How does Instagram decide who sees a post?
Instagram now ranks heavily on sends — how many people share your post into a DM or a WhatsApp group. Saves come next, then watch time on Reels. Likes barely register any more. Reels reach people who do not follow you; feed posts and carousels mostly reach people who already do, which is why you need both. The words in your name field, bio and captions are searchable, so putting 'bridal makeup Islamabad' in the name field does more than thirty hashtags.
Formats, lengths, caption limits and the best posting windows in Pakistan Standard Time are the same whatever trade you are in, so they live in one place rather than being repeated on every guide.

Instagram first. After it is running steadily, these are the next platforms worth your time in this trade — in this order.

| TikTok | #2 | 5 clips per week | Rip-outs, tiling and waterproofing are satisfying to watch and put you in front of people whose monsoon problem starts next month. |

Instagram questions from home renovation contractors
Is Instagram actually worth it for home renovation contractors?
Before-and-after Reels of a finished bathroom or kitchen get saved and forwarded inside families who decide together. We would rank it number 3 of the platforms worth your time in this trade, and run it at 4 reels per week.
How often should a home renovation service business post on Instagram?
4 Reels per week. That figure is set by what this trade can sustain, not by what the platform would like. Posting three times a week for a year beats posting daily for a month and then stopping.
Should home renovation contractors be on Instagram before anything else?
No. Facebook comes first for home renovation contractors — Instagram is number 3 here. It is worth adding once the first platform is steady, for the reason above.
What is the first thing a home renovation service account gets wrong on Instagram?
Posting about the business instead of about the customer's problem. Seepage jobs all arrive in the same three weeks of July, then nobody calls again until next July. That is what your Instagram posts should be answering, in 4 reels per week
What does it cost to have someone run my Instagram account?
From PKR 15,000 a month with us. For home renovation contractors we usually recommend Business bundle at from PKR 25,000. Your customers search seepage repair Islamabad the week it rains. A site, a Google Business Profile carrying photos of finished jobs and steady posting is what puts you inside that search.
