Websites for handymen, built around the jobs you actually take on

Your pages, the features on them, the final price and the timescale, in writing before you pay a deposit. Hosting, care and any ongoing SEO are listed separately, so you can see what is one-off and what is monthly. On the Business package the first year of hosting and care is included.

Yes. The quote form asks what the job is, where it is and how soon they need it, and lets them attach photos, so you can price most small jobs from a picture instead of a site visit.

List the work you want more of, and be just as clear about what you do not take on. A long undifferentiated list tells Google nothing and tells the customer even less. A page each for flat-pack assembly, mounting, door adjustments and gutter clearing gives both of them something specific, and a short line about gas and electrical work saves you the calls you cannot accept.

Put the basis of your pricing on the site even if you cannot put a figure on every job. An hourly rate, a half-day rate or a minimum charge tells the customer whether to ring, and it stops you quoting the same three answers on the phone all week. Trades who hide it get more calls and fewer jobs, because the people ringing have not agreed to anything yet.

You can, and for a handyman starting out it may be enough for a while. Where the free builders fall down is the parts that win small jobs: a number that is tappable in the first screen, a quote form that accepts photographs, a page for each job type so search can find you, and somebody to fix it when the platform changes. What we build is yours outright, including the domain, the pages and the photos on them.

One fixed figure, agreed in writing before any deposit. For a handyman it moves with how many job types get their own page and whether you want a separate section for landlords and letting agents. The packages on our pricing page set out what is included; what trade websites usually cost across the UK, and why two quotes can be so far apart, is in our cost guide.

Not for a real handyman client yet, but the case study at the top of this page is The Little Job Co., a demo we designed and built for handyman work: a fictional business you can click through, with illustrative photography. The trade sites we can point you to today are a decorator, a landscaper, a groundworks contractor and a Liverpool plumbing and heating firm, all built by JW Digital Services Ltd, which runs this site. We are happy to walk you through what would change for handyman work, where the job list and the pricing basis do most of the selling.
