High-Converting Roofing Landing Pages: Examples & Best Practices
High-Converting Roofing Landing Pages: Examples & Best Practices
Your Google Ads are crushing it. You’ve got great keywords, compelling ad copy, and Smart Bidding dialed in. You’re getting 100-200 clicks per month.
But here’s the problem: Only 4-5% of those clicks become leads.
You watch in frustration as:
- People land on your page
- Scroll for 3 seconds
- Leave
- Call your competitor instead
You’re spending $3,000/month on clicks. At 4% conversion rate, you’re getting 8-12 leads. If you could just get to 10% conversion rate, you’d triple your leads without spending another dollar.
Here’s the reality: Most roofing company websites are conversion killers.
They were built to look pretty, not to convert. They have:
- Slow load times (instant bounce)
- Generic stock photos (zero trust)
- No clear call-to-action (confused visitors leave)
- Forms buried three clicks deep (friction)
- Mobile nightmare (unreadable on phones)
The difference between a 4% landing page and a 12% landing page is worth $50,000-$100,000 per year in additional revenue for most roofing companies.
In this guide, I’ll show you exactly how to build landing pages that convert. You’ll see:
- What makes a high-converting roofing landing page
- Real examples (good and bad)
- The 11 essential elements every page needs
- Mobile optimization (70% of your traffic)
- A/B testing strategies
- Copy frameworks that work
By the end, you’ll know exactly what to fix on your current pages—or how to build new ones from scratch.
Let’s turn those clicks into customers.
What Is a Landing Page? (And Why Your Homepage Doesn’t Work)
First, let’s clarify what we mean by “landing page.”
Landing Page vs. Homepage
Homepage:
- Designed for everyone
- Showcases your entire business
- Multiple navigation options
- General information
- Multiple CTAs
Landing Page:
- Designed for ONE audience
- Focused on ONE offer
- Minimal navigation (often none)
- Specific to one ad/campaign
- ONE clear CTA
Example:
❌ Bad: Sending “emergency roof repair” clicks to homepage
- Homepage has: Services, About Us, Gallery, Blog, Contact
- Visitor searches “emergency roof repair”
- Clicks your ad
- Lands on homepage with 15 different links
- Gets distracted
- Leaves
✅ Good: Sending “emergency roof repair” clicks to dedicated landing page
- Headline: “Emergency Roof Repair in [City]”
- Focused message about emergency service
- ONE goal: Call now or fill form
- No navigation menu (keeps them focused)
- Visitor knows exactly what to do
Why Dedicated Landing Pages Convert 2-3× Better
Reason 1: Message Match
- Ad says “Emergency Roof Repair” → Landing page says “Emergency Roof Repair”
- Visitor feels they’re in the right place
- Trust increases
Reason 2: Focus
- One message, one offer, one CTA
- No distractions
- Clear path to conversion
Reason 3: Optimization
- Can A/B test specific to campaign
- Tailor content to keyword intent
- Optimize for mobile differently per service
The Numbers Don’t Lie
Sending traffic to homepage:
- Conversion rate: 2-5%
- At $30 CPC, 100 clicks = 2-5 leads
- Cost per lead: $600-$1,500
Sending traffic to dedicated landing page:
- Conversion rate: 8-15%
- At $30 CPC, 100 clicks = 8-15 leads
- Cost per lead: $200-$375
Same ad spend. 3× more leads.
The Anatomy of a High-Converting Roofing Landing Page
Let’s break down the 11 essential elements every roofing landing page needs.
Element 1: Hero Section (Above the Fold)
What “above the fold” means: What visitors see without scrolling.
This is your 3-second window to hook them.
The Hero Formula
1. Headline
- Must match the ad and search intent
- Specific, not generic
- Include location
❌ Bad: “Welcome to ABC Roofing”
✅ Good: “Emergency Roof Repair in Manhattan Beach | Available 24/7”
2. Subheadline
- Reinforce the main benefit
- Add credibility
Example: “Licensed & Insured Roofers | Same-Day Service | 500+ 5-Star Reviews”
3. Primary CTA Button
- Above the fold
- Contrasting color
- Action-oriented text
❌ Bad: “Submit” (generic)
✅ Good: “Get My Free Estimate” or “Call Now for Emergency Service”
4. Phone Number
- Large, clickable (especially mobile)
- Contrasting color
- Click-to-call on mobile
Example: Large button: 📞 (555) 123-4567 (CALL NOW)
5. Hero Image or Video
- Real photo of YOUR crew/work
- Not stock images
- Action shot preferred (crew on roof)
❌ Bad: Generic stock photo of a roof
✅ Good: Photo of your actual crew completing a recent job in the area

Element 10: Mobile Optimization
70-80% of roofing searches happen on mobile.
If your page isn’t perfect on mobile, you’re losing most of your leads.
Mobile Landing Page Must-Haves
1. Click-to-Call Button Large, prominent, always visible:
[📞 CALL NOW: (555) 123-4567]
Sticky button at top or bottom of screen
2. Fast Load Time
- Under 3 seconds or they bounce
- Compress images
- Minimize code
- Use lazy loading
3. Large Tap Targets
- Buttons: 44px+ height minimum
- Form fields: 50px+ height
- Easy to tap with thumb
4. Readable Text
- Font size: 16px minimum
- Line height: 1.5x font size
- High contrast (dark text, light background)
5. Simplified Form
- Fewer fields than desktop
- Auto-complete enabled
- Numeric keyboard for phone field
6. No Horizontal Scrolling
- Everything fits screen width
- Images resize properly
7. Sticky CTA
- Call button always visible
- Follows as they scroll
- Easy one-tap conversion
Mobile Page Speed Optimization
Test your speed:
- Google PageSpeed Insights
- GTmetrix
- Pingdom
Target:
- Mobile load time: Under 3 seconds
- PageSpeed score: 70+
How to improve:
- Compress images (use WebP format)
- Minimize JavaScript
- Use a CDN
- Enable browser caching
- Lazy load images
Element 11: Minimal Navigation (Controversial but Effective)
Traditional wisdom: Every page needs full navigation menu.
Landing page best practice: Remove or minimize navigation.
Why Remove Navigation?
With navigation:
- Visitor clicks “About Us” → Distracted
- Clicks “Services” → Goes elsewhere
- Clicks “Blog” → Never comes back
- 40-60% leave without converting
Without navigation:
- Focused on one page
- Only options: Call, fill form, or leave
- 10-15% conversion rate (higher)
The Compromise
Minimal navigation:
- Logo (links to homepage)
- Phone number
- CTA button
No:
- Full menu
- Dropdown menus
- Footer links to 20 pages
When to Use Full Navigation
If:
- Landing page is also a main service page on your site
- SEO considerations require internal linking
- You serve both paid and organic traffic
Then:
- Keep simple navigation
- But make CTA more prominent than nav
