What to fix first
Close the review gap
The top competitors have a median of 432 reviews. You have 109.
Get into the top 3 in more places
You make the top 3 at 6 of 25 points. Most people tap one of the first three results, so that’s where the calls come from. The competitors above you are the ones to compare categories, services and reviews with.
Roofers do their work at the customer’s property, so many run their profile as a service-area business with the address hidden. Google still measures distance from the address you verified, which is one reason your ranking fades as homeowners get farther from it. The scan shows how far out you still appear.
Common Business Profile categories for Roofers
- Roofing contractor
- Gutter cleaning service
- Siding contractor
- Contractor
Your primary category is one of the clearest signals of what you do. Compare yours with the businesses that outrank you.
Questions about Google Maps for Roofers
Will a bigger service area help my roofing company rank in more places?
Not on its own. Your service area tells customers where you work, but Google still measures distance from your verified address. To reach farther, work on relevance and prominence: an accurate primary category, the services you list and your reviews.
Should a roofing company hide its address on Google?
Yes, if you don’t serve customers at that address. Google’s guidelines ask service-area businesses to hide it. Hiding it doesn’t move where you rank from, since distance is still measured from the verified address.
Why do I show up for “roofer” but not for “roof repair”?
They’re separate searches, and Google can return different businesses for each. Listing roof repair and roof replacement as services, and covering them on your website, gives Google more to match. Scan each term you want to win.
Can I have a profile in each town I serve?
Only where you have a real location with staff during business hours. Google doesn’t allow profiles at addresses where you don’t operate, such as a mailbox or a friend’s house, and those listings can be suspended. One accurate profile with a service area is the setup Google accepts.
Do reviews matter for roofers?
Yes. Google counts review count and rating towards prominence. There’s no number to hit; what matters is how you compare with the roofers who outrank you, which the scan shows.
Questions
How is the ranking measured?
We run the same Google Maps search from 25 points in a grid around your business and record where you appear at each one. Every search is placed at its point, with no personal search history attached.
Why do I rank differently across my area?
Because distance is part of the ranking. Google weighs how far each business is from the person searching, so your position changes as the searcher moves. Relevance and prominence affect how far out you still show up.
Is it free?
Yes. A scan of up to 25 points and one answer from each AI assistant are free, with no account needed.
What do you ask the AI assistants?
We ask each assistant on the card the question shown there, once, for your city, and check whether your business is named in the answer. If an assistant isn’t available in your country, the card says so.
Why do AI assistants name different businesses than Google Maps?
Because they answer a different way. An assistant answers for the whole city rather than for one spot, and builds its answer from what it finds on the web, such as review sites, directories and articles. The sources it cites show where it looked.
Is Listed Local part of Google?
No. Listed Local is independent and isn’t affiliated with or endorsed by Google. A free scan only reads search results; it doesn’t change anything on your Business Profile.
