Web design for builders

Homeowners hire builders they trust. A website that shows finished work, real credentials and a straight way to get a quote.

(01) What it needs

What a builder’s website needs.

Most people hiring a builder are about to spend more than they ever have on their home, and they are nervous. Before they call, they look for proof: finished projects like theirs, how long you have been going, who you are and whether you are insured.

Then they want a sense of the price and a simple way to ask. A site that answers those questions in the first minute wins the enquiry; one that only lists services sends people back to the search results.

  1. 01

    Projects, not stock photos

    Extensions, lofts and renovations you actually built, with the brief, the timeline and photos from start to finish.

  2. 02

    A quote form that asks the right things

    The type of job, the postcode, rough size and photos, so you can price it without a visit just to find out what it is.

  3. 03

    Trust up front

    Insurance, guarantees, trade memberships and reviews where people look for them, not hidden on an About page.

(02) The rules

What it must get right.

  1. 01

    Only badges you hold

    Showing a trade association or trust mark you are not entitled to use is banned outright under UK consumer law, so scheme logos only go on while you are a member.

  2. 02

    Prices and promises

    “From” prices, guarantees and “no hidden costs” must be true for the jobs you quote, under the UK advertising rules.

  3. 03

    Planning and building regs

    If you handle planning or building regulations sign-off, say exactly what you do and what the homeowner is responsible for.

A guide, not legal advice: we build the site to fit the rules you work under, and you confirm the details that are yours.

(03) Plans and prices

Fixed price. You know the number before we start.

Most builders need the Local Business site (£895): a page for each service and a proper project gallery. A one-page Starter site (£495) works if you are just starting out.

(04) The work

The closest we have built.

Concepts are sites we designed to show what is possible for a type of business. They are labelled as concepts, never passed off as client work.

(Questions)

Asked by builders

Can my website give instant quotes?

Yes. A quote tool that asks a few questions and gives a ballpark price is a custom feature, so we quote it after a call, with a fixed price. Our CJO Developments concept has one: see it.

Do I need a website if most of my work comes from word of mouth?

Usually, yes. People who are recommended to you still look you up before they call, and a site with your finished work turns that look into an enquiry.

Can you help me get jobs in nearby towns?

Yes. We say clearly where you work, connect the site to your Google Business Profile and give each service its own page. Local SEO goes further.

Tell us what you need, and you’ll have a fixed price and a date within 24 to 48 hours.
