Contractors
GroupHound for contractors + remodelers
Remodeling and contractor leads from your local Facebook groups
Kitchens, baths, decks and additions usually start with a post asking who the neighbors trust. GroupHound alerts your phone the moment someone in your groups asks, with a reply ready to send.
What it catches
The posts that turn into projects
“Want to turn our tub into a walk-in shower. Who did yours and would you use them again?”
“Starting to plan a kitchen remodel for spring. Looking for contractors to get quotes from.”
“Our deck is rotting. Need someone to rebuild it, maybe bigger. Any recommendations?”
“We need more space but love our neighborhood. Who’s built an addition for you?”
“Looking for a reliable handyman or contractor for a list of small projects around the house.”
“Thinking about finishing our basement. Who should we talk to?”
When it matters most
Big projects start with a question in the group
New-year planning
Early in the year, homeowners start planning spring and summer projects and ask who to get quotes from.
Spring and summer builds
Decks, additions and exterior work peak with the weather, and so do the recommendation posts.
New homeowners
Recent buyers ask the group who to trust for the projects they planned when they bought.
Ready on day one
Starter keywords for contractors, already set up
Begin with the words homeowners actually use, then add the projects you want more of. Ads from other contractors are screened out, so you only hear about real requests.
“We’re finally redoing our master bath. Looking for a contractor who shows up and finishes on time. Recommendations?”
Drafted reply (example)Exciting project! One tip: ask anyone you talk to for a written timeline and how they handle changes mid-project, it saves a lot of headaches. I’m John Smith with First Choice Builders and we do a lot of baths in the area. Happy to share photos of recent ones if you message me.

Questions
Questions from contractors
Yes. Choose keywords for the work you want, add skip phrases for the work you don’t, and mark anything that isn’t a fit as “Not a lead” so it learns.
It screens out promotional posts from other businesses. If one slips through, tap “Not a lead” and it learns.
You can send new leads to a Slack channel your team watches, and get a daily or weekly email report of new, replied and open leads.
