Rate Boost

Review generation software for plumbers

Plumbing is bought in a hurry by someone standing in water. They search, they look at the stars, they call the top result. Rate Boost makes sure the top result is you.

Why reviews matter for plumbers

Emergency plumbing is close to a pure local-search purchase. There is no research phase, no shortlist and no brand preference. The customer opens Google, sees three map results, and calls whichever combines a good rating with enough reviews to look real. Review volume is effectively your marketing.

When to send the request

Send the request the evening of the job, after the invoice is settled. A plumber who asks while still packing up gets a yes and no review; a text three hours later, once the sink is visibly working, gets the review.

Sample request

"Hi Dave, glad we got that leak sorted today. If you have a minute, a quick Google review really helps us reach more people locally. - Tom, Riverside Plumbing"

The objection we hear most

"My customers are not the review-writing type." Response rate depends far more on when and how you ask than on who the customer is. A same-day text with a direct link converts several times better than a business card with a QR code on it.

How Rate Boost fits

Rate Boost sends the request for you at the right moment, routes customers who rate the visit highly straight to your Google Business Profile, and sends anyone who rates it poorly to a private form instead. It costs $49.99 per month for one business, with no contract. See how it works or full pricing.

Plumbers: common questions

How do plumbers get more Google reviews?

The most reliable method is asking every customer the same day the job is finished, by text, with a direct link to your Google review form. Manual asking fails not because customers refuse but because tradespeople are on the next job by the time they remember. Automating the send is what makes it consistent.

Should plumbers ask for reviews on the job or afterwards?

Afterwards. Asking on site puts the customer on the spot while they are still paying and gets a polite yes that rarely turns into a posted review. A text sent a few hours later, when the repair has visibly held, reaches them when they can actually act on it.
