How to use

Option 1: Search by query (recommended)

Set Search Queries to your desired locations:

{
    "searchQueries": [
        "plumbers in Dallas TX",
        "emergency plumber Miami FL",
        "plumbers near Denver CO"
    ],
    "maxResults": 200
}

Option 2: Auto-expand by city list

Provide a list of cities and the actor generates "plumbers in [city]" queries automatically:

{
    "cities": ["Atlanta GA", "Seattle WA", "Portland OR"],
    "maxResults": 300
}

Option 3: Direct Google Maps URLs

Paste Google Maps search or business URLs directly:

{
    "startUrls": [
        { "url": "https://www.google.com/maps/search/plumbers+in+Chicago" }
    ],
    "maxResults": 100
}

Option 4: Default run (no input required)

Run with zero configuration — the actor automatically searches the top 5 US cities for plumbing businesses and returns up to 20 results.

Technical notes

• Extracts from the search results feed via scrolling (no per-place page navigation)
• Automatic deduplication by business name per query

Legal & ethical use

This actor extracts publicly available data from Google Maps. Use in compliance with Google's Terms of Service and applicable data privacy laws (GDPR, CCPA). Do not use scraped data for spam or unsolicited outreach without user consent.

What is USA Plumbers Scraper?

USA Plumbers Scraper turns the target data into structured, reusable results on Apify. Use it when you need repeatable collection for sales teams, agencies, recruiters, market researchers, and data-enrichment workflows without maintaining a custom scraper or one-off integration. Run it manually, schedule recurring jobs, call it through the Apify API, or connect it to an AI agent through the Apify MCP server.

The Actor stores results in an Apify dataset, where they can be previewed and exported as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS. Availability and completeness depend on the source, supplied inputs, public visibility, authentication requirements, and upstream rate limits.

Use cases for USA Plumbers Scraper

• Build structured datasets for research, reporting, enrichment, or monitoring.
• Automate repetitive collection with schedules, webhooks, and API calls.
• Feed clean records into spreadsheets, databases, CRMs, BI tools, AI agents, or RAG pipelines.
• Track changes over time by running the same validated input on a schedule.
• Replace fragile manual copy-and-paste work with a reproducible Apify workflow.

How to use USA Plumbers Scraper

1. Open the Actor input page and choose a focused, valid target.
2. Set a conservative result limit for the first run.
3. Start the Actor and inspect the dataset for coverage and field availability.

Frequently asked questions

How many results can I scrape with USA Plumbers Scraper?

The practical total depends on the source, input limits, pagination, available records, run timeout, and upstream restrictions. Start with a small run, verify the output, and increase the limit gradually.

Yes. Use Apify integrations, webhooks, schedules, dataset exports, Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, cloud storage, or your own application.

Can I use USA Plumbers Scraper with the Apify API?

Yes. Start runs with the Apify REST API or an official Apify client, then retrieve records from the run's default dataset. Keep your API token in a secret or environment variable.

Can I use USA Plumbers Scraper through an MCP Server?
