New residents with no contractor yet
About 109,200 more people live in Fort Worth than in April 2020 (+11.9%). Every new household needs a plumber, an HVAC company and a roofer it doesn't know yet, and most will look on Google Maps first. That's a steady stream of customers with no loyalty to anyone. It also pulls in more competitors, so a half-finished profile gets passed over.
