About the client

A family-owned renovation specialist transforming high-quality residential builds through a craftsmanship-first model.

Tilghman Builders, a family-owned renovation company, specializes in high-quality projects from additions and in-law suites to major kitchen and exterior remodels. Unlike competitors that rely on subcontractors, Tilghman's in-house team emphasizes craftsmanship, trust, pride, and long-term client service.

Though well-regarded in their community, their referral-only model limited growth in the digital age. Tilghman partnered with Redefine Web to revamp their digital identity, implement a multi-channel inbound marketing strategy, modernize branding, and generate consistent high-value leads — transforming their online presence and positioning them as an industry leader.

i The challenge

A trusted business with no scalable marketing engine.

When Tilghman Builders reached out, they were doing well operationally but lacked a scalable marketing system. Revenue was about $1.5 million, driven mostly by word-of-mouth and referrals. While their craftsmanship and client relationships were strong, their marketing didn't reflect their value, keeping them limited to smaller, less profitable projects.

Their website was outdated, lacked brand identity, and wasn't optimized for conversions. With no content strategy, they struggled to showcase expertise or attract larger projects. Their online portfolio was underwhelming, while direct mail used outdated imagery and had few measurable lead capture opportunities.

Their digital presence was minimal. Social media was inconsistent, visibility was low, and there was no lead nurturing system. They were paying large SEO retainers with no ROI, stagnant rankings, and few qualified leads. Tilghman had a strong offline reputation but needed a clear digital strategy to compete, attract bigger clients, and drive measurable growth.

ii The solutions

A complete inbound rebuild — brand, site, CRM, paid, and content compounding together.

Redefine Web executed a complete inbound marketing transformation — starting small with social media management, then progressing to a robust multi-channel, long-term strategy. We redesigned Tilghman's website, integrating HubSpot for lead tracking and conversion optimization, while aligning messaging to reflect their trusted, employee-driven craftsmanship.

Paid ad campaigns on Facebook and Google targeted key areas, driving qualified leads directly into their pipeline. We also modernized branding with a fresh identity, sophisticated portfolio presentation, and regular content campaigns — all designed to attract and nurture high-value remodeling clients.

  1. Custom website with industry-reflective design
    Modern WordPress build with optimized plugin stack, fast hosting, and a portfolio system that finally showed the work at full quality.
  2. HubSpot CRM + automation for tracking conversions
    Every form, call, and direct-mail QR scan logged to a real pipeline so spend could be measured against booked revenue.
  3. SEO-driven content aligned with buyer personas
    Content cadence built around the questions homeowners actually ask before committing to six-figure remodels.
  4. Paid ads on Facebook & Google for high-intent traffic
    Service-and-area-segmented campaigns with creative rotated against ICP profiles, not generic flyers.
  5. Branded direct-mail with trackable QR landing pages
    Direct mail tied back to digital — every piece carried a unique landing page so we knew which neighborhoods converted.
  6. Reputation building & social proof workflow
    Systematic review collection across Google and industry directories — the trust signal that closes high-ticket renovation work.
