Results for restoration company owners

23 restoration jobs worth $219K from leads our team brought in
Since June, leads our team brought in have turned into 23 jobs worth $219K for two restoration companies. That includes an $87.7K fire and odor job, a $59K water damage job and a $43.7K water damage job.
Two owner-operated restoration companies started with us in 2026, one in June and one in September. Both had five-star reviews and a good name. Neither had a steady flow of the jobs they wanted most.
Here is what leads from our team turned into, counted from each company's own job records:
- An $87.7K fire and odor job.
- A $59K water damage job.
- A $43.7K water damage job.
- A $12.5K mold job.
- 19 more jobs, smaller ones.
That is 23 jobs worth $219K. For one company it was 69% of all their job value in the first three months. For the other it was 41% since June.
One of the two had been buying leads one at a time from outside vendors. Since September, not one of their jobs has come that way, and their total job value still went up 51%.
The lesson for an owner: count jobs and dollars, not calls. One fire job or one large water loss can change a quarter, but only if the calls are yours and someone is tracking each one to a real job.
Three jobs worth $115K, including a $59K water damage job
A restoration company started with us in June 2026. Since then, leads our team brought in have turned into three jobs worth $115K: a $59K water job, a $43.7K water job and a $12.5K mold job. That is 41% of all their job value over that time. In the last 30 days they had 20 leads from one source and 12 from another, and their leads doubled from 14 to 28 over four weeks. New reviews also came in 69% faster, all at 5 stars.
The starting point
A restoration company came to us in June 2026. They had strong five-star reviews, which is a good base. But when we first checked how easy they were to find in their area, they barely showed up where customers look. We have no tracked lead count from before we started.
What we found
The first check showed the company was hard to find in local results. The reviews were strong, but not enough people were seeing the company to benefit from them. The jobs had to come from somewhere other than word of mouth alone.
What we did
We took over their lead generation and follow-up. The first calls came in during July 2026, and a second source of leads started in August 2026. After that our team kept making small changes every week.
What happened
Start with the money. Since June, leads our team brought in have turned into three jobs worth $115K, an average of about $38K each. That is 41% of all their job value in that time.
- A $59K water damage job in August 2026.
- A $43.7K water damage job in September 2026.
- A $12.5K mold job in October 2026.
The lead count grew too. In the last 30 days, one source gave them 20 leads, with 3 booked, and another gave them 12 leads. That compares with 15 and 11 in the first 30 days of each. Across all sources, leads went from 14 to 28 in four weeks, a 100% rise since we started tracking.
Reviews kept moving as well. New reviews came in about 69% faster than before we started, all at 5 stars.
Some early checks on how easy they are to find are still thin. We are a few weeks in on those, so we are not calling them a result yet.
The lesson
Give new lead generation a few months and judge it by jobs, not just calls. The first big water job came within weeks of the first lead, and three jobs paid for a lot of patience. Keep a count of what each lead turns into, so you know what is working.
$104K in jobs in three months, including one $87.7K fire job
We worked with a restoration company that started with us in September 2026. In the first three months, 20 jobs worth $104K were tied to our work, about 69% of all their job value in that time. One fire and odor job alone brought in $87.7K in September. Their total job value went from $101K before we started to $152K since, up 51%. The owner also told us the calls coming in were a good fit, like a leaking hot water tank.
The starting point
This is a restoration company that came to us in September 2026. They already had a strong name locally. They had strong five-star reviews. In the 70 days before we started, they did 45 jobs worth about $101K.
They wanted more of the right jobs, not just more calls.
What we found
When we first checked how easily people could find them, the numbers were low. They barely showed up for the kinds of jobs they wanted most, including mold work. Good reviews were there, but the work coming in was not matching the reputation. We had no tracked baseline before this, so we measured from August 2026 and counted from there.
What we did
We took over their lead generation and follow-up. Then we kept making small improvements week after week through the fall, adding new pieces in September and again in November.
What happened
Start with the money. One fire and odor job brought in $87.7K in September. Across the first three months, 20 jobs worth $104K were tied to our work, with an average ticket of $5,200. That was 69% of all their job value in that time.
Their total job value also moved. In the 70 days before we started they had 45 jobs worth about $101K. In the 70 days since, they had 51 jobs worth about $152K. That is up 51%. We did not tie that whole gain to our work, so we say it as the company's overall number.
The owner told us the calls were the right kind. In October, a call came in about a leaking hot water tank, and the owner called it a good lead type. Later that month, an evening call was described as being in a good area and a good service call.
No more buying leads by the piece
Before we started, part of their work came from companies that sell calls and leads one at a time. In the first half of 2026, 21 of their 111 completed jobs came that way. The owner told us those leads had been a poor fit for his area, and he switched the vendors off in August, just as we were getting started.
He has not needed to turn them back on. Since September, not one job has come from a paid lead vendor, and total job value went up 51% anyway. The calls coming in now are ones the company owns, not ones it rents.
The lesson
One big job can make a month, but it is the steady, right-fit calls that build a business. When those calls are your own, you can stop paying someone else for each one. Ask whoever runs your leads to show you the jobs and the dollars tied to their work, not just the call counts. If they cannot, you do not know what you are paying for.
Start with the call.
If it's a no after that, that's fine too. Just tell us straight.
