Skip to content Social media that books jobs — not vacation pics.
We bring the camera, the crew, and the script to your jobsite. You get a content engine that turns finished projects into Reels, Stories, and posts that actually move the phone — instead of another contractor account nobody follows.
Most contractor social is vacation pics + lazy posts that don’t book a single job.
Here’s the thing. We’ve audited a couple hundred contractor Instagram and TikTok accounts across Alpharetta, Cumming, Roswell, and Marietta in the last year. The pattern is brutal. A grainy phone photo of a finished patio. A logo on a watermark. A caption like “another happy customer!” with three hashtags. Three weeks of silence. Then a reposted meme. Then more silence.
The owner usually says some version of the same thing. “We have a guy who does it.” Or “my niece runs it.” Or “I post when I have time.” Then they wonder why their account has 412 followers and zero leads in three years.
Real talk: contractor social isn’t broken because you don’t post enough. It’s broken because nobody is actually shooting the work. The posts that book jobs aren’t graphics. They’re vertical Reels of a real Cumming pool build. Time-lapses of an Alpharetta paver patio install. Owner-on-camera explaining why the foundation prep matters. That’s the content that turns a scroll into a phone call. And no contractor has time to make it themselves while running crews.
The contractors winning social in 2026 aren’t posting more. They’re producing real video content from real jobsites — shot by an actual crew that knows lighting, angles, and what a homeowner is scrolling for. The DIY-from-the-truck era is over.
The good news? You don’t have to learn to edit Reels. You don’t have to be on camera if you don’t want to be. You just need a content engine that runs every month with or without you.

The five pieces of a contractor social engine that actually books work.
None of these alone moves the phone. Run all five and your social goes from invisible to the first thing a homeowner checks before calling.
On-site content shoots at your jobsites.
Our crew shows up to your active jobs with the camera, drone, audio, and lighting we need to actually capture the work. Mid-build pool excavations. Roof tear-offs at sunset. Kitchen demo days. Owner walk-throughs. We shoot the things you can’t shoot from the truck. Combine this with our local SEO build and the same footage becomes ranked organic assets too. Most contractor agencies skip this entirely — that’s why their feeds look like everyone else’s stock photos.
Reel scripts written for your buyer.
Hooks tested across the home-services niche. Captions that match the way homeowners scroll. Edits paced for retention, not aesthetics. The same shoot turns into 6–10 finished assets — not one.
Posting cadence that doesn’t ghost.
4 Reels, 3 carousels, daily Stories. Scheduled, captioned, hashtagged, posted. Consistent enough that the algorithm starts trusting you. That’s where the organic reach unlocks.
Story templates + DM workflow.
Branded Story templates for testimonials, before/afters, behind-the-scenes, and crew shoutouts. Plus a DM workflow that turns IG inquiries into actual booked consultations — most contractors lose those leads on day one.
Paid amplification on the winners.
Once a Reel is organically pulling 5x your average reach, we put paid behind it — Meta and TikTok geo-targeted to your service area. Cheap, hyper-effective, and only spent on content that’s already proven. No wasted budget on cold creative that hasn’t been tested.
Why the “I’ll post when I have time” approach plateaus at 400 followers.
Same calendar year, completely different account by month nine.

A camera pointed at the right thing — most contractor social fails at this single step.
How we run a 12-month social engagement.
Diagnose what’s actually broken in week one.
We pull your last 90 days of posts, your competitor accounts, your DM flow, your Story usage, and your hashtag map. Then we hand you a written content gap report — what you should be shooting that you aren’t, and what to stop posting immediately.
Show up with a camera and capture six weeks at once.
Our crew comes to 1–3 of your active jobsites in a single day. We shoot owner walk-throughs, mid-build POV, drone aerials, time-lapses, before/afters, and crew B-roll. One shoot day produces 6–10 finished Reels plus 30+ static assets.
Post, engage, amplify — every week, no input from you.
4 Reels per week, 3 carousels, daily Stories, DM monitoring, comment engagement, paid amplification on the organic winners. You get a monthly dashboard. You don’t have to think about it again until the call from a Roswell homeowner who saw your last Reel.
Studio interview day for a Roswell PI firm. Same content engine, different niche.
Built for six contractor categories. Not for everyone.
Our content engine compounds hardest for high-ticket home services where homeowners check social before they call.
The contractors we see winning on social aren’t posting more. They’re showing the work nobody else shows — the messy, mid-build, sunset-on-the-jobsite stuff that proves they actually know what they’re doing.— Mike, after 200+ contractor content audits
What 9 months of managed social looks like.
Averages across our last 12 contractor engagements in the GA-400 corridor. Real numbers, not “10x” puffery.

What contractors keep asking about managed social.
We shoot it. Our crew shows up to your jobsites with cameras, drones, lighting, and audio gear. Phone footage from your foreman is fine for Stories and gap-fillers, but the Reels and content that actually moves the algorithm need real production. That’s the whole point of working with us — most contractors lose three years of social trying to DIY it before realizing the camera matters more than the caption.
Nope. About half our clients are on-camera and half aren’t. Owner-on-camera content does outperform faceless content by roughly 2–3x — but if you’re not comfortable, we lean heavily on crew shots, mid-build POV, drone aerials, and finished-project reveals. We also get strong results coaching the foreman or project manager to be the on-camera voice if the owner doesn’t want to be.
Instagram and TikTok are the daily drivers — that’s where the home-services attention lives in 2026. Facebook gets the cross-posted Reels because Meta auto-distributes them. YouTube Shorts get the same Reels too as a free re-cut. We don’t waste time on Twitter or LinkedIn for contractors unless you have a specific B2B angle (commercial roofing, custom builders chasing developers, etc).
Managed social engagements run $3,800–$6,400 a month depending on shoot frequency and paid amplification budget. The lower end gets you 1 shoot day per month plus full posting cadence. The higher end is 2 shoot days plus an active paid amplification budget on the winners. Compared to spending $4,000/mo on Angi to get recycled leads with an 8% close rate, the math works out fast.
You do. 100%. Every raw clip, every finished Reel, every static photo from every shoot — yours. We deliver a Google Drive folder of every asset every month. If you ever stop working with us, you keep everything we made together. We don’t believe in holding contractor content hostage. That’s not a partnership, that’s a hostage situation.
Want to see what your social would actually look like with a real content engine behind it?
Free 30-minute audit call. We pull up your current IG, your top three local competitors, and a sample shoot day plan for one of your active jobsites — and tell you exactly what’s leaking. We do a few of these a week with contractors across all six niches we serve.
