composite deck in Trex or TimberTech, a multi-level build, a deck with a railing upgrade and built-in seating, or a big entertaining deck off the back of the house can run $15,000 to $30,000 and up, and those are the leads that make your whole season.
The whole game is targeting the high-value work, the composite builds, the multi-level decks, the bigger backyards in the better neighborhoods, instead of paying the same lead cost for a $400 board swap. A good lead system sends you a healthy mix and weights it toward the jobs that actually move the needle, not just whatever is cheapest to generate.
Work backward from your build calendar, not forward from a lead count. A deck is a multi-day to multi-week job, so one crew only finishes so many in a month. If you close around a third to a half of your exclusive leads, you need a steady, manageable flow of solid leads, not a flood you cannot get to. Buy more than you can build and you burn leads you already paid for while homeowners wait three weeks for a callback and book someone else. Buy too few and your crew has gaps between jobs. Match the lead volume to how fast you can actually build, then turn it up when you add a crew, not before.
Not every call is a real job, and you can usually tell early. A qualified decking lead is a homeowner who owns the property, has a real budget in mind, and a reason to build now: an old deck that is rotting or failing inspection, a new patio door that needs a deck off it, a backyard they are finally finishing, or a house they just bought. Those book. The tire-kicker is the renter who cannot approve the work, the homeowner shopping six bids to grind every builder on price, or the one who wants a $25,000 deck on a $5,000 budget and is really just browsing ideas.
The point of a real lead system is biasing your spend toward the first kind. That means the right zip codes, the right home values, and the search terms that signal a real build like "composite deck cost" and "deck installation," not just anyone who typed "deck ideas" into Google. Better targeting up front means you spend your days measuring jobs that close, not driving across town to quote a homeowner who was never going to sign.
If a past agency or lead service left a bad taste, you are not alone, and it usually comes down to the same handful of tricks. Watch for the long contract that locks you in before you have seen a single booked deck. Watch for "exclusive" leads that turn out to be resold to two other builders, or month-old inquiries recycled and dressed up as fresh. And watch for the outfit that cannot show you call recordings or tell you your cost per booked job, because if they are not tracking it, they are hiding it.
The fix is simple to ask for. Demand month-to-month terms, a real exclusivity guarantee in writing, call tracking on every lead, and a straight answer on what booked last month. A company actually producing decks has no reason to dodge any of that. The ones that fight you on it are telling you something.
Answering fast is half the battle. The other half is what happens after. Plenty of leads do not pick up the first time, and the builders who win are the ones that call back, text, and follow up instead of marking the lead dead after one missed ring. A homeowner who could not talk at 10am because they were at work will happily set an appointment at noon if you try again.
Build a simple rhythm: call the second the lead comes in, text if they do not answer, then follow up again the same day and the next. That alone separates the builders who close half their exclusive leads from the ones who close a quarter of the very same leads and then blame the lead source.
Decking is one of the most seasonal trades there is. The phone rings hard in spring and through summer, then demand falls off in winter in colder climates. Here is the mistake most builders make: they cut all their marketing in the off-season, then scramble to turn it back on in March when everyone else is bidding too. The builders who book out their entire spring are the ones marketing through the winter, so by the time the calls hit they are already ranking, already reviewed, and already top of mind. The homeowner planning a spring deck is shopping in February. Be the builder they find then, not the one who shows up late.
Whether you are after deck builder leads, deck building leads, or lead generation for deck building, the goal never changes: a full schedule of booked jobs, not a phone that only rings for price-shoppers.
We have run lead generation for home service contractors since 2018. Every decking lead we send is exclusive, it rings your phone and nobody else's, and it is built around the high-ticket composite and multi-level deck work, not low-margin board swaps. We track every lead so you know exactly what booked, and we work month to month because we would rather earn next month than lock you in. If your build calendar has open weeks coming up, that is the problem we solve.
