Websites for Tradespeople
Menu

Built for UK trades

Websites for tradespeople. Yours to keep.

Phone-first websites for plumbers, electricians, builders, roofers, landscapers, carpenters, decorators, plasterers, tilers and handymen.

A tradespeople website has one job: turning somebody standing in their kitchen holding a phone into a call. That is what we build for.

Rated 5 out of 5 on Google.

How it works

Three steps from first call to live site

  1. 01

    Tell us the jobs you want and the towns you cover

    Three quick questions on the form or in a short phone call:

    • The work you want more of
    • The area you'll travel to
    • The accreditations you hold, from Gas Safe to NICEIC to CHAS

    One fixed price, scope and timescale in writing.

    Nothing to pay until you say yes.

  2. 02

    We build it. You check it on your phone.

    We write the words from that conversation, so your job is checking facts, not writing essays.

    Send job photos and a copy of your certificates from your phone, and we design the pages.

    You approve before we go live.

    Check a preview on your own phone before anything is published.

  3. 03

    Go live. Keep it yours.

    The site launches on a domain in your name, and every call and quote request comes straight to you.

    You get a handover note listing what you own and where it lives.

    Support is your choice.

    Hosting and care are optional monthly plans you can leave at the end of any paid month, and monthly SEO is there if you want Google sending more of the work.

What's included

What goes into a website we build for a trade

  • Your number. One tap. On every screen.

    The phone number sits at the top of every page and stays in thumb reach as the customer scrolls, with WhatsApp next to it if you use it.

    The quote form asks for a postcode, the job and a photo, then emails you and stores the enquiry so nothing gets lost. That is what makes it a lead generation website rather than an online brochure.

  • Accreditations a customer can check in a tap.

    Gas Safe, NICEIC, NAPIT, TrustMark, CHAS, FMB: each badge you hold gets a place near the top of the page, beside the quote button.

    Each one links to the register so the customer can see you're on it. If you don't hold it, it doesn't appear.

  • A page for each service. Real pages for your towns.

    Boiler swaps, consumer unit changes, flat roofs, patios: each job you want more of gets its own page with its own photos and quote button.

    If your patch is bigger than one town, the area pages say something true about each place, the jobs you've done there and how far you travel, instead of the same text with a different town at the top.

  • Your reviews. Your work. On your own site.

    The Google reviews you've earned are shown on the site, where the customer is already looking, not only on a directory profile that lists your competitors underneath.

    Job photos from your phone are enough for the gallery. A tidy before and after beats stock photography every time.

  • Fast on a phone. Even with two bars.

    Light pages, properly sized images and no pile of plugins, checked on a real phone rather than a desktop.

    The technical basics Google looks for go in during the build, so there's no separate project to bolt on later.

  • Yours outright. From launch day.

    The domain is registered in your name, the site files are yours to take anywhere, and so are the words and photos.

    Hosting and care are separate monthly plans. Leave them and the site goes with you, which is the opposite of a subscription builder where the site goes dark when the payments stop.

  • Client review
    “Used Websites for Tradespeople for a new website for my groundworks business in Manchester. John was easy to deal with and kept it simple. He asked for photos and details of the work we do and sorted everything else. We've now got a proper trade website with a page for each service, a gallery of our jobs and a quote form that comes straight to my phone. Fixed price, no surprises. If you're a builder or groundworker needing a web designer, give John a call.”

    “Had my landscaping and garden design website built by John at Websites for Tradespeople. I'm not great with computers but he made it painless and explained everything in plain English. The site looks smart, works well on mobile and customers can get in touch in a couple of clicks. Good value website design for gardeners and landscapers, and he was always quick to reply when I wanted something changed.”

    “John at Websites for Tradespeople did our website and local SEO for Cube Lofts & Extensions. He built separate pages for loft conversions, house extensions, garden rooms and garage conversions, plus pages for the areas we cover around Altrincham, Sale, Hale and South Manchester. The site is fast, looks professional and the quote form means we know what the job is before we ring back. Clear fixed price from the start. Would recommend to any builder wanting to show up on Google.”

Questions

Trades ask us

Costs, ownership and what happens next.
What are the best websites for trades?

If you mean places to find work, the well-known ones are Checkatrade, MyBuilder, Rated People and TrustATrader, and our Checkatrade alternatives guide compares them honestly. If you mean the best kind of website for a trade to have, it's one you own outright, where your number is one tap away, your accreditations are shown and linked, each service and town has its own page, and your reviews sit on the page rather than on someone else's profile. The live client sites further up this page show what that looks like.

Which website builder is best for tradesmen?

There are three routes: a DIY builder such as Wix or Squarespace if you have the time and do not need proper service-area pages; a pay-monthly builder aimed at trades, where the fee never stops and you should check who keeps the site and the domain if you leave; or a one-off build by someone who does trades, which costs more up front and is yours from day one. We do two of the three: our own trades builder from £9.99 a month including VAT, and the fixed-price build. Whichever you pick, compare the total over a few years and the ownership terms, not the headline.

How much will it cost, and when do I find out?

Before you pay anything. After a short call about your trade, your patch and what you've got online now, you get one fixed price for a written scope, and it doesn't grow once the work starts. The pricing page lists what's in both packages. Essentials from £595, Business from £995, and our cost guide explains what trade websites cost across the UK market and why quotes vary so much.

Who owns the website if I stop paying?

You do. The build is paid for once and the site belongs to you from the day it goes live: the domain is registered in your name, and the files, words and photos are yours to take anywhere. The only monthly plan is hosting and care, and if you leave it you keep the site, which is the difference from pay-monthly builders where the site is rented and goes dark when the payments stop.

Do I still need my own website if I'm on Checkatrade or MyBuilder?

A directory sends you leads while you pay for it, and on the same screen the customer can see your competitors. Your own site works alongside it: it's where a recommendation gets checked, where Google sends people searching for your trade in your town, and where the only number on the page is yours. Keep the listing if it pays for itself, and read our guide on whether Checkatrade is worth it before you renew.

How long does it take, and what happens once it's live?

You get the timescale in writing with the price, before any deposit; what stretches it is almost always waiting on photos, a scan of a certificate or a yes on the design, not the build itself. Once the site is live, calls and quote requests come straight to you, the domain and site are yours, and you can add the hosting and care plan so updates, backups and small edits are handled for you. SEO is a separate monthly plan if you want more of the work to come from Google.
