Web Design for Tradespeople UK

Websites for UK trades — electricians, plumbers, builders, joiners — that capture enquiries while you’re on the tools.

The problem

Why tradespeople & contractors need a better website.

  1. 01

    Enquiries get lost overnight

    No one’s answering the phone at 8pm — and the website doesn’t catch the lead either.

  2. 02

    No portfolio of completed jobs

    Prospects want to see real work in real homes. A list of services isn’t enough.

  3. 03

    Google Local outranks your own site

    Without proper reviews, area pages and a fast site, you lose the local pack to competitors with weaker work but stronger SEO.

What we build

What we build for tradespeople & contractors.

Job-by-job portfolio

Before/after photos, project summaries and area tags — proof that converts.

Area-of-coverage map

Visual coverage area + service-area pages tuned for local SEO.

Instant enquiry form

Three-field form that captures the basics fast — and emails you immediately.

Google reviews integration

Pull live reviews onto the homepage and key landing pages.

AI review request automation

Automated, on-brand follow-ups after every job to build the reputation you actually deserve.

Why us

For people who are on site, not behind a desk

Trade websites have to work without you babysitting them. We build sites that don’t need weekly maintenance and a CMS that lets you upload a finished-job photo from your phone in 30 seconds.

Pricing

What this typically costs.

Most trades start with a Launch Page (from £799). Larger firms with multiple service lines step up to a Business Website (from £1,999). AI Review Request Automation is a £99 add-on.

Why most tradesperson websites fail to get the phone ringing

  • No clear service area — prospects don’t know if you cover their town
  • No before/after photos — the single most persuasive asset a trade can have
  • Testimonials buried on a "Testimonials" page nobody clicks
  • No instant quote form — every enquiry is a manual phone call at the wrong time
  • No Google reviews visible — while competitors run 4.9-star profiles right next to yours in the map pack

What actually gets a tradesperson website to convert

  • Clear service area with a proper map and list of covered postcodes
  • A gallery of real before/after photos from actual jobs (with permission)
  • Testimonials surfaced alongside the service they relate to — not siloed
  • A three-field quote form on every service page
  • Qualifications prominent — Gas Safe, NICEIC, Part P, City & Guilds — where relevant
  • Emergency contact number or WhatsApp for out-of-hours enquiries

Local SEO matters more for tradespeople than almost any other sector

The Google Local Pack is where a large share of trade enquiries begin. That means Google Business Profile is at least as important as your own site — properly categorised, weekly-posted, review-solicited. We build local SEO foundations into every trade website and hand you a maintenance rhythm that keeps you in the top three of the map pack for your core service-area terms.

What we include in the standard tradesperson package

  • Service area map with postcode coverage
  • Before/after photo gallery structured by job type
  • Three-field quote form on every service page
  • Google Reviews integration pulled live
  • Qualification and accreditation badges (Gas Safe, NICEIC, etc.)
  • Emergency contact click-to-call above the fold
  • Local SEO foundations for map-pack ranking
  • Google Business Profile setup and maintenance rhythm

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Word-of-mouth already keeps us busy — do we need a website?
Increasingly yes. Even referred customers now Google you before phoning. A website that reinforces the referral (photos, reviews, accreditations) converts far higher than one that undermines it.
How do you help us rank in the local map pack?
Google Business Profile setup, review request rhythm, service-area pages tuned to how customers actually search ("emergency plumber [town]"), and a fast site — because Google’s local ranking weights include page-speed and mobile performance.
Can we upload our own before/after photos?
Yes. We build a phone-friendly CMS so you or your team can upload finished-job photos from site in about 30 seconds each.
Can we add more service areas later?
Yes. The template is built to scale — each new town/postcode gets a properly optimised location page, not a duplicate-content spin.
Do you work with sole traders or just larger firms?
Both. Sole traders typically fit our Launch Page (from £799); larger multi-team firms usually want a Business Website (from £1,999) with proper team profiles and service-line pages.
