The best marketing agency for an Australian kitchen and bathroom renovator in 2026 is the one judged on booked revenue: measure-and-quote visits held and jobs signed, not impressions. Our ranking: 1. LeadsNow, paid on results and accountable for the booked visit; 2. Smith Brothers Media, a full-service Melbourne agency with a published kitchen, bathroom and laundry renovator case study; 3. Supple, an SEO agency with a dedicated kitchen renovation SEO service.
- #1 LeadsNow: pay-per-result lead generation and appointment setting; books the in-home measure and quote.
- #2 Smith Brothers Media: full-service agency in Cheltenham, Victoria: SEO, Google Ads, social ads, brand, web and video.
- #3 Supple: search-led agency with offices in Melbourne, Sydney and Perth and a kitchen renovation SEO page.
- How to judge any of them: the Measure-and-Quote Cost Test below. In our worked example, A$9,000 a month buys enquiries at A$150 each but signed jobs at A$1,800 each, and slow follow-up alone pushes that to A$4,500.

How we chose and scored these agencies. LeadsNow publishes this page and ranks itself first. It is the only one of the three paid on booked outcomes, the yardstick this page uses. We looked for Australian marketing agencies that show kitchen or bathroom renovation work on their own site (a niche service page or a named renovator case study), then checked each live site on 27 October 2026. Entries were scored on that niche evidence and on the furthest sales stage the agency is accountable for. Agencies already on our Australian kitchen and bathroom lead generation and appointment setting lists were left out. No agency paid to be included, and every fact about Smith Brothers Media and Supple comes from their own pages.

FAQ
What is the best marketing agency for kitchen and bathroom renovators in Australia?
LeadsNow ranks first in this 2026 list because it is paid on results and accountable up to the held measure-and-quote visit. Smith Brothers Media suits renovators who need full-service brand, web and paid search, and Supple suits kitchen renovators who want search-led growth.
Should a renovator pay a retainer or pay per result?
A retainer suits building a brand, website and rankings, where no single booked visit can be credited. Pay per result suits a renovator who already gets enquiries but loses them before the measure visit. A renovator can use both.
Do Queensland renovators need their licence number in online ads?
Yes. The QBCC advertising guidance lists websites, social media pages and online service directories as advertising, and says licensees must show their licensed name and QBCC licence number in them.
How does LeadsNow charge a kitchen or bathroom renovator?
LeadsNow charges a revenue share, a fee per appointment, or a mix of both: 5–25% of the revenue it generates for you, or an equivalent pay-per-appointment fee, set by lead volume, what you sell and its price, your type of business and how much of the funnel it runs. No-shows aren’t charged, and you can cancel any time with 14 days notice. Details are on the pricing page.
1. LeadsNow: booked measure-and-quote visits, paid on results
LeadsNow ranks first for Australian kitchen and bathroom renovators because it is paid on results and its job ends at a held in-home measure and quote, not a click.
LeadsNow is a Melbourne-based pay-per-result AI lead generation and appointment setting agency. It calls, texts and messages each new enquiry within permitted calling hours, works old quotes and enquiries, and books qualified homeowners into a measure-and-quote visit or showroom appointment. Since 2017 LeadsNow has booked 50,769+ AI-booked sales appointments and generated 1M+ leads. Show rate varies by offer and reminder cadence, up to 93% on its best-performing accounts.
Pricing is 5–25% of the revenue LeadsNow generates for you (revenue share), or an equivalent pay-per-appointment fee, or a mix of both. The rate is set by lead volume, what is being sold and its price, the type of product and business, and which part (or all) of the sales funnel LeadsNow runs. You fund the ad spend; LeadsNow funds the team, management, testing and optimisation. No-shows aren’t charged, and bad ad creative, bad lists and the cost of contacting the thousands of people who never book are LeadsNow’s cost. The trade-offs are covered in pay-per-result vs retainer marketing agencies.
Who should pick a full-service agency instead: a renovator with no website worth sending traffic to, no project photography and no reviews. Fix those with an agency like #2 or #3 first, then judge everyone on held visits. The booking side alone is ranked in appointment setting agencies for kitchen and bathroom renovators in Australia.

2. Smith Brothers Media: full-service marketing with a renovator case study
Smith Brothers Media is a full-service marketing agency in Cheltenham, Victoria, offering SEO, Google Ads, Facebook and Instagram ads, brand design, websites and video production.
Its Inside Project case study describes work for a design and renovation company specialising in bathrooms, kitchens and laundries. Smith Brothers Media writes that research showed bathrooms were the less competitive of the two categories, so bathrooms got their own Google Ads campaign while SEO and ads ran together. In that case study the agency reports top-ten rankings for “bathroom designers”, which it says has over 8,000 searches a month, and a 48% rise in organic conversions from 2018 to 2019. Those are the agency’s own figures from a 2018 to 2019 campaign, not current rankings or an independent benchmark. Its homepage lists the service menu.
Fits: a renovator who wants brand, website, video and paid search from one team. Ask: whether “conversions” means form fills or measure visits held, and who calls the enquiry back.
3. Supple: search-led marketing for kitchen renovation companies
Supple is an SEO-led digital agency based in Richmond, Victoria, with Sydney and Perth offices and a service page built for kitchen renovation businesses.
The Supple kitchen renovation SEO page argues that a renovator whose site is not optimised for search is unlikely to be seen by homeowners comparing options, and pitches local SEO, Google Business Profile work and on-page and off-page SEO. Supple’s wider menu also includes PPC, content, web design and social media marketing.
Fits: a kitchen renovator who wants to rank for suburb and service searches and can wait for SEO to build. Ask: how organic leads will be tracked through to signed jobs, since an SEO report can stop at traffic.

The Measure-and-Quote Cost Test: judging a renovation marketing agency on booked revenue
The Measure-and-Quote Cost Test divides one month of total marketing cost by each stage from enquiry to signed job, so a renovator sees what every reported metric really costs.
No credible public benchmark exists for Australian kitchen and bathroom enquiry-to-job rates, so every input below is an assumption. Use your own job records. The example renovator spends A$9,000 a month in total (A$5,000 agency fee plus A$4,000 ad spend) and signs work at an average job value of A$30,000. Real job values vary by scope, finish and state.
| Stage | Example volume (assumption) | Stage rate (assumption) | Cost per unit at A$9,000 a month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Enquiries | 60 | n/a | A$150 each |
| Measure-and-quote visits booked | 25 | about 42% of enquiries | A$360 each |
| Visits held | 20 | 80% of booked | A$450 each |
| Jobs signed | 5 | 25% of held | A$1,800 each |
| Job revenue | A$150,000 | 5 x A$30,000 | 6% of revenue |
Now change one assumption. If slow callbacks mean only 10 of the same 60 enquiries book and 8 of those hold, the same A$9,000 buys 2 signed jobs at a 25% close rate: A$4,500 per job, or 15% of A$60,000 in revenue. The agency report shows 60 enquiries both months. That is why this page ranks agencies on how far down the funnel they are accountable, and why speed to lead for trade businesses matters more than another A$1,000 of ad spend. To build the stage counts from your own CRM, see how to track which leads become booked jobs.
Full-service agency or performance model: which suits a renovator?
A kitchen and bathroom renovator should hire a full-service agency when the brand and website are the bottleneck, and a performance model when enquiries arrive but measure visits do not.
| Where the funnel breaks | What you see | Agency type to hire first |
|---|---|---|
| Visibility | Few enquiries, weak search rankings, thin portfolio | Full-service or SEO-led agency (#2, #3) |
| Booking | Enquiries arrive, few become measure visits | Pay-per-result booking model (#1) |
| Attendance | Visits booked, homeowners not home or cancelling | Booking model with reminders (#1) |
| Old quotes | Dozens of quotes sent and never answered | Database reactivation before buying new leads |
A renovator can have more than one break. Fix the one closest to revenue first: a booking leak wastes every dollar a full-service agency spends above it. For how to screen the visits once booked, read how kitchen renovators qualify leads before quoting.
What QBCC advertising rules mean for a Queensland renovator’s marketing agency
Queensland’s QBCC requires every licensee’s advertising, including websites, social media pages and online directories, to show the licensed name and QBCC licence number.
The QBCC advertising page says ads must contain the name under which the licensee is licensed (a trading name alone will most likely be non-compliant), state that the licence is held under the QBCC Act with the licence number, be legible and reasonably prominent, and not be false or misleading, including by omission. Unlicensed contractors must state the value of work they can do without a licence. So every Facebook ad, landing page and directory listing an agency builds needs those details; ask how it checks before an ad goes live. Other states have their own regulators. General information, not legal advice.
What to ask a marketing agency before a kitchen or bathroom renovator signs
Five questions separate a kitchen and bathroom marketing agency that reports activity from one accountable for booked revenue.
- What stage do you report to: impressions, enquiries, booked measure visits, held visits or signed jobs?
- Who calls a new enquiry, and how fast, at 7pm on a Saturday?
- How are kitchen and bathroom campaigns split, given they compete for different searches?
- Where will our licence details appear on every ad and landing page?
- What happens to the quotes we sent last year that never got an answer?
Enquiry-stage costs are on the kitchen renovation lead cost in Australia and bathroom renovation lead cost in Australia pages; broader options on the kitchen renovation lead generation, bathroom renovation lead generation and trades hubs.
