AEO for Renovation Contractors
Renovation contractors get recommended by AI when they have strong review presence across multiple platforms (Google, Houzz, HomeStars), a complete GBP with renovation-specific service categories, and project content on their website that shows before-and-after work for specific renovation types. The more specific your project content, the more specific the queries you appear in.
Review platforms for renovation contractors: Google is the primary platform, but Houzz and HomeStars are indexed by AI systems and create corroborating signals. A renovation contractor with 60 Google reviews, 20 Houzz reviews, and a HomeStars listing with 15 reviews is treated as more established than one with 90 Google reviews and nothing else. The cross-platform presence is part of the credibility picture.
GBP categories for renovation contractors need to reflect your actual specialisation. 'General contractor' and 'home renovations' are baseline categories, but adding 'kitchen remodeling', 'bathroom renovation', 'basement development' (where applicable) creates specificity that routes you into the right AI recommendation context. A homeowner asking ChatGPT for 'who does kitchen renovations in Edmonton' is more likely to see a contractor whose GBP lists kitchen remodeling as a category.
Project content on the website is where most renovation contractors underinvest. A gallery of photos without project-specific context doesn't give AI systems anything to work with. A project page that describes the kitchen renovation — scope, challenge, materials, timeline, neighbourhood — is content AI can retrieve and summarise when recommending you for that type of project. Build 8–12 project pages, each focused on a specific renovation type and including the city and neighbourhood.
