ArcosBuilt for the trade you are in
Arcos builds websites for home service businesses, sets up their Google Business Profile and replies to every web inquiry and missed call. Each trade gets its own Google category, service pages and form questions: a tow call and a patio quote need different answers.

- LandscapingGalleries of your own projects that sell the design visit.
- Lawn careBuilt to fill your mowing route in March, not in June.
- Pressure washingBefore-and-after photos of your own jobs do the selling.
- ConcreteEstimate requests with square footage, tear-out and timing already answered.
- CleaningHome quotes by bedrooms and bathrooms, office quotes by square footage.
- Towing and junk carsEvery missed call gets a text back with your business name.
- Fence and deckFence requests arrive with linear feet and gates, deck requests with size.

Questions
Which Google category should my business pick?
The most specific one that names your main work. Google asks for as few categories as possible, as specific as possible, and the category decides which services Google suggests for your profile.
Can my trade run Local Services Ads?
Google publishes the list of US trades that can. Junk removal, lawn care, house cleaning, towing and fencing are on it. Concrete, pressure washing, deck building, gutters, masonry and janitorial work are not, so those trades use Google Ads instead.
Is it the same website for every trade?
No. The template is shared, but each trade gets its own services, wording and form questions, and its own Google category. A junk removal form asks about the load; a landscaping form asks about the yard.
My trade is not listed. Can you still build for it?
Yes. Arcos builds for US trades and local service businesses beyond this list. Pick Something else in the form and name your trade.
