# Video Ads for Local Service Businesses

Video ads and tips for HVAC, plumbing, roofing, cleaning and landscaping companies — the problem, the fix, the number to call.

Canonical page: https://www.veedio.co/tools/local-service-business-video-ads
Search intent: A US home-services owner who wants video ads and social posts for their trade and has no marketing person or video budget.

## What it produces

- 5 to 8 scenes, each with one spoken line and one generated frame
- A minute by default; 30, 60, 90 or 180 seconds are selectable in the composer (paid plans to 180s). Scene length comes from the narration's true duration
- ElevenLabs voiceover: 5 voices, narrating in any of 29 languages
- Word-timed captions burned in from the voice model's own character alignment
- A licensed music bed, ducked under the narration, loudness-normalised master
- 9:16, 1:1 or 16:9, 1080-class, no watermark on any plan

## Preset applied on this page

- Source type: prompt
- Voice: josh
- Captions: bold-center
- Music: uplifting
- Visual style: documentary
- Aspect ratio: 9:16

## The brief this page adds, verbatim

This string is prepended to whatever the visitor types before the scriptwriter
sees it — in the free preview on this page, in the video you generate after
clicking through to the composer, and in the API when you send
`preset: "local-service-business-video-ads"`. It is the only difference between this page and
the others.

> Write a short video ad or tip for a local home-services business. Open on the homeowner’s problem or the warning sign they have noticed, explain it plainly, then give the offer exactly as the user wrote it and a clear call to action. Sound like a trusted local tradesperson, not a commercial. Never invent prices, licences, guarantees, reviews or response times.

## Example inputs from the page

- AC tune-up special in Phoenix before summer — $89, same-week appointments
- Four signs your water heater is about to fail, from a plumber in Columbus
- Free roof inspection after the hail storm in Denver — we photograph everything and you keep the report

## Free with an account

The widget on the page runs the real scriptwriter with this preset and returns the
script, the per-scene image prompts and the estimated runtime. That needs a free
account — it takes a moment and no card — and costs no credits. Rendering the
visuals, voiceover and final file does spend credits.

## How it works

1. **Type the service and offer** — The job, the city and the deal, or a warning sign homeowners should know.
2. **Problem, fix, call** — The script starts at the homeowner’s problem and ends on your offer.
3. **Post or run as an ad** — Publish to Instagram, TikTok and YouTube from the app, or upload it as ad creative.

## Seasonal ads, made the week you need them

Home services run on seasons: AC before the heat, furnaces before the cold, roofs after the storm, gutters in the fall. The ad that wins is the one that is running the week homeowners start worrying, and that week is rarely when a video crew is free. This makes the seasonal ad from one sentence, the day you decide to run it.

Each script opens on the homeowner’s problem or the warning sign they have noticed, explains it the way a trusted tradesperson would, then gives your offer and the call to action. It reads like advice first and an ad second, which is what earns the call.

## Trust, not hype

In the trades, a claim you cannot back costs more than the job. The brief never invents prices, licences, guarantees, reviews or response times — say “licensed and insured” or “same-week appointments” and it will use them; leave them out and it will not make them up.

It does not film your trucks or your crew. Every scene is generated from the script, so the video shows the furnace, the leak or the roof rather than your team. One photo of your truck or crew can be the opening frame, added in the composer.

## Tips between the ads

Between campaigns, the same tool makes the tip videos that make a local company the one homeowners remember: the four signs of a failing water heater, what to do when the AC freezes, how to tell hail damage from wear. Those are the posts people save and share.

## Who it is for

- **HVAC companies** — Tune-up and replacement ads timed to the season, and the tips between them.
- **Plumbers** — Warning-sign videos that turn into service calls.
- **Roofers and exterior contractors** — Storm-response ads the week after the storm, not a month later.
- **Cleaning, landscaping and pest control** — Seasonal offers and recurring-service explainers.

## Compared with making it the usual way

| | The usual way | With Veedio |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Input | Hire a local video crew, schedule them around jobs, approve the cut. | The service, the city and the offer, typed between jobs. |
| Visuals | Your own crew and trucks on camera. | Generated scenes of the problem and the fix; a truck or crew photo can open it. |
| Voiceover | Book a VO artist, or record yourself and cut the breaths out. | Five ElevenLabs voices, re-recorded free whenever the line changes. |
| Captions | Auto-captions that drift, then an hour nudging keyframes. | Burned in from the voice model’s own word alignment, so they land on the syllable. |
| Turnaround | Weeks, so the storm ad runs after the claims are filed. | Minutes, so the ad runs the week homeowners need it. |
| Changing it | Re-record the line, re-cut the timeline, re-export, re-upload. | Edit the line and only its voice is re-recorded, free. A new still is free too; a new motion clip is free once per video. |

## FAQ

### Can I run these as Facebook, Instagram or TikTok ads?

Yes. Download the file and upload it as ad creative in the platform’s ad manager. You own the videos on every plan and can use them commercially, paid ads included. There is no watermark on any plan, the export is 1080p, and the music beds are licensed for commercial use with no attribution.

### Will it show my crew and trucks?

Only in the opening frame: one photo can open the video, added in the composer. Every scene after it is generated.

### Will it make up guarantees or prices?

No. The brief forbids invented prices, licences, guarantees, reviews and response times. It uses only what you type.

### Can I try it before I pay?

Yes. Your first video is free: 30 seconds in pictures, with voice, music and captions. No card. AI motion, videos longer than 30 seconds and sound effects need a plan, from $7 a month.

### How much does it cost for a home-services company?

Plans are monthly: Mini $7 (200 credits), Starter $19 (600 credits), Pro $49 (2,000 credits), Studio $149 (7,500 credits). A five-scene short in pictures costs 13 credits; with AI motion in every scene it costs 68. You see the price before you generate, and the first payment on any plan has a 7-day money-back guarantee. Starter ($19 a month, 600 credits) covers about 46 five-scene shorts in pictures, or about 8 with AI motion in every scene.

### Can it post to our social accounts?

Connect TikTok, Instagram and YouTube once and publish to TikTok, Reels and Shorts from the app, on every plan. Mini connects 1 account, Starter 3, Pro 6 and Studio 25.

### Can it post seasonal tips automatically?

Auto-Mode is on Pro ($49 a month, 3 workers) and Studio ($149, 10 workers). Give it a topic or an RSS feed and a cadence — every day, every 2 days, every 3 days, every week — and each run writes, renders and publishes a new video to the accounts you connected.

### Can it be in Spanish?

Yes. The narration and captions can be in any of 29 languages, Spanish included, chosen in the composer.

### Do I have to sign up to try this?

Yes, a free one. Signup takes a moment and needs no card. Once you are signed in, the box at the top writes the script and the shot list for no credits — that is the part that decides whether the video is worth making.

### What does it cost?

Starter is $19 a month for 600 credits, Pro $49, Studio $149. A credit is a unit of pipeline cost rather than a video, so a five-scene short costs less than a nine-scene one, and you see the estimate before you spend anything.

### Do I own the videos, and is there a watermark?

You own them, on every plan, and there is no watermark on any plan, no resolution cap and no platform withheld. Four things do follow the plan, because they are what a video costs to make: AI motion and sound effects need Starter, and a presenter avatar and the choice of video model need Pro. Everything else — every voice, every language, every caption style, every aspect ratio — is the same on all of them.
