The problem

Alexandria Home Solutions serves the Southfield and greater Metro Detroit area with windows, siding, roofing, decking, and general home improvement. At campaign start, the profile was split: core terms like window and siding installation were already strong, while broader home improvement and all roofing/deck terms were significantly underperforming. The roofing keywords ranged from just 8% to 43% visibility with near-zero Map Pack presence.

The strategy: lock in the saturated terms while systematically building the roofing and deck keywords from the bottom up.

Business impact
Alexandria Home Solutions now dominates the Map Pack across its core services in Metro Detroit. Window installation reaches 100% of the grid at position 1–3, meaning every homeowner in the Southfield area who searches for window installation sees Alexandria Home Solutions at the top of Google Maps — ahead of every competitor, every time.

The home improvement and siding terms have followed the same path, with 83% and 89% Map Pack coverage respectively. For a contractor whose business depends on homeowners finding them when they are actively ready to buy, this level of visibility translates directly into inbound calls and quote requests that previously went to competitors. The roofing and deck terms are earlier in their trajectory but already showing consistent monthly gains — as those terms build toward the Map Pack, the pipeline of inbound leads from those service lines will grow alongside them.

Key takeaway
The core terms — window and siding — are locked in at near-full Map Pack saturation and being held. The mid-tier home improvement and deck terms are converting fast. The roofing terms, the most competitive in the set, are building their green cores outward bracket by bracket. Every keyword improved. The campaign is on track.

How We Maintain These Results

Achieving strong Map Pack coverage is only half the job. Local rankings are dynamic — competitors optimize, Google updates its algorithm, and signals need to stay fresh. These are the ongoing workstreams that protect and continue to grow the results above:

GBP active management

Weekly posts, photo updates, and service descriptions keep the listing signaling relevance to Google. Inactive listings lose ground to competitors who post consistently.

Review pipeline

A steady flow of recent reviews is one of the strongest Map Pack trust signals. We monitor, respond to, and encourage reviews on an ongoing basis.

Citation monitoring

NAP consistency can drift as directories update their data. We monitor and correct any inconsistencies that appear across the citation network.

Ranking velocity tracking

Monthly grid snapshots track whether each keyword is holding, gaining, or showing early signs of slippage so we can respond before rankings drop.

Opportunity expansion

As the green core saturates, we shift optimization focus to the next ring of grid points. Progress compounds: each new zone captured becomes the foundation for the next.

The long game
Local SEO compounds. The rankings documented in this case study are not a one-time result that will hold on its own — they are the product of sustained, consistent optimization. The same methodology that built these numbers is what keeps them and grows them. That is why clients who stay with the campaign see results improve month over month, not just at launch.

Alexandria Home Solutions is one of seven clients featured in our full local SEO breakdown. See how the same methodology delivered results across plumbing, HVAC, legal, medical, and kitchen design in our comprehensive Local SEO Case Study.
