EXCLUSIVE WATER & FIRE RESTORATION LEAD SYSTEM
Generate More Emergency Damage and Restoration Leads With One Flat Management Fee.
Your restoration company pays Google, Meta or another approved platform directly. For a flat $2,500 monthly management fee, LeadStead manages the acquisition system behind the calls — including emergency-service campaigns, landing pages, call tracking, lead qualification and ongoing optimization.
There are no per-lead charges. Before launch, we agree on a measurable 30-day performance benchmark based on your restoration services, territory, operating hours and advertising budget. If LeadStead does not meet that agreed benchmark, your first month’s $2,500 management fee is refunded.

WHAT COUNTS AS A RESTORATION LEAD
You Need Water Mitigation and Fire Jobs. We Filter Out the Unrelated Calls.
Restoration inquiries are often urgent and can range from a burst pipe or flooded basement to sewage backup, storm damage or larger commercial water loss. Before launch, we define the exact services, territory and exclusions that determine whether an inquiry is qualified and what counts toward the agreed performance benchmark.
A Qualified Restoration Lead
A lead generally qualifies when the prospective customer:
- Is actively requesting a restoration service included in your campaign
- Is located within the service area you have approved
- Provides valid contact information your team can use to respond quickly
- Is a genuine homeowner, tenant where appropriate, property manager, business or organization seeking restoration help
- Meets any additional loss-type, property-type, timing or campaign criteria agreed upon before launch
Depending on your company, campaigns may target water damage restoration, emergency water extraction, flooded basements, burst pipes, sewage backup, structural drying, storm damage, mold remediation, fire and smoke restoration or other approved property-restoration services.
What Does Not Count
Inquiries that fall outside the qualification rules are excluded from qualified-lead reporting and from the performance benchmark, including:
- Spam, bots or fraudulent submissions
- Job seekers or employment inquiries
- Vendors and sales solicitations
- Properties outside the territory you agreed to serve
- Requests for services your restoration company does not provide
- Invalid or unusable contact information
- Duplicate leads within the agreed duplicate window
- Inquiries outside any agreed service, property, timing or loss-type requirements
Qualification Rules Are Agreed Upon Before Launch
Before advertising begins, LeadStead and your team define the restoration services to promote, the territory to target and the situations that should not count.
If an inquiry does not meet those agreed criteria, it is not counted as a qualified restoration lead or toward the agreed performance benchmark.
Generated for Your Restoration Company. Not Resold to Your Competitors.
SIMPLE, PREDICTABLE PRICING
One Flat Management Fee. You Control the Advertising Budget.
Two Separate Costs. No Per-Lead Billing.
Your advertising spend and LeadStead’s management fee are separate. Your company funds the media directly, while LeadStead charges a flat $2,500 monthly fee to manage the acquisition program.
The campaign has two primary cost components:
1. Your Advertising Spend
Your restoration company pays Google, Meta or another approved advertising platform directly for the media.
A minimum $5,000 monthly media budget is required. You approve the maximum monthly spend and can adjust it around demand, operating hours and response capacity.
2. LeadStead’s Flat Management Fee
LeadStead charges a flat $2,500 monthly management fee for campaign strategy, Google and Meta Ads management where appropriate, landing pages, call and form tracking, qualification, reporting and ongoing optimization.
There are no additional per-lead charges. The $2,500 management fee stays the same whether the campaign generates 10 qualified opportunities or 100.
What That Can Look Like
Here is a simplified example of a water-damage restoration campaign:
Monthly Advertising Budget
$10,000
Qualified Leads Generated
25
Advertising Cost per Qualified Lead
$400
LeadStead Management Fee
$2,500 flat monthly fee
Per-Lead Charges
$0
Total Campaign Cost: $12,500
Illustrative Effective Cost per Qualified Lead: $500
In this example, the restoration company spends $10,000 directly on advertising and pays LeadStead a flat $2,500 management fee. If the campaign generates 25 qualified opportunities, the combined illustrative acquisition cost is $500 per qualified opportunity.
Your Actual Numbers Will Depend on Your Market and Loss Types
Restoration lead costs can vary significantly by market, competition, urgency, service type and time of day. A flooded basement, sewage backup, burst pipe or large commercial water loss can each produce very different acquisition economics.
That is why we review the restoration services you want to promote, your response territory, operating hours, capacity and expected job economics before recommending a budget.
The goal is not simply to generate the cheapest calls or forms possible. The goal is to produce legitimate restoration opportunities at an acquisition cost that makes sense for your business.
Example is for illustration only. Actual restoration lead volume, media cost and project value will vary. The specific 30-day performance benchmark for your campaign is agreed in writing before launch.
30-DAY PERFORMANCE GUARANTEE
We Agree on the Benchmark Before You Commit to the First 30 Days.
Before launch, LeadStead and your team agree in writing on a measurable first-30-day performance benchmark based on the restoration services being promoted, your service territory, operating hours, response capacity, market competition and approved advertising budget.
1. Set a Real Performance Target
The benchmark can combine qualified restoration lead volume and an agreed maximum advertising cost per qualified lead. It is tailored to the actual services, territory and operating window being promoted.
2. LeadStead Manages the First 30 Days
We manage the campaigns, emergency landing pages, tracking and optimization while measuring only inquiries that satisfy the qualification rules agreed before launch.
3. Miss the Benchmark? We Refund the Fee.
If LeadStead does not meet the agreed first-30-day benchmark, we refund the first month’s $2,500 management fee, subject to the agreed program conditions.
The guarantee applies to LeadStead’s management fee only. Advertising spend paid directly to Google, Meta or another media platform is not refundable by LeadStead. The guarantee also requires the agreed advertising budget, campaign access, approvals, tracking setup and operating conditions to remain in place during the measurement period.
HOW WE GENERATE YOUR RESTORATION LEADS
We Manage the Acquisition System Behind the Emergency Calls
A homeowner with standing water in a basement behaves very differently from someone casually researching a future home project. Restoration campaigns need to capture urgent intent quickly and route the inquiry to the right team.

- Meta Ads where appropriate
- Emergency-service campaign strategy
- High-intent keyword, location and urgency targeting
- Ad copy

- Copy
- Design and development
- Lead forms
- Mobile conversion
- A/B testing
- Ongoing optimization
Tracking
- Conversion tracking
- Call tracking
- Form tracking
- Campaign attribution
- Source tracking
- Analytics
Lead Qualification
- Agreed restoration qualification criteria
- Service-area validation
- Service-type, territory and urgency validation
- Duplicate handling
- Spam and invalid-lead review
Lead Delivery

- CRM routing
- Other approved integrations
Campaign & Project-Mix Optimization
- Search-term and query review
- Budget allocation by service, campaign, location or operating window
- Ads
- Landing pages
- Conversion rates
- Lead quality, urgency and restoration service mix
- Campaign efficiency and cost per qualified lead
Once the lead reaches your business, your team remains responsible for answering quickly, dispatching or scheduling the response, inspecting the loss, explaining the work, obtaining authorization and completing the restoration service.
HOW THE RESTORATION LEAD PROGRAM WORKS
From Market Review to Faster Restoration Lead Flow
Define the Restoration Services You Want
We review the restoration services you want more of, your service territory, operating hours, emergency response capacity and growth goals.
Set Qualified Lead Criteria
Together we define what counts as qualified, including loss type, service area, property type, timing and agreed exclusions.
Approve the Advertising Budget
You approve the advertising budget and maximum spending range before launch.
Build & Launch the Program
LeadStead builds the campaigns, emergency landing pages, call tracking, conversion tracking and lead-routing workflow required for launch.
Review Call Quality & Loss Types
We review call quality, form inquiries, loss types and acquisition cost, then optimize toward the restoration opportunities your company values most.
Scale the Campaigns That Perform
When a service, campaign, location or operating window is producing acceptable economics, volume can be increased within your approved budget and response capacity.
WHO THIS MODEL IS FOR
Designed for Restoration Companies Ready to Handle More Emergency Calls and Losses
LeadStead’s managed restoration marketing program is designed for established companies that already have trained technicians, response systems and proven operating processes and want a more measurable way to generate additional work.
Who It Is Best Suited For:
- Operate an established water-damage or property-restoration company
- Have technicians and response capacity for additional losses
- Can answer urgent calls quickly and respond within your advertised service window
- Have a reliable dispatch, intake or on-call process
- Can document, follow up and move qualified losses into active jobs
- Understand average job value, close rate, insurance involvement and customer acquisition economics
- Can support a meaningful monthly customer-acquisition budget
- Want more predictable restoration lead flow beyond referrals, plumbers and insurance relationships
- Want a predictable management fee with clear first-30-day performance accountability
It May Not Be the Right Fit If:
- You only want to spend a few hundred dollars per month on advertising
- Urgent calls routinely go unanswered or receive slow callbacks
- Your technicians or emergency response team are already at full capacity
- Your service territory, operating hours or target restoration services are unclear
- Your restoration operation is still working out its core service model or intake process
- Your team lacks a consistent intake, follow-up or job-conversion process
- You expect every qualified restoration lead to become a paying job
LeadStead is responsible for generating qualified opportunities. Your answer rate, response speed, technician professionalism, estimating process, insurance handling, reputation and follow-up ultimately determine how many leads become active restoration jobs.

RESTORATION LEAD GENERATION FAQ
Common Questions About LeadStead’s Restoration Marketing Program
How much does LeadStead charge for restoration marketing management?
LeadStead charges a flat $2,500 monthly management fee. There are no additional per-lead charges.
Your restoration company separately funds the advertising budget directly with Google, Meta or another approved platform. A minimum $5,000 monthly media budget is required.
Is advertising spend included in the $2,500 management fee?
No.
No. Advertising spend and LeadStead’s $2,500 monthly management fee are separate costs.
Your restoration company pays Google, Meta or another approved advertising platform directly for the media.
LeadStead does not charge an additional fee for each qualified restoration lead generated.
Who pays Google or Meta for the advertising?
Your business does.
The advertising platform bills your company directly for the media.
Who owns the restoration advertising account?
Your restoration company owns and controls the advertising account.
LeadStead receives the campaign-management access required to build, monitor and optimize the approved campaigns.
How does the 30-day performance guarantee work?
Before launch, LeadStead and your team agree on a measurable first-30-day benchmark based on the restoration services being promoted, your market, service territory, operating hours, response capacity and approved advertising budget.
If LeadStead does not meet that agreed benchmark during the measurement period, the first month’s $2,500 management fee is refunded, subject to the documented guarantee conditions.
Does the 30-day guarantee refund our Google or Meta advertising spend?
No. The guarantee applies only to LeadStead’s first-month $2,500 management fee. Advertising spend is paid directly by your company to the advertising platforms and is not refundable by LeadStead.
What counts as a qualified restoration lead?
Generally, a qualified restoration lead is a genuine prospective customer within your approved service area who is actively requesting one of the restoration services included in the campaign and provides enough valid information for your team to respond and pursue the opportunity.
The exact services, geography, operating windows and exclusions are documented before launch.
What happens if a restoration lead is spam or irrelevant?
Spam, fake inquiries, vendor calls, unsupported services, out-of-area inquiries and other agreed exclusions are not counted as qualified restoration leads or toward the agreed performance benchmark.
Your program terms define the qualification and lead-review process used for the campaign.
Are emergency phone calls counted as restoration leads?
Yes. An emergency or service call can qualify when the caller is genuinely requesting an approved restoration service and meets the other agreed criteria.
Wrong numbers, vendor solicitations and unrelated calls do not become qualified simply because the campaign number rang, and they do not count toward the performance benchmark.
How are restoration phone calls tracked?
Dedicated campaign phone numbers can route calls directly to your restoration company while allowing LeadStead to attribute the call to the advertising source and campaign.
Depending on the setup, call duration, answer status, recordings, transcripts and qualification status may also be reviewed to understand lead quality.
Do you use our existing restoration website?
Not always.
Not necessarily. Your existing site can be used when it supports the campaign properly, but dedicated emergency-service landing pages often provide tighter control over messaging, tracking, call conversion and testing.
Can campaign pages use our restoration company branding?
Yes.
Yes. Campaign pages can use your restoration company’s branding and may operate on a subdomain such as emergency.yourcompany.com or another approved address.
Why is there a minimum advertising budget?
Water-damage and emergency restoration search traffic can be highly competitive. The campaign needs enough budget to capture meaningful high-intent demand and produce enough qualified calls and forms for reliable optimization.
A very small budget may not generate enough qualified restoration inquiries to evaluate performance reliably.
Can I set a maximum advertising budget?
Yes.
Yes. Your company can approve a maximum monthly advertising budget and LeadStead manages within those limits.
Can lead volume be adjusted around emergency response capacity?
There is no arbitrary lead cap and no additional per-lead charge simply because the campaign is performing well.
Lead volume can be increased, reduced or redirected based on technician availability, emergency response capacity, operating hours, territory and your approved budget.
What happens if the campaign generates more leads than we can handle?
If your team reaches response capacity, campaign schedules, budgets, services or territories can be adjusted.
The objective is to keep lead volume aligned with your ability to answer quickly, dispatch or schedule response, and complete the restoration work.
Restoration lead generation works best when your team can respond quickly enough to capture urgent demand before the customer moves on.
What restoration services can the campaign target?
Depending on your company and market, campaigns may target restoration services such as:
- Water damage restoration
- Emergency water extraction
- Flooded basements and burst pipes
- Sewage backup cleanup
- Structural drying and dehumidification
- Mold remediation where offered
- Storm, fire and smoke restoration where offered
- Commercial and property-management restoration
- Other approved restoration services
Is LeadStead a restoration lead vendor or a managed marketing partner?
LeadStead operates as a managed customer-acquisition partner rather than a traditional shared-lead marketplace.
LeadStead manages the advertising, emergency landing pages, call tracking, qualification, lead-delivery infrastructure and ongoing optimization for a flat monthly management fee. Qualified leads are used to measure campaign performance and the 30-day guarantee, not as an additional billing unit. Leads generated through your dedicated campaign are not resold by LeadStead to competing restoration companies.
