Google review gap calculator for HVAC companies

Homeowners compare review counts on the map. Put in your count, the top shop's count, your jobs a month and how many customers leave a review to see how long it takes to catch up.

The math

How it's worked out.

No hidden numbers. Here's every step.

  • Reviews a month = finished jobs a month x share who leave a review
  • Months to catch up = (their reviews - your reviews) / (your reviews a month - their reviews a month)
  • If they add reviews as fast as you, you never catch up, so the tool says so
Improve the number

Three ways to move it.

Ask after every job

A text right after the job, while the customer is happy, gets far more reviews than asking now and then.

Ask everyone

Google's rules say don't pick and choose who gets asked. Asking everyone is also how the count grows.

Reply to every review

Replies show the next homeowner that a real owner is paying attention.
